Cranky Co-Workers Day
I haven’t decided if it’s a blessing that this day falls on a Saturday this year.

Is it a good thing that we don’t have to deal with that pain-in-the-a$$ today. Or is it unfortunate that this day falls on the weekend because we can’t remind “that one” what a pain-in-the-a$$ they really are?

Hmmmmm? Well there’s always next year!
