Mad at my college's higher-ups.
We had an ice storm last night. There is ice on the ground--and on my street, which is right off a major road and
hasn't been salted. It was still sleeting when we left. There is a quarter-inch to half-inch of ice in some places, and it's mixed with snow. Multiple parking lots of the university(we're on its campus because we used to be part of the university) have not been salted. The one directly in front of the campus has, but the slush and snow was not removed, so cars are pushing it around and it's ankle-deep in many places. The county's public schools were canceled
last night because the weather was bad and only going to get worse. We have people who come to school from surrounding towns, and I know many of those roads were no better than my street. So why are classes not canceled?

This is the
4th day in a row that one of my coworkers has come to work sick. Thursday and Friday of last week, she had a hacking cough and couldn't talk (now, why would you bother showing up to work if you can't talk and you work in a call center?) then yesterday and today, she's here with the nastiest runny nose in the world, and keeps snorting and sniffling and ugh. It's gross. Between her and my other coworker who refuses to see doctors or take medicine, but comes into work and infects the rest of us, it's no wonder I keep getting sick. I mean, seriously. If you're sick, stay home. I do, even if I don't have enough sick hours and end up making the time up (which is happening more frequently now, as these jerks keep showing up sick and getting me sick).
Yeah...that happened on my campus at one point last month. It was ridiculous.
I'm feeling relaxed for the first time in a long time. I got to clean my home yesterday and that was fun and I'll be done with classes at 12:30 today thanks to no more job.
