Responsibility

Its amazing how it seems NO ONE is taking it at work anymore and its all become a blame game... So yesterday we had a cash bar that apparently no one really put 2 and 2 together until the cashiers showed up and then suddenly it became *my* problem... Yeah thanks- not that I really minded the 2.5 hours of overtime but a little warning would've been nice... Well one of the registers broke and so I called it in and left a detailed note about WHAT was wrong and instructed that the registers needed to be down in their spots and run though their paces at least 20-30 min before the event starts to avoid issues... Yeah so didn't happen so of course one register never even got set up, the second one broke and mine was the only one that could take credit cards... Afterwards it became the blame game between the mgr. of the function and the person who was supposedly in charge of the registers for the function (and I personally set the blame totally on the person in charge of the registers) but it was amazing how NO ONE took any responsibility for the issue

Put me in charge and I guarantee that all 3 registers would be operational, functional and open on time... Oh wait I'm not smart enough for that, I'm just the one who has to pick up the pieces for every cashiering shift (though I cant complain that it'll have gotten me almost 7 hours in overtime in a week we were only scheduled 34 hours)

How can less be wrong?

So today I finally got the car in for its 45,000 mile oil change (well more exactly its 45,988 mile change- though I blame NASA and Endeavour for the extra 500 miles) and for the last 2 times they've had a list of things "wrong" so I figured I'd get the same list or a longer one today.. Nope nothing but a recommendation to get the engine filter changed due to milage and new wiper blades... So either my car miraculously healed itself, they didn't check as well today or they lied last time?

All I know is... I expected to spend 100+ I spent 30. Not complaining

I see it-


From the news-

From the Contemp- you can see Pink near the left side of the screen- pretty tiny though


and Coral (The 3rd rail running Epcot last night) stopped in no- mans land past the Epcot toll plaza


but I still don't want to believe it

There are no words

Though I wonder how the (&%# it happened because there are too many safeguards...

I also rode both Pink and Purple last night.

Just in case you don't see




The big huge silver ball that marks the entrance to Epcot- There is an arrow pointing you the right way (vs the 2 miles of parking lot behind you...)

Just what I always wanted



Stuffed Bears for the wall! Would it be considered less masochistic this way than real animals? Personally I think its more extreme to cut off teddy bears heads and mount- but thats just me :)
