Saturday at home.

An actual slow Saturday. Which I'm fine with. It's been nice to sit around the house and do nothing. I should clean and pick up, but...meh.

So a work story. This past Tuesday I was sick. Friday, Talitha asks me which day it was that I was sick. I tell her that it was Tuesday. She then asks if I was in on Sunday. I said, "No, I never come to work on Sunday". She then tells me that they are running a Websense report. Websense is a proxy that blocks websites that an employer can deem not worthy of employees looking. It also keeps track of all sites you go to.

Talitha then tells me that it must be broke or something is wrong with it because it says that I used the internet at work on Sunday and then on Tuesday. I was nowhere near the building on either day. Talitha then tells me that she's going to ask Dave about it, maybe something is wrong.

So, a bit later, Talitha tells my team that if they want to see the Websense reports, to see if we stay on task, we can. I decide I want to see mine. So I go over to her and say, "I want to see mine, especially I want to know what I was looking at on the days I wasn't here." She then says "I don't know what is going on with that, it's really weird, and Dave doesn't know either, all he could say is that we should check the security tapes and see if you came in on those days and aren't telling us."

So, at first, I didn't really think much about it. Then I got thinking about it and it kind of annoyed me what Dave said.(Dave by the way is the manager, the boss.) I told a few people. Then when I had lunch with Carmen, I told him about it. I came back from lunch and sat back down at my computer and then realized that I was really mad about it, that I didn't really appreciate that comment. Dave basically called me a liar, and said he trusted a really shitty program that we use, and have a lot of trouble with, over me. So I decided to tell Talitha that I wasn't too happy about that. I almost went directly to Dave, but then thought, well, he didn't say it directly to me, and I didn't want to get someone in trouble for maybe saying something they shouldn't.

Talitha then told me that she said I did have a reason to be upset, that it was uncalled for on Dave's part, and she said something to him about that. She apologized because she brought it up to Dave(I said she was just doing her job, she had no reason to apologize). She then said she'd say something to Dave about it again if I wanted her to. I decided that I was happy with someone knowing I was upset about it, and plus, in my opinion, Dave's a wanker. He seems like a nice enough guy, but doesn't seem to be someone that cares if he's upset the people under him. So instead of butting heads and me getting more and more frustrated, I decided to just let it drop at Talitha.

Other than that the week has been pretty decent. Heather got me started on Old Chicago's World Beer Tour thing. They do "mini-tours" occasionally. Her and I go on Wed. typically because it's buy 2, get 1 free. Well, this past Wed., our waitress either made a mistake or liked us a lot. She gave us a bunch more than she should of free, plus she let me cheat on the mini-tour, so I got the t-shirt at the end before I was suppose to. She was really slow though at taking the bill though. That made us a bit upset. Plus I was getting really tired, and it didn't help when Heather will dump beer she doesn't like or doesn't want anymore in my glass. That just makes me extra tired.

Oh, South Park with World of Warcraft in it. That was great. Haven't seen South Park in forever.

That's about it, really.

Oh, I got a postcard from my friend Amy who lives in Japan. It was from Singapore. The guy on the front should be an Arcadia character. I should show it to you Carmen.

The end.
