It could always be worse...

Yesterday was going, OK then 2pm came and after that it was all down hill. I found out that a friend of mine passed away, which was unexpected and sucks. That in and of it self would make for a bad day. But THEN...

I get called into work which was sorta OK because I need more hours. But THEN...

I have this jerk that I sold an item to on EBay send me a message:
"Hey! You sent my package to Georgia! I am putting a stop payment through Paypal until this is resolved." I respond, "Whoa! Talk about jumping to conclusions I just put down the wrong tracking number. Here is the correct one" EBay buyer then leaves negative feedback later in the day saying that I shipped the hat in an old oatmeal box (I was trying to recycle and not buy a box) and charged $8 when it only cost $4 to ship. I explained that I was not trying to rip him off or anything but that I let Ebay automatically calculate shipping and that I would refund part of the shipping fee. He then complained about the hat itself and said that what I was offering was not good enough. I told him I refund all his money and that he could keep or throw away the hat. He still has not changed his negative feedback. and THEN...

I found out that I had to work with a manager that night at my other job that keeps us late and is disagreeable and THEN...

That manager kept us 40 minutes past our usual leaving time, in my opinion finding things for us to do that could have waited. Also at one point we were just standing around waiting to go. I was talking about hiring some kids to come mow her down with paint balls in the parking lot some night, but the more I thought about it the more I thought; I'm not that mean. (but I did think up a cute little short film idea for a Don Corleone scene where the guy asking is an adult and Don Corleone is a kid sipping milk and petting a tea-cup chihuahua. The guys shooting paint balls do it like they got Sonny in The Godfather.) I ticked my brother off by scaring him as he sat in the truck waiting to pick-up my sister (didn't mean to piss him off). It was after 11:30 by the time I got home.

All of that makes a normal day like today seem down right nice. And hey, it could always be worse... (I could be that jerky Ebay guy)
