Other Upsetting Things

Other upsetting things about coming back to work:

1.  I really have no idea what's going on.  Like even a little bit.  I don't know where we stand with which projects, who we're still working with, or which projects have been awarded.

2.  Inevitably, they let someone else touch my files while I was gone.  I can't find anything.

3.  Someone (or a group of someones) has pilfered most of my office supplies.  I can't even find a bloody pen.

4.  The work kitties have grown up.  And since I wasn't here to tame them, they're wild as all get out.  At least there's one of the orange ones who will kind of stick around.  He likes to keep his paws in the water bowl where it's nice and cool.

5.  My boss has been in the hospital for the past week.  No one knows when he's coming back to work.  Couldn't I have taken off till he comes back?!

6.  Both of my plants are dead.

7.  My boss, in my absence, has sneakily moved his billions of binders back into my clean filing cabinets.  I don't think this is a game he's going to want to play with me.

8.  My back still hurts and having to sit straight up for a prolonged period of time seems to be making it worse.

9.  People keep acting like they don't know who I am.  It was marginally funny the first time....not so much the ninth.

10.  I really see no reason why I couldn't bring Carolyn to work with me.  I'd just set up the pack 'n play by my desk.  Most of the people I work with aren't even in their offices during the day.  She wouldn't bother anyone.
