Why I need a vacation

Coworker standing right by the creamers - "I think it's time the coffee creamers that expired Feb 2 were thrown out." Looks at me, walks upstairs.

Coworker standing right by the box of paper, which is where it has been since I started working here - "Where can I get a ream of paper."

Coworker trying to mail some bills at the beginning of every single month- "Can you give me an envelope?" And every single time I show him where the envelopes are...suprise, in the supply closet.

I do not understand this inability to do anything for themselves. It's really not that hard. Maybe it's too far "beneath" them. Whatever it is, I hope they enjoy a week of self-reliance cause I'm not going to give them ANY way to contact me while I'm gone *insert evil cackle*

Watched West Wing last night, basically the only show I really keep up on. What can I say, it's nice to dream.

Anyway, part of the storyline was a school in Saudi Arabia burned down with 14 girls in it. The girls were not allowed to leave and rescuers were not allowed to save them because they did not have the proper attire to be seen in public and the religious police would not allow it. I was a little riled about Saudi Arabia being the target, but my dad was very upset (FYI for those who don't know, we lived there for 4.5 years in the early eighties.) I asked what was so upsetting and he proceeded to make this very good point (which I'm pretty sure will rile some of you.)

Somebody give me a plausible excuse not to come into work tomorrow...
