today topped the list of crazy days at work I've had
first I had the creepiest guy ever.
I don't even want to talk about that one.
then it was slow, and there was an unexpected delivery, yeah whatever.
then suddenly I smell gas. like bad, really strong.
So I go next door and ask the convience store if they smell it, and the dollar store, and they smell it too..
so I call boss man and say that I am gonna go ahead and call the fire department and the gas company to check it out. he's like no I'll be down to check it out.
yeah he doesn't want to call cause he did some wiring in the lights without a permit/licence cause he's not a licenced electiritian and he doesn't want to get charged. I was pisssed. I nearly walked out forever right then. The other units in the building are all a little bit dumbassed and couldn't care less about inhaling noxious gasses or getting exploded. WTF is wrong with people?
so mel and I are all pissed, and our boss goes out back to see if he can find a source for this smell, I switch on the exhaust fan (mistake it seems) and wait for him. he sees a repair man of some sort who doesn't want to talk and speeds off in his car at first chance, this was enough for him to finally let me call the firedepartment. we stand outside and wait.
like 8 firetrucks show up and so a whole inspection of the whole building and thing we're crazy, so I send them over to the other units to confirm they also smell it. They think I am smelling someone painting so they drag me up the fire excape to confirm that I know what paint smells like.
meanwhile we're not allowed to have anyone in the store, including ourselves and people want to shop, and whatever. otherpeople are stopping me and asking if the animals are okay. duh. yes of course. if I had no concern for the animals I likely would have walked out before. people think we don't think about these things. my number one concern is those funny little buggers.
whatever. anyway nothing was found, but the chief told me to call if I smelled something funny again, which I didn't, and I hope I don't again.
then we went to wal mart and spent money...
whatever.
right now I need to just curl up with my kitty and have a sleep.
love you all..
