A certain person who works...

or is soon to not work in my office is a total BITCH! She has basically been one of those people who live in a glass house who throws stones at everyone else. She has been complaining that the people around her don't get their work done and that they are negligent and talk too much, but then she goes and one of the other girls had to go through a stack of stuff that had been backed up for a while. She says she works so hard etc! Whatever!!!! Hey, I mean we all have things that we sometimes don't get to, but maybe you should shut your fucking mouth and worry about yourself WHORE!!!!!!!

I am so tired of her stupid judgemental ass! Go freaking jump off a really large cliff!

New Decision

Ok, my new decision is to not complain to anyone at work. So, I will begin complaining on my blog. HA! So, I will be sure and post a warning of work complaints to follow. :)

First complaint, one of the girls in the office...who shall not be named made me really well I would say upset, but more like preterbed. I was talking about how when I interviewed her, that I really liked her. She must have misunderstood me and thought that I was saying that I liked her from the beginning of her time actually working here. Which honestly, I didn't. In fact, sometimes I still don't like her, but I certainly don't mention it because I don't think that it is nice or necessary and certainly doesn't make for a pleasant environment. Anyway, she said "Well, it took a lot of patience on my part to deal with you Stella, a lot of will power." Well, honey all I have to say is that it takes me will power every day to deal with you. Especially, when every day you are snippy and short with me and say rude comments. Trust me, it takes will power! In fact, I am not the only one that has noticed this about you. Everyone who works here has said the same and I would love to see you go work somewhere else honestly. However, I don't say that and I don't bring up the amount of willpower it takes me because it isn't necessary, is rude and does not make for a pleasant environment. Strangely enough, I am not too upset about that. I actually am very serene so far today, however it is only 9 am.

Anyway, at least there are 2 people in the office that I can actually speak to that I can go to them when we have a problem and they can act like adults and discuss it with me. Unfortunately with the previously mentioned person that is not possible.

Then again, sometimes that person does nice things, like she washed my coffee cup for me just now. Which is nice.

My Journaling Junkie page challenge

Here is the page that I did for Journaling junkie, the challenge was to do a page based on your favorite meal.



Journaling reads:
The best meal we have ever had has to be when we went to Victoria and Albert's at Disney World's Grand Floridian hotel. The atmosphere was refined, elegant and relaxing. The service was impeccable and the food, was absolutely fabulous and exotic.

Christian had Dungeness and King Crab with Spring Asparagus and Calvisius Caviar to start. Long Island Duck with Roaset Chiogga Beets and Turnip Kraut, then Seared Wild Turbot with Toasted Capers and Meyer Lemon, Herb Crusted Lamb with Heirloom Tomatoes and Potato Gnocchi. Comte Saint Antonie, Fourme D'ambert and Pierre Robert for the cheese course. For dessert, Pyramid of Tanzanie Dark Chocolate Mousse.

Stella had Seared Colorado Buffalo Tenderloin, Braised Fennel, Raishes and Satsuma Tangerine Vinaigrette to start. Pan Roasted Foie Gras and Fuji Apple Tart with Mostarda di Cremona, then Yellow Fin Tuna Tempura with Hijiki Salad and Carrot-Ginger Coulis for the fish course. Then, Herb Crusted Lamb with Heirloom Tomatoes and Potato Gnocchi. For the cheese course, Comte Saint Antoine, Fourme D'Ambert, and Pierre Robert. For dessert, Vanilla Bean Creme Brulee.

From beginning to end, a fabulous meal. Not a bite that was not enjoyed! The wine pairing was fantastic and certainly intoxicating. The presentation of the "Celebes" coffee was extraordinary. To top it all off, at the end of the meal we met the Chef de Cuisine, Scott Hunnel. We certainly can't wait to go back and experience it all again.***Note: The green part at the back of the layout is the menu they personalized for me at the restaurant and gave to each guest as a souvenir.

Storms on the sea of the work life again...

Ok, well it just wouldn't be a month, or a week, or a day without trouble at work. When I think about my troubles, I always think of work, not really of home. (THANK YOU JESUS!!!) Now, that doesn't mean that I don't EVER have trouble at home, just not nearly as much as work.

So, let me tell you that now I have to find another employee. Super fun! NOT! I really really wish that I could just figure out how to live with people and how to keep my mouth shut when it should be and how to open it when I should open it. Now, in the long run I really don't think that this was my fault, but the road to hell is paved with good intentions and HELL is called finding a new employee that speaks spanish (crossing fingers on that one). Anyway, I am praying for the perfect person, able to handle angry people and able to speak spanish. Please pray everyone out there in internet world.
