Today was such a stupid day. Nothing seemed to go right. None of my work got done. A lot of my work depends on other people doing their jobs. I had given an instruction three days ago and people just slept on it. Not only did they not do it, they never even told me that they were not doing it. Finally, when they came around to doing it, it was too late in the evening to process anything. Then I had this annoying client who’s kept on calling me. I told him that I would call him when I had an answer. I don’t have an answer so I haven’t called him. He kept on calling at all the wrong times. Then he decides to call at 7:30 in the evening when I’m at the hospital with my daughter. So I didn’t answer. I finally came home at 8:30pm, to see he’s sent an email copying my boss saying that I haven’t spoken to him in a week. What a lie, and what a nasty email he wrote.

I can’t help wonder, if being nasty works at all. I don’t think I will ever want to talk to this guy or help him out in any way. I probably will have to speak to him but it won’t be pleasant. As for me, I wonder if I had been bitchy with the people who didn’t process my instructions, whether it would have made a difference. Sometimes, it would seem that people only respond such things. I don’t know how to do it. I probably would lie awake at night, regretting my behaviour. I don’t think it’s worth having it on my conscience. What a stupid day… I just want to curl up and sleep now.
