Yeah. Logistics are a bitch. I think you know where her head was and given the task at hand, you can at least picture yourself doing the same.

You might be able to swap flights for a nominal fee. Worth looking into, at least.

Yes, I know it's not easy to accommodate everyone when booking for that many people. However, she knows that half the people flying out to Toronto, live close to Toronto. Two of us are close enough to stay at home and make our own way to the office in the morning.

Really, it's just a huge piss off that I'm so close to being done, and I'm still being jerked around. The past month has not been a good one for me.

Speaking of bad months... OK, not really bad, just expensive. Two new cars expensive. Assuming mine shows up soon. I'm torn between feeling like I don't deserve the dang thing (and I'm not the one that crashed my other) and being excited.
@Cole pay the difference to swap for an earlier flight if you can. It is usually an option in the morning in my (albeit limited) experience. And skip the hotel, or take the GF with... Assuming that's an option.

Not a big deal, except that the flight was booked for 415pm, and I have about zero hours of work to do on Monday, so I'll be twiddling my thumbs in the hotel until 11am (checkout time) and then trying to find something to do until I have to leave Edmonton to head to the airport (about a 40 minute drive). So, that kinda sucks big time. Not like I wanted to actually have some time in the evening with my girlfriend or anything. With a 415 flight, I'd get in around 930, and probably home by 1030, naturally, she has her longest day on Tuesdays so I'd rather her not stay up waiting for me.

Second of all, the office administrator booked a hotel for me. When I explained "no, I won't need that, I only live 30 minutes away from the office and will get myself there" she said "well, that's not what the plan is, so too bad".

Finally, it's my birthday on Tuesday, and there's no way that after being in a meeting from 9-5 that day, do I want to go out to dinner with the people I've been working with for months, and have just spent my entire day with in a conference room when I could go home and see what my girlfriend has planned up for us to do. I caught flack from my boss for saying "sorry, can't do dinner since it's my birthday and my girlfriend has been planning things for weeks now"

Oh well, the end is near, and I have enough vacation to take me through to the first or second week of April.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!!!!!!



Enjoy your vacation (time off).

How is your blood pressure ........

After the email I just received from my boss, I'm pretty much at my breaking point, so probably through the roof.

I suggest you take two aspirin, a large glass of water ..... and then masterbate (redirects some of the blood flow - to relieve blood pressure).

Hell, it used to work for me ......

Seems like that one is an easy one to fix, assuming you don't mind hanging around the airport and trying to catch an earlier flight, although you might have to pay some change fees. Done that one plenty of times myself.
