My life in a small town: October 2006

DRAMA, DRAMA, DRAMA!!!!!!!!!!! (revised)

Oh my gosh, what drama we have at work. You don't have to watch soap operas, we have enough juicey stuff at work to keep anyone listening or watching. Let me explain. Yesterday, Monday, the morning was going pretty good, then the afternoon gets there, and Bonnie helps a customer get on the phone with customer service. Well, she happens to sit the customer at Eileens' desk. Which was brought up in one of our morning meetings, NOT to sit any customer at this desk, but to sit them up by the door at the customer phone.

Eileen told Bonnie that they were not to sit the customer there, and Bonnie proceeds to talk ugly and cuses the Eileen, and ask her if she was some kind of special Bitch! Well, that wasn't the right thing to do. So after the customer leaves Eileen takes the phone off of her desk and takes it over to Bonnie's desk, and tells Bonnie that she put the f#@'ng phone on her desk and she could have the f#@'ing phone. But let me back up!!!

When Bonnie is cusing Eileen, then Eileen hauls off and pops Bonnie in the back of the head. "Ka-Boom" Ouch!!!
So Bonnie goes to Bill, the Boss, and tells him that Eileen hit her, and that she didn't do anything. HUH! Well the boss starts to come out to the show room and I ask him if Bonnie is coming back out to help customers and he tells me there is a problem thatEileen hit her. And I told him if someone called me a Bitch and cused me out I would probably do something too. And he says "Now Linda lets not start anything." I told him I wasn't, but it wasn't fair to give a warning to one and not the other one. And his excuse is that Bonnie is having problems. (Yep, she is going through a divorce, her choice Only because she has a boyfriend.)

Well, needless to say, the boss sent Eileen home for hitting, and was suppose to send Bonnie home, but for some reason he didn't. What a mess. And today Bonnie tells the other salespeople that wasn't there yesterday her side of the story. And even added a little more, like she told the boss that Eileen would have to go or she would. Well, Bye, Bye, don't let the door hit you in the rear on your way out!! Then she (Bonnie) tells Lawanna another salesperson, that she told Bill that she was going to get Eileen fired.

I had other things I was going to blog about but I just had to bolg this first.
So is this messed up or what?

I hope this revision helped the confusion.

What DRAMA in a small town....

I thought this was too good not to share.
Will blog more tomorrow night.
Until then!!!!

Pineywoods Fair

Our town has a fair every year around the second week-end of October. So we went on Friday night, it was arm band night, where you got a discount on the arm band if you brought an empty coke can. There were A LOT of people out there too. Oh, my gosh, I must be getting old, that many people in one place you could hardly walk between them.
I tried to take some pictures but they didn't come out too good. Here is one of Patrick at one of the games.

Then on Saturday we went up to the mall and listened to a band play in the new pizza/game room. It was interesting.

On Sunday after church we went to Lufkin to eat lunch, we found a new Chinese place to eat and it was pretty good. I think the name of it is China King Buffet. At least it was some where different for a change. We were going to Golden Corral, but when we got there I think everyone else in Lufkin and Nac was there. They had a long line and my thought was where is everyone going to sit after they got in.

Not much else going on around here, so until next time.

That's life in a small town!!!!

OK, SO I'm BEHIND

Ok, so I'm finally blogging!!
Last week-end we went up to Burleson to celebrate my grandson's 4th birthday. He was so excited because he was having his party at Chucky Cheese.

He had the cutest cake, too, it had a little dump truck, grader and such. Here let me just show you how cute it was, and he got to take the toys home and play with them.

He was so cute with his friends from school. Here are a couple more of the pictures I took before my camera died.

We stayed until Sunday and then came home. On our way home we go through some county roads, and you some times see wild animals. Coming home we had a BOBCAT run across the road in front of us.

We hadn't gone two far and two COYOTES ran across the road.

Wow, we were really seeing the wild life and of course nearly every time we travel that road we see deer just standing along the side of the road grazing.

This week-end or rather Friday evening we are going to the Nac Fair, that comes around every year. Patrick is excited about riding the rides, I think I will just pass.

Well, that's life in a small town!!!

NEW SEASON TV

Wow, tonight "Lost" was on and it was AWESOME!!! I think this season is going to be much better than last season. The previews for next week look really good, too.

Gives me something to look forward to, and "Smallville" is back on Thursdays. Yea!!!!
I really never use to watch any special tv shows until my son got me hooked on a couple of them, "Lost" and the "4400". And of course "Smallville".

Not much else going on here, except this week-end we are going up to Burleson for a Birthday Party for my grandson, Johnnie, he turned 4 on the 2nd.
