first day, first call(2 years ago)

the one thing i hate about work is going back to it after a long weekend. first days are the hardest and getting through the whole day is a pill that's just a bitch to swallow. unfortunately, you only have two choices in this situation, either you pull yourself together and take that pill or stay home. the latter one's always the better choice but for some reason i always seem to take the first one.

so anyway, after enduring an hour's traffic and getting my pants wet from the rain i'm here at my workstation bracing myself for that first call. oh, by the way, did i tell you that i "volunteered" for a two hour pre-shift OT? i didn't? oh so now you know and volunteering is an act i don't practice often....
