You Wreckin My Flow

Did you all really think that I was so into my new church and romance that I stopped hating work? Well don't fret, this is a work related story.

So......It seems as Doing Better (formerly Do Better) and I have established a bond in our dislike for Ms Know It All. Besides the fact that we think she's a know it all who cannot do her job we find her to be EXTREMELY competitive. I personally think by showing off what she knows she thinks she'll be able to shine and advance. She recently decided to take on a national project for our GM, I'm assuming to look better to the highest up, but I swear I'm going to act oblivious and watch that fall apart. None the less her competition is really starting to effect my work and that's when it does become personal. Now she's at a point where she tries to be the first to pick up the phone, but doesn't transfer a parent to their rightful coordinator. It would be one thing if Iwasn't in the office, or I'm on the phone, but it's another when I'm sitting at my desk(which is RIGHT NEXT TO YOU), just clicking the computer mouse and you don't even ask me if I'm busy and can speak to the parent (as is our custom). Now I think she's purposely trying to sabatage us. She's done this to Doing Better a few times, and today she did it to me (who knows how many other times she did it without me knowing).

In addition, we have so many computer systems that sometimes you confuse the name of one for another, we're human so it's alright. An update went out for one of the systems and I processed it for the team, since I'm having a relatively slow week (thank God). I say out loud to the team that everything has been updated, but I sent out an email since everyone isn't here today. In my email I listed the wrong system, however the system I listed isn't something that we can update anyway (only a programmer). Ms. Know it All, who watched me update the system, at the proper group computer, AND heard me say that we're updated, sends an email to the team (trying to make me look bad - in my opinion) saying " This looks like it applies to _actual system name_ (our test scoring thing) not _system I put in_, and that we actually have to download it onto that __the group computer__. Is that right?" So I'm pissed because not only did she watch me do it , she heard me say that it was done so of course you know the answer to your questions. Like I said, I think she was trying to make me look bad. So instead of turning to her and say "Ms. Know it All, you know what I meant" I instead decided to conceal my feelings, put on the game face and send an email to everyone that said "Excuse my error. I mean ___actual system name__ and the __group computer__ machine." This chic has the nerve to say (in a voice that was eerily loud (as if she wanted our boss to hear) "So does that mean that it's all done, or did you just download the application". By this point I was frustrated so I said (in a voice that means, don't say shyt else to me for today, and think twice about correcting me again) "It's done. I did it all. It's ALL done! OK?" (of course the OK came with "the look" like bytch say something else). So she gives me a simple "Oh, ok. Just checking!"

I swear this girl is one of those pageant girls that would slice your dress, or add itching powder to your hair spray, or just trip you as you walk down the runway. I do not trust this girl. Me and Doing Better are going to begin watching her like a hawk, because I'm sure she feels the same way.

Oh yeah, and on another note. My promotion was "submitted" as of yesterday. Excuse me as I don't jump for joy!
