Annie are you ok?

Later That Day

later that day I recieved a post it with the following:

Christina,

(followed by a tiny classified ad clipping that said:)

Hmmm  . . my feet are pretty nasty and I'm only half Asian. Where does that leave me???

Lovely Co-workers

I got to my desk this morning to find the following on my desk:

Christina: F.Y.I.

followed by a newspaper clipping with the following:

"FEMALE SOCIAL DRINKERS CAN EARN $$$

Women of color and white woment wanted for a study on alcohol and social interactions between men and women. Participants must be unattached female social drinkers, age 21-35. Will be paid $10/hr up to $65. Call  . . . blah blah blah . . . Part of a project at the University of Washington Alcohol and Drug Abuse Institute."

Why me? Is there free alcohol? . . . .

Gopher

I got caught doing the gopher today at work by the Human Resources Director. For those of you who don't know what a gopher is, it is when you pop your head up above your cubicle wall to look around and then sit back down in your chair. You know you do it . . .

The good thing is that we can all laugh about it afterwards and then other people pop their heads up to see what the laughing is all about. God Bless Cubicles and their creators.

However, me and a certain friend of mine might be kissing the cubicle life goodbye. Hello office with a window. A window that looks out onto a shady alley. An alley where homeless crack addicts sleep. And across the alley, a place where squatters live and furtively peer out of windows.  Ahhhh . . . life is good.

Sex Ed

I realized today that it's not normal for an eleven year old to recieve sex education classes from their church in Alabama. When asked if it was useful . . . I wasn't sure. So the person asked if I had had any unwanted pregnancies since those classes and I haven't! I do, however, remember asking my sunday school teacher why, if god forgives everyone, is there a hell and she told me to be quiet and continue coloring. I guess some information is a little more sensitive that others. But, if I am on a need-to-know basis, I guess it makes sense.

It's True

It's true . . . according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, women make 60 - 80% less money than men do who work in the same field.

I fought with my brother on this issue and now, about 4 years later . . . vindication is mine!! I guess, at the time, I was too lazy to look up the numbers. I was probably depressed because I make a crappy wage! Well, I'll keep my extra X chromosome thank you very much.

Men suck. Except for my dad. He's pretty cool . . . Ok, my boyfriend's pretty cool too. But that's it! Other than that, Men suck. Well, my brother's not that bad. Plus there was that homeless guy on the street who told me I was pretty. So he's probably not that bad either. Although, I'm pretty sure he's a crack head. . . . Eh, at least he has good taste.

Bus Mishaps

Yesterday my umbrella kept opening in the bus while i was fumbling for my bus pass. This morning I almost fell down in the aisle. I did manage to dump my lunch everywhere, though. Oy.

Dude, where are my friends

It's kind of sad to be on friendster with only two friends. I swear I have more . . . seriously.
