Dear God help me. I was just "reprimanded" by my boss, essentially, for using the restroom. I worked 12 straight hours without a break yesterday, and have only left my desk twice (#1: glass of water, leading to #2: restroom) in the nine hours I have been here today. All this is due to the fact that I am cleaning up the mess of others' incompetence. Of course, the COO of the company calls for my boss while I was away (and apparently my boss is not sure what those buttons on the phone are for). So, I get to come back to a snide comment about how I'm "never around."

This is just a snippet of my daily life here at "Micro-Managment for Dummies." Sersiously, I have been looking for a new gig for several months now, but I am about to have an embolism. I am trying to be a big girl here, but a duck's back only holds so much water. Anymore and my electronic monitor ankle bracelet will short circuit.

I can't help it if I had to use the restroom.....after all the miracles I've been demanded to pull out of my ass, what can you expect?

Hmmm.....On my next bathroom break, (scheduled for August 30th), perhaps I will read my copy of "Illinois Department of Labor Bulletin for Employers and Employees."
