Things that sh*t me the seventeenth

Our company has shut down like many others and I am the on call person working through.

It has been an absolute nightmare. Everything is out of my purview and everything is urgent and I am a piece of shit for not being able to help anyone.

Fielding calls on my personal mobile because my boss has distributed it to every staff member in Australia who has in turn distributed it to every client they have.

I am managing multiple inboxes and I am the biggest disgrace according to everyone.

Merry ****ing Christmas

We shut down over Christmas but they leave a few staff on. Other people have also volunteered luckily. I suppose their logic is that they get two short working weeks and they save their leave for other times of the year but I would most definitely prefer to eat 5 days annual leave for 2 weeks off and not have to deal with every other campaigners problems while they are on holiday.

Sorry to hear this.

Might be worth talking to your boss about.

Get a certificate and take sick leave for the week.

Don't let those campainers bring you down (Bruce).
I'm sure you wanna go with Dermie and run right though them.


A bit sad more Aussie business closing down.
 
Christmas seems to bring out the worst in people. Cars tailgating. At Dan Murphys a guy unthinkingly reversed out of his spot and blocked the whole car park. At Aldi a guy started reversing into me as I walked behind his car. In Aldi a woman put her shopping on the conveyor belt then went back into the shop to get some more.

You nearly need 2 slips and a gully at the Aldi checkout to stop any flying objects from those checkout ninjas

Part 2. Woman in Coles is standing next to a full trolley that is blocking access to the shelf I needed to get to. "Do you mind if I move this trolley?" I asked. With a scowl on her face she replied "It's not mine."
 
I'm trying to work out of this shits me, confuses me, really creepy or some combination of the lot

My mum received a text message today from an unknown number & the sign off name isn't familiar to either of us - the person thanked my mum for the Xmas card apparently sent from her & my dad (mentioned him by name also) and asked how they were both going

This is where it gets weirder - mum hasn't sent any Xmas cards this year, and while she's had her mobile number for roughly 20 years, my dad died 30 years ago

So anyone who knows mum's number should be aware of the family situation - not sure if it's some sort of sick joke or what, but def feels off

My mum once had someone ring to say happy birthday
Wrong number but right name, situation he was trying to call his daughter and her dad was dead.

He was mortified

Random shit happens sometimes

Not saying that this is the reason why, but apparently scammers sometimes send out random messages just to get a response back so that the number registers as 'real' which then doesn't instantly mark it as sus with carriers when the numbers starts sending bulk messages

That wouldn't surprise me

Thankfully mum is smart enough to not reply to unknown numbers, and as Dogs_R_Us said above the number gets blocked
 
For those following along, my poor 18 month old started showing symptoms this afternoon.

Woke up tonight with a fever at 39.1c and projectile vomited all over his room and mother.

I know there are worse things going on but I’m so bloody sad. Nothing worse than seeing one of your kids struggling and being able to do **** all about it.
