another no good very bad day (sorry long)
ahhh 
On Monday I think I had my worst day in a while. I got in to work to find that the printer had yet to deliver the brochures and business cards that we desperately needed. When I had originally sent off to get a quote I sent two files only to be told later that both were changed.
SO I shot the printer an email stating that I was asked to inform him that there will be changes to the files and NOT TO print the ones I sent. Later I got the new files and sent them off. (this all happened the week before Monday)
Come Monday, the stuff is not there, so I was hassled into ringing up the printer and asking him where the hell our stuff was. I also had to go to off to see the exhibition hall that we were going to this week to set things up. However, NEVER having gone to something like this before I wore the wrong shoes. STUPID yes, but I didn't know. So I get there, and I'm inside all of 20 min when a guy comes up and tells me I have to leave, now. I'm humiliated. The guy stood there and wouldn't leave till I followed him, so I had to tell the others I would get myself back to the office.
SO I get back and find that the printer has delivered. Great...wait...what is this...oh &*%*&^$%^$ he's printed the WRONG FILES! I go into panic mode. These are needed TOMORROW! I ring up my boss and he tells me to wring the printer and ask him what the hell happened. So I do. Printer didn't seem to believe me. However he calls me back and tells me that, yes, indeed it was their fault and that he would be printing out the files again ASAP and get them to me tomorrow. BUT......this doesn't help me. Boss gets back, and is none to please with ME! He insinuates that this was MY fault. I should have organized this better and not sent the wrong files to begin with. Then tells me I need to print out the brochures then and there. SO, he goes home, it's 7:00 and I have to stay and print out brochures and cut them out. YAY NOT!
I'm almost crying, I'm stressed, I've been embarrassed twice already, and now blamed for something that basically wasn't my accident. Not to mention that fact that up till that point I had managed to screw up a few other things, I don't know what is wrong with me at the moment!
I managed to get it all done by about 9:00. In that time I had tried to call OH a few times and only got his answering machine. He was meant to be taking the car as I was MEANT to be at a friends house. I couldn't call him, so I had to keep checking to make sure he hadn't come and gone leaving me stranded. After I finish, I decided to just sit in the car. I started to really ball. I tried to call OH again and again. It was FREEZING! and the car had no petrol so heating was not an option. I ran back inside around 10:00 to call to see if he had just gone home. Nope, not home, mum angry I woke her. I'm in a panic. He was meant to be back at 9:00. 11:00 roles around. he's STILL not back. I call mum again, nope not home. I'm freaking out and crying more.
I try him ONE more time and get through to him. He's on his way back. He stayed back late trying to finish uni work. and was not happy with me. But when I burst out crying AGAIN. He settled and gave me a hug and took me to get maccers. All in all. it was a stressful day and I don't really want a repeat!
OH and one more thing. I get to the exhibition the next day (right shoes this time) and find that they have used the wrong logo on a VERY important brochure. WTF? I had sent them the file needed with the correct logo (one used was from another of our companies). Guess what happened? oh yes, it's some how my fault! Don't worry about the fact that the logos on EVERYTHING ELSE is correct because I SENT THE RIGHT FILE! Pefect! why is it somehow always MY FAULT! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRR
