What Have You Done Today To Make You Feel Proud?

Keep writing my PhD thesis. Making my fiancée happy. Be my usual cool, charming myself in any occasion. That makes me feel proud of myself every day.
 
I'm proud that I arrived at work on time...when I know damn well that my boss isn't going to be in until after 10 anyway and if I'm late...LOL what are they going to do fire me LOL? But I made damn sure I was here and I was.
 
I feel ashamed rather than proud today.

I didn't call in sick.

I should have done. It's my birthday and not only did I have to go into work, I'm actually on call overnight too, so I have to stay vaguely available and vaguely sober in case I need to go in (unlikely, but turning up three sheets to the wind if I'm needed would not be wise). Boo hiss.

I did get treated to a champagne lunch though, so it wasn't all bad... ;)

I have my birthday planned in advance. A Grand Rround in the morning, then HOME. :D

Happy birthday. :) So what is that, 21 again? ;)

Happy birthday! :)


I might have felt proud today if I had managed to find a solution to a certain problem at work today, but I suspect there isn't really one in this case. :borg:
 
^ LOL I thought I saw "Ground Round" at first...and I was just thinking what the hell kind of shitty birthday is that?

Happy Birthday HOLDFAST!
 
^ Thank you!

It's one of the good kinds of Grand Round too. One that's actually enjoyable and don't fall asleep in. :bolian:

Will you be presenting?

(I'm beginning to feel the pinch myself, soon. :()

I know exactly what work I need to have done. I don't think I'd actually get it done, at least not for years & years to come, but it's annoying that I can see exactly what would help. :shifty: :lol:
 
Not blowing up in the face of a poor sales guy in a store.

I've pre-ordered a new release of a game in the companys store hoping they'd get them and not relying on mail to my house which can come late sometimes.

I go in Saturday.. no new game (and it's a day before my birthday), i go in today.. no new game (it's Tuesday) and after a bit of research we find out it's been shipped last Thursday but UPS fucked it up (at least that's the official excuse).

So not only didn't they deliver on release day but i'll get it almost a week later with the standard re-stock instead of getting their ass in gear and organizing a special delivery (which i would have done and i work in logistics professionally).

The poor guys and girls in a call center or in a shop usually are not responsible for such fuck ups but nevertheless it is hard sometimes not to take out your frustration on them.. i managed it today and feel a bit proud.
 
I managed to clean the house today..my energy has been flagging lately so I took a B-12 this morning and it actually gave me the energy to clean this pigsty of a house. The kitchen is immaculant, as well as my bedroom(still have to fold some clothes though!) Then went to get cat food and am now fixing to go get dog food cause the dogs don't have any food for tomorrow!
 
I actually managed to get a job interview set up for Monday at Aflac. :) This job sounds promising and I'm gonna give the interview my all. :) I'm quite proud of myself for taking the initiative to send in my resume to them. ;) I was quite shocked when I got the phone call this afternoon.
 
dam! that's pretty good i get knackered after 6 miles in half hour

today i managed to put up one of those flat pack wardrobes without burning the house down or any other damage to house or limbs
 
I hung up on the President of this shitbag going down in flames company today! Picchi Mills sucks major ass. He called asking for my boss, not thank you Pattie for all the hard work or thank you Pattie for all the years of service...nope nothing like that..just gave me some message for my incompetent boss and I said "yeah yeah whatever, you go have a nice life" and CLICK! Oh it felt so good and I did behave because believe me that's not what I wanted to say -- I really let him off easy.
