As sit here waiting for my report to print, for the 4th time, I think about Why? Why does formatting have to be such a pet peeve of mine. If even one little thing is off, I break out in cold sweats and start shaking uncontrollably. I have to re-print. Proof reading and print preview cannot (and do not) help in determining if my margins are off because for some reason, they like to show them as though they are, then The Evil Troll of the PDF changes all that and I cringe at the sight of my botched up piece of shit report.
If I ever catch The Evil Troll of the PDF, he’s a dead man. Dead.
Speaking of botched up formatting and my OCD-like tendencies.
I started working on a different product line last week. The guy that’s been running the show (or 3 ringed circus, depends on how you look at it) has this thing with creating his own inconsistent formats and passing them off as “company standards”. I can’t even see straight when he tells me to correct Actual. PROPER. Formats. for his ass-smear child-like report. AND he acts all superior, like his rendition is God’s gift to reports and formatting.
I could go on and on about how much this irritates the hell out of me. Gah!
Instead, I’ll think about the wonderful dinner (at the Epicure Cafe) and show (at the Factory Theatre) that I’m going to with work friends and other co-workers that I can politely ignore for the night. She be lots of fun!
Hopefully that damn Evil Troll of the PDF stays away, and his damn ring leader too.
