Things that have sucked goats:
UPS lost my shipment of T-Shirts. Like, fucking Poof. over $800 worth of tshirts, evaporated between Illinois and Maimi. They claim they have no idea where they are.
The banner stands I had in my cube were mislabeled. I needed the 36" x 84", I brought the 24" x 84".
I have one of the coolest coworkers every, however, and she's sent them out, and 5:30, priority overnight to me.
Lets hope they come in time for the 1 pm show tomorrow.
I gave my "team" a picture to use of me in a presentation I have have to participate in. I gavge them the one of me walking away down the rampart walls in Engalnd, Very tasteful, no?
Apparently, that wasn't "Teamy" enough for them, but rather than tell me, they dig out a horrible picture of me in a F*cking lobster bib taken at last year's meeting and insert that instead. They don't tell me, but let me find out when we are doing our run-through.
Awful respectful of me, ehh? Never occured to these people that I generally don't like pictures of me anyway, and that perhaps there was a reason WHY I gave them the one I did?
No one ever asks Why, and it's beginning to piss me off.
Flames. Around my face.
Things that have been fairly pleasent:
Getting lost with the visual merch people with the "help" of a Garmin, and going to Home Depot and Office Max with them.
The 2 Rum and Cokes Other people bought for me.
The giant 4' x 6' map I had made and had to mount down here actually didn't come out half bad.
Going to bed now, and billing them for the last 16.5 hours.
- K.
PS - Miami is hot and sticky. Not convinced the CSI: Maimi portrayal is very accurate, though.
