WORK
The first guy that called for Accounts Payable today I gave the benefit of the doubt to. After all, there are inevitably instances of suckiness where people call for my supervisor (who is in charge of accounting) while she is on vacation. The overlap sucks, but it happens.
And really, it was inevitable and okay, because someone else could help them.
The inundation of Accounting calls that have happened since? Uh uh. No. I know what this means. It means that it's that time of the month to call about past due bills. Except these are folks that know that we can't pay them until our client pays us. There's a Terms of Agreement thing going on with our clients and the papers/radio stations/magazines know this.
And the thing is, getting snippy (and really, I get why they're snippy, but will they deal with facts?) does no good, because even if the client finally pays us this week, no one can cut a check to pay these vendors. Because the accounting person is out!
I just want the ten million people who are calling me to stop. *grrrr*

Bridal Shower Shopping
Just so everyone knows - if you get married and I know you, you get lingerie. *eg* I try to tailor to specific tastes and specific personalities (just ask
sullivanlane, for my evil is fun).
I have a coworker that is getting married. I informed her that she would be getting lingerie and that I needed to know her sizes. I'm not subtle. So, she's 5'5", tiny as can be (I NEVER, at my smallest, could get into XS panties), has boobs (really, think Marcia Cross except shorter and with less hips), and has long flowy red hair. Except it's not vibrant red but this soft red. It's a very unusual color.
So long story shorter than I could make it, I got Victoria's Secret lingerie for her today, because she doesn't own lingerie. At all. And is an artist. So she likes pretty things.
What did I get her?
This little number.
It's even prettier in person. I almost went with a turquoise number that would have looked fabulous, but this one was to die for.
So be prepared,
dragonsinger. You have no clue what I'm going to get you with. *insert evil laughter here*
