Tuesday Troubles
October 17th, 2006 . by CaryWhy are you posting, Cary? Did something happen at work?
Yes, something happened at work.
Friday, we were scheduled to have a new air compressor wired in. You know, cut off power to the building, the power company comes in, does it’s thing, and power is restored; and they all lived happily ever after.
Except the electrician decided that Friday was a bad day to play with electricity. So, he didn’t show up. Everyone else did, which would have worked out quite well, since the shop shuts down at lunch time on Fridays and they all go home. No power? No problem! No one was there to be interrupted, anyway!
The hook up was rescheduled.
For today.
Between 9 and 11, which is really convenient for everyone except those who depend on power for their jobs. Like, the designers, who’s computers are useless without excited electrons.
You wimp, I remember back in the day we could draw up the cabinets by hand, and the shop would build them no problem.
You wacko, I remember back in the day that could happen because the people building the cabinets were trained to read the papers and could actually communicate in the language they were written in!
I digress…
So, I head back to work at 11, and ready or not they promised we could punch in at 11. We’ll see.
I pray God’s blessings on each and every one of you, even if you don’t have the same political beliefs that I do.
Hmmmmm, I’d have a hard time maintaining my composure in that situation, but I guess I would have no choice, since I cannot shoot bolts of electricity out of my butt. Good to hear from you Cary; too bad it’s not under happier circumstances….
Oh, it’s happy, John – I’ll just be short hours this week, but I got to post!
But, you know, God will provide. He always has, and He always will, take care of His faithful.
Sorry to hear about that Cary. It’s a shame that they cut your check short because they couldn’t manage to schedule things properly.
In the end, though, Sue, God is in control, and with the release of my jury duty for tomorrow morning, I won’t be short on my check at all – I’ll be able to make up any missing hours and we will all live happily ever after.
I love a happy ending
Me, too, p1.
