Today ain't my day.

First off... I had the most irritating dream last night (or should I say this morning... slept around 3am na). That's why when I woke up, I was cranky and ultimately pissed.

It was a busy day as usual... and I was movin' along just fine when IT happened.

Argh!

Okay... maybe I overreacted. But you see, I hate it when people use other people to get me to do things. In this situation, the person used was my boss. I-name drop ba talaga? Grrrrrr.

I don't want to go into details but... in a nutshell, there's this certain someone (Person #1) who was asking me to write about a talent (Person #2) we have. It's been discussed ages ago that I cannot possibly do it since my load is up to my neck already and I told them that we should just outsource the job. Anyhoo--I told them that they should allot a certain budget so the writer can start working on the articles already.

That happened over six months ago! Person #1 didn't request the budget. Ergo, no article. And today, they (Person #1 and his assistant) were expecting me to come up with a comprehensive biography for Person #2. They told me that my boss "ordered" it.

Like DUH! Are you kidding me?!?!?!?!

To make a long story short, I was called into "the principal's office" (a.k.a. my boss' office) and she asked me why I didn't want to do the job.

Hello?!?!! I didn't say I didn't want to do it. I said I COULDN'T DO IT ANYMORE. There's a difference.

I explained to my boss that I even gave them the option of having the job outsourced but they never got back to me regarding it. If their problem was the budget (they claimed that no budget was allotted for such things as these), why didn't they talk to Finance about it? Haven't they heard of budget re-alignment?

In the end, it was decided that the writing job will be outsourced. And my boss even thanked me for coming up with the idea (like hello?!?!?!!? I have been reiterating that to Person #1 since last year!!!). She said she'll talk to Person #1 about it.

Great. That ruined my day. Seriously.

On a lighter note... last night we watched JR's gig at err... I forgot the name. Hehe. Basta, it's this new place owned by... uhm... Ara Mina. Here are some pics from last night. They're mejo malabo... The place was dark kse and the phone's camera was on night mode. So there.


Hehe. Ang layo ng tingin ni JR! =)
