Finally Friday
It's Friday, and there should be a glass (or a bottle) of wine in my near future. Kicked off the day with a new business call that went well. This is good as sales have been verrry slow! But, pitched a creative solution to the client that met his needs. Feels good. And we met in Starbucks, and they didn't let me down either after the week's earlier slip up. Even the annoying and obnoxiously loud construction taking place in our open atrium building seems to have stopped. Or the five Tylenol finally kicked in. Whatever - it's after 3p Friday. Signing off!

WTF
It occurred to me today that there were a number of small items pissing me off. I don't want this post to sound angry or bitter. I just want to vent so I can get on with my day and not pay my pissed off mood forward. These were my WTF moments that I'm sure we can all relate to:
#5. Starbucks personnel - if you drop the little sleeve that covers my paper cup on the floor - don't pick it up and put it on my cup.
#4. Dear fellow Starbucks customer: If the creamer is empty; and you need some; oh - and I need some - don't just sit it on the counter empty. The SB person who dropped my sleeve on the floor would be happy to get us a new one.
#3. I love cyclists - I'm one of them. I don't ride when it's cold, but I appreciate the hardy (read crazy) cyclists who bundle up and ride all winter. But really - do you think you're going to win if we collide when you appear from nowhere right in front of my moving car?!? Especially when it's icy on the roads?! No. the answer is no.
#2. And to the steroid induced muscle heads at my gym. I go there to stay reasonably petite. I will never be as big, bulky and strong as you. So really - must you leave five, six, and sometimes seven, 45 lb plates on the weight machines?!
#1 And my number 1 pet peeve for today.... Actually, I feel better. I'll leave this one for anyone reading this to fill in.
This felt really good. I think I'll have many sequels to the WTF post!!
