Someone's pants are on fire!

This blog was supposed to be about my life outside of the 9-5 at St. E. Yet here I am writing about work...

I just did something that I swore I would never do. I have seen all my co-workers do it and have at least mentally berated them for their lack of tact. But I didn't sleep much last night and I am admittedly not in a good mood. So I did it...

I had the Administrative Assistant lie to a vendor for me.

A few months ago, a co-worker pushed a printer off on me because he doesn't have time to deal with him... and quite frankly Charlie, Emily, and I are typically responsible for getting the print jobs done, so it was only fair that I became the primary contact for this vendor. I met with him over a month ago and didn't feel that he was a good fit for many of our "everyday" printing items. He had some unique projects that he worked on in the past that I could see us seeking him ourt for in our future. But right now, we dont' need him.

But he decided to pop on by the office to check in with me. When the Admin Asst came back to my office, I didn't even want to speak! I just shook my head no! She told him that I was already meeting with someone and would probably be a while. Lies, all lies.

How do people get through their lives deceiving people like this all the time?!?!?!

Oh well. Back to the "to-do" list!
