Miss M is tired and cranky

I'm tired and cranky today. This does not make for a good working environment with me. Apparently I am shooting people dirty looks if they ask me for anything. It does seem to be working in a positive way for me though as now no one is asking me to do anything. It could come back to bite me in the ass, but at the moment I am going to roll with it.

Production Manager: Miss M can you calculate the costs from the post production edit we did last week on the International Show?

Prolonged silence which involves Miss M turning around in slow motion with a death ray look aimed at the Manager

Production Manager: You feeling alright Miss M?

Miss M: I'm just a bit tired from the weekend

Production Manager: Nervous titter in her voice Oh okay, well if you're not feeling up to it I can sort it out

Silence whilst Miss M tries to work this one out in her head - she's offering to do my work even though she's my superior? Damn this death ray thing really works!

Miss M: I can do it, just a little tired today ....

Production Manager: No worries, I'll do it later

SWEET! I have found my secret manipulative weapon! Be a cranky bitch!

But I suppose tomorrow I should do some work otherwise they might fire my ass ...

The interview went well. I now really want the job, which isn't a good thing because it probably means that the Gods of Jobs will feed me back some nasty karma and laugh in my face.

Gods of Jobs: How much do you want this job Miss M?

Miss M: Desperately, it's the perfect job for me and it's permanent which means I get a regular salary and can go on more holidays!

Gods of Jobs: Well then, just because of that we are making sure you don't get it.

Miss M: What?

Gods of Jobs: MUAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Well that's how I see it in my own head.

I'm waiting to hear if I got to the second round of interviewing - apparently then I'd get to meet all 4 of the directors and charm the pants off of them.

Well perhaps not charm the pants entirely off of them, that might lead to an awkward situation.

Miss M: Seems you've lost your pants there, can I offer you some sort of service?

Directors: Gaaah!

Gods of Jobs: HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Okay, I'm leaving now. My imagination is getting carried away and I think I need more coffee.

Coffee!!!!!!!!

Good luck Miss M. I'll hold thumbs and alles that you get that job. Screw the God of Jobs - he's probably too busy with Eskom's directors now anyway...

The Divine Miss M said...

@tbhanks - thanks hon, me too! I also think he is busy screwing over those banking directors here in London who make way too much money, along with EMI. He probably don't have time for little ol me ;)

Well, you know the god of jobs and I don't have the best relationship ever. In fact, he made it his personal mission to royally screw me over for four months. However, I do believe that he has had his fill of messing with the little people, and is now fucking with Obama and Hilary Clinton. So don't stress it, and best of luck - I'm holding thumbs for you all the way ;-)

Muhahahhahhha!!! You are funny...yes, um losing your pants in an interview has worked for some...look at Monica Blewinsky!
I personally DON'T recognise it...although it could amuse the God of Jobs. Gosh it's so bloody confusing isn't???

The Blonde Blogshell said...

PS> Good luck sugar!

The Divine Miss M said...

@lopz - thanks sweetheart, and I'm holding those thumbs for you and your passport! I am hoping the God of Jobs treats me well, but you never know. I'm trying to be extra polite to him ;)

@blonde blogshell - Mmmhhh ... perhaps I should do a "Monica", wonder if it would work ...
Thanks for the good luck wishes!

Ruby said...

Sweets said...

The Divine Miss M said...

No wonder you're cranky: Coffee-induced psychosis.

Elise said...

Miss M! I think you need to take a break and pamper yourself for a while... Jobs? Pha! They're not worth stressing over xx

The Divine Miss M said...
