    This chick came in tonight...her ID said 22...she looked 42, no exaggeration. Oooohhhooohhh, meth...ooohhoooohhh meth. Remember that public service commercial? Lots of post-wedding drunks too. Crossing my fingers for a quiet night. I do not have the patience on any given night but especially not tonight...

    I have been fortunate to have good clients all day. My shift isn't over until Monday Morning, but I am grateful for the clients I've had so far. No meth heads or crack jobs today.

    I now get my workout in before work. I also try to walk Tessa before work.

    @sufferlandrian My mother used her ultimate veto power and we did NOT get to do the meet and greet. I am sad but the other dog is young and I am sure she will find a good home.

    Something will happen, I know it. We will some way, some how, find the perfect pack-mate for Tessa that everyone will love.

    @lilaclovebird WTF???....you mum was the one that wanted another dog...how did that veto happen?

    I used to run a Newsagents / shop for a couple of yrs....the most I dealt with was pot heads coming in and staring at the sweet counter for 20 minutes deciding what to buy........I do not envy you with the meth heads.....very unpredictable lot them.......nasty nasty drug........what do you do Frankie to have to deal with them on a night???

    Auditor at a hotel. It used to be so much worse when we accepted cash. Hookers, meth labs, murder suspects. Well, we still get hookers and meth heads but the ones with credit cards...they tend to be less trouble when they know we can charge their card for damages. But then again, back then we had a manager that was hopped up on pills and embezzling from the company. We would run out of things like TOILET PAPER because she neglected her job so badly. It was crazy!

    @fatjon73 She just didn't want a puppy (she was 8 months old) and she says she doesn't want another black dog. I jokingly called her a racist, but she is right. We need someone a little older and more laid back.

    Good for you. If he is not acting right, there is something wrong. You may not like what they find, but at least you'll know.

    I am not about to quit this AMAZING job. It's against policy and it's against my own code of ethics.

    Maybe I should invest in a new toy...or go on a date...or...something... BAH! I've actually NEVER been in this situation before. I have had the hots for a coworker before but not a supervisor. At that time I was married and so there was no question about what to do about it: ignore it and take out any and all sexual frustration on the husband. Eventually, it all went away.

    This is SO different. He is my direct supervisor, my coworker, he is single, I am single... This is bad. Recipe for disaster. :s:sweat::astonished:

    You have that right. That is a recipe for disaster. At least you're not trying to figure out how to get around it. The tough part is accepting that it's a recipe for disaster and placing that energy somewhere else. Maybe you can call 1800-I need a hottie to take my mind of this guy. :laugh:

    I have the hots for my wife. Maybe I should work less so I can get over that. :wink:

    The only way I see getting around this is if I finish my chemistry degree and work in the BRE building doing something else. But then I lose the opportunity of some serious promotions and tripling my current salary.
    I am not monetarily motivated, but I will not give all that up just for the chance to boink some dude that I work with.

    Then there is the other half of me: But he's so cute and funny! We enjoy each other's company! We get along so well! He is such a fine male specimen. Maybe if we just went out for a couple of beers...

    :frowning:

    I can not wait to go home, take a bubble bath and just hope all these feelings/thoughts go away.

    Just keep reminding yourself that the best guys are usually figments of your imagination and you'll see them on Forensic files in 10 years for being serial killers. :smile: Yes, I'm watching Forensic files while I'm waiting on the next blood glucose on the dog I have hospitalized. :smile:
