So Many Topics... So little Time

I swear this post is almost not going to get done. I wrote for over an hour and it did not save what I did. But I am going to do it again, even tho I am pissed as hell right now. A lot of things happen today I am trying to sort out what to talk about first.

First Topic: Aren't You New?
This is becoming my pet peeve at the moment, New booties who come to the job and start acting like they have been there for fucking ever. They come in with this attitude that they shit don't stink. Word to the wise, when you come to work for a company, ACT like you new. Don't come in acting like you own the place. It always amazes me how ppl come in getting on aim, playing cards, Yeah YOU, sleeping with any and everything that they can. They come in rolling the eyes, talking shit to the supervisors, fighting in the call center, taking over the TV. (yeah I am hatin because I don't have one lol) But seriously when you get here get to know your JOB first before trying to fit the fuck in. Word of advice don't come in making enemies before you make friends. I understand if your not here to make friends, or don't care what anyone thinks. Truth is many don't like me and guess what, I don't like you either and don't give a damn what you think about my fat, nappy haired, black ass. You are NEW!! I don't care if you have a friend, partner, loved one, bootie call, or even if you worked at another office. Here your NEW baby!! Ruel (my little brother at work) and I always laugh at those who forget they came in a minute ago. See, I like Raashaad and Willie (ooo blog mentions lol), they came in acting new and because of it gain friends. Even Rashaad friend who is in training came in talking and socializing, BUT he has a cool persona and he is likable. Key word LIKABLE!! Don't come in rolling your eyes at me, Trust me I am not the one. You can either be here and be liked, or be here and be hated. Trust me every bitch and motha fucka who came here with a tude is either gone and on the unemployment line or ignored. Real Talk. Again.. ACT NEW!!

Second Topic: People and Aim.
I am enjoying those who are on Aim and on unrelated company sites. Guess what sweetie, Honey, Darling, Dummie we aren't suppose to be on it. Mind you I don't get on aim, I just yell across the room for those who I want to have a convo with. Truth be told almost everyone in the call center is on unrelated job sites and or aim. The sups know, they really could care less as long as your doing your job and playing it safe. I don't care either just be smart. Some of you just don't care. You leave your aim up when you go to the bathroom, go for your breaks, your lunch HOUR, while going to get your soda, coffee or whatever you get from the breakroom. Pull it down ! Today a mentor came to a rep and told him, "if you see someone who you never seen before here then take down your aim". DUH!!! this is not rocket science ladies and gentlemen. Can I explain your messing it up for your fellow employees. All of us get bored and want to just site search but when "you people" cant even pull down what your looking at when your not at your computer, or when a supervisor is at your DESK!!! you are making it hard on the rest. All you have to do is pull it down, however, in YOUR case, just get off it. Read a book, go to C3 or you will find yourself in the unemployment line with the ppl who forgot they are NEW!!

Third topic: Vista Programs.
Vista is the worse program KNOWN to man right now. I am not sure why they made such a non user friendly program. But I truly hate it. I have an XP and my old XP far better then my New Vista program. I didn't want a vista but my baby got it for me for our 8 year anniversary. (love you boo). It has become a challenge for me to say the least. It has really gotten hard with me making clothes in the on line game I play. I am finding it hard to design and created on it which makes me think I may be getting on my old pc to do most of my work. This is money now peeps I cant have that. A few friends have tired to get on the game I just mention and cant because of the vista program. I even had a trouble downloading the game I play called WOW until Dennis discovered to run it through systems administration. Per Denise the maker of Vista is trying to make the Vista more like the Mac computers. I don't give a damn who they are trying to copy from. Make it stop, Make it stop. I hate vista!!

Fourth topic: Illegal cable:
Today I received a phone call that I started to share while at work but decided to blog it instead. A guy called and his first question was "Does your company still give rewards out for turning in people who have illegal cable services". This made my eye brow raise because I know that over 10 years ago we use to give some kind of reward out. This was during the time when installers were hooking ppl up with "hot boxes" and they were getting all the services without charge. (I had one 20 years ago.. awww the memories). I politely told him no but we would be interested in who was enjoying our wonderful cable services without paying for it. He then begin to give me information. He told me his ex girlfriends mother was getting illegal cable services. He also told me, his ex girlfriends brother had hooked the mother up in the garage. He then said the mother had her cable disconnected for nonpayment over a year ago and the same day they hooked her up with illegal cable. WOW!!! Snitch!! He then gave me his ex girlfriends name, address and phone number. Then he gave me her mothers name, address and phone number. Sure enough moms was disconnected for non pay over a year ago for the tune of $255.00. He then begin to tell me how his ex and her family were crack dealers and how the whole street was full of addicts. ( call Dateline, the world needs to know there is more then porn in the Valley). He told me that they made the crack in the same garage as the illegal services were being held hostage. WOW! SNITCH!! He confessed how his girl had cut up his clothes, took his money from his bank, and just did him "dirty". So I wrote down the info, and yes, OH HELL YES, I did a special request for illegal services and to top it off I did a issue track. Why, because my friends if I cant make money off you then your going to get your illegal cable turned OFF. Oh and more word of advice. Don't have your brother hook up your mother with illegal cable services in the same garage you sell crack and then do your ex boyfriend "dirty" because he will call me and I will have yo cable CUT!!!

Fifth Topic: JayZ
OK all of you been laughing at me about wanting JayZ for Christmas (all but Ruel and Aron because I told them to get me Tickle Me Elmo). I want Jay Z, I don't care if he is in his rockawear briefs or butt nakey. Is my husband looking at this. Who cares it's HOV. Now you all know what I want. TRUE friends would do whatever it takes to make that happen for ME.

Sixth Topic: From the Heart
This morning while my younger son "Adonus" was bringing me into work we started talking about Christmas. I was telling him how I believed in Santa until I was 14 years old, YES 14. Each Christmas I would write out a list of things I wanted and each Christmas I would get what I wanted. I remember a year I asked for a sewing machine and Santa, she got it. My Santa was my grandmother. She raised me from age 2 until I moved in with my mother at age 16. She was my strength, my life line, my mentor, my best friend, my supporter, my HERO! What she lacked in education she made up in life experience. She always help those who were probably better off then she was. She was a strong woman with the wisdom that surpassed any college grad. She told me how much she admired my outspokenness alt ho she never allowed me to speak it freely to our relatives. LOL. I wish right now I could see her so she can see I didn't turn out so bad and I that I am happy where I am in my life right now. If there is a heaven she is there. I miss that old lady and I love her more and more each day.

11 shopping Days left until Christmas kiddies... Jay Z is waiting

Ok Let me try to make it sound funny cuz Phil took FOREVER to say it: So there was an assembly line and they were doing quality control on Tickle Me Elmos when one of the ladies in the assembly line caught the manager's attention. He calls her in his office and the lady comes in with needles, thread and a bag of marbles. When he asked her what she was doing sowing the marbles to Elmos' private parts, she replied "Well, I thought you asked me to TEST TICKLES"...
Ok so maybe it's not the best joke ever, what you guys think?
