At work today. And a vent.

So they asked me to come in for an all-day meeting today, since some work came up for "my" project and I know the most about it. They can't pay me since I'm on leave, but my boss is willing to give me comp time. Fine.

I arrange for child care, get my booty up and dressed and to SF by 8am for an 8:30am meeting, and get a call on my cell at 8:05am saying that the meeting has been pushed back to 10am. Blah. I'm already here!

I know it's not their fault; it's an outside contractor who won't be ready on time and is causing the delay, but ugh. 

Now I'm at work, with no work to do, and I have to sit around for 2 hours. Well, at least there is the Nest/Bump! Thank goodness!

(Oh, and thank goodness for the hands-free pump attachments that allow me to type at the same time! Fabulous!)

    lol at that.  Yay for modern technological advancements!  :) 

    That does suck, though, that you're stuck waiting around all this extra time.  Are you near somewhere you can go to windowshop a little?  I guess we'll just have to work extra hard to keep you entertained today!

     I'm also thankful for hands free pumping!  :-)

    Enjoy your uninterruped computer time while you've got it,.... AND three cheers to an extra day at the end of leave (for you coming in today).

  • OMG how frustrating!! I hope your boss follows through on his promise to give you comp time.

    LOL. Sorry about that!

    Oh, and I spilled a little bit on my pants leg, and now I have a wet spot. Way to start the work day! Stick out tongue
