The budget schedules are in!

Alright. Wow. I've been waiting all month for this: The budget schedule is here. My manager just came over to give me the good news. This month we only have (total) twelve budgets due (last month it was about thirty). The bad news is that my two budgets are due Friday. That's this friday, only two days away.

I'm not worried though, they look like small funds, and I am getting better and better at these budgets. Oh, but we also have to keep archiving. We boxed up so much stuff last week we had to order a new batch of boxes. So that's another project that will "keep me busy." Right.

happy budget cycle

Gotta tell ya...reading about your job scares me. Coming straight out of college and working with lots of budgets? Or even knowing what a budget schedule is? Color me impressed.

haha
hahahahaha
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

wow.
that is so ridiculously not impressive I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
THERE IS NOTHING TO THIS JOB.
really.
I think the whole reason it's salaried is so we're compensated for all this wasted time.
We're not being paid to do the work,we're being paid to not do anything else with all this free time. If I really broke my day down the time I spent blogging would be worth like twenty bucks an hour.

hahaha.
good one.

Bob Slydell: You see, what we're trying to do is get a feeling for how people spend their time at work so if you would, would you walk us through a typical day, for you?
Peter Gibbons: Yeah.
Bob Slydell: Great.
Peter Gibbons: Well, I generally come in at least fifteen minutes late, ah, I use the side door - that way Lumbergh can't see me, heh - after that I sorta space out for an hour.
Bob Porter: Da-uh? Space out?
Peter Gibbons: Yeah, I just stare at my desk, but it looks like I'm working. I do that for probably another hour after lunch too, I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work.

um. yes.

it's not that I don't appreciate readership or comments, it's that I don't appreciate unoriginality. throw something creative into that comment, dude. anything, even "hey is it like: ..." would be better than a straight up quote.

anyway. how's pa treatin' you.

Man, I just got SERVED. *sniff* PA is good...could be warmer, but good.

Note to self: no more movie quotes.

Tom said...

you did not just say you got "served" on my blog, did you? that's ridiculous. you're now oh-for-two.

let me clarify: movie quotes aren't bad, but original comments you think up on your own are better. straight up movie quotes (or song lyrics, or whatever) are the worst. I don't go my blog when I want to watch office space, I go to my xbox (which doubles as my dvd player). the point is, stick with the style of your earlier comments, especially any that say you might be in love with me, young though I am.

-peace out yo-
