"It started right up for me this morning," said my mechanic. I figured maybe there was a clog in the fuel line that got knocked loose going up and down the flatbed, but on the way home, it started running rough when I had to idle at lights.

Right now, it's sitting in my driveway. Kat's coming by in a while and we're going up to Walmart so I can deposit enough cash to pay (some of) my bills. Then...I don't know. I just don't know. I'm so crazy with stress I think I'm going to go blind. I'm sick to my stomach with dread.

All this because some idiotic pencil-pusher has decreed some arbitrary number for call handle times. None of this, NONE OF THIS would be happening if I was working from home. That is, the 2500 extra miles I've had to log since May have helped kill my car, drain my wallet AND stress me out. Thank you very much!

Am I rambling? Probably. I've already told PJ and AI, if anything happens to me, if I keel over in the call center, get creamed by a semi, or wind up in a rubber room, I authorize them to sue the bejezus out of my employer. It's all their fault.

No, alas, I was recalled to the building in May. That instantly started sucking $100-120 each month since then for gas, and now car repairs.

Thursday is okay, but it will have to be between 11:30 and 1:30. I'm usually up around 11 and my rule of thumb is ON US1 by 2:00 and I don't have to endanger myself or others to be there. As long as I can tell him what I need before I go and can hand over the cash, it's all good. I know I don't have to be there to supervise.

Just hung up from Ben (he was at night class) and he said he will be there between those hours on Thursday.

Whew! That's one less thing to worry about, thanks!
