Lead , follow , or run around like crazy

I complain a lot about my job and my boss (and everything else) because I am a whiny bitch like most people but its doesn't really effect me normally - such as my boss is a moron , but I just do my work and ignore him . Finally this moronity hit home though .

I just got back from a trip to Oklahoma City - the land of a million icy bridge signs - and here's how it went down . Arrived at the hotel my boss booked for us . Oh , pardon me , did I say hotel ? I mean rather shabby apartment complex in a somewhat shady part of town . How many silverfish were there ? Doesn't matter because one is already too many . Betsy Bumpaddle speculated that it might be an Airbnb deal which I would not that thought of my makes perfect sense . I can see my boss thinking "I heerd about the airb on the TV - dat must be how you get hotels dese days , a-yup-yup-yup" .

I came up the day before my lazy co-workers so I call the boss and tell him this is fubar . He says , don't worry about it , he'll take care of it . So I stay one night in the flophouse and go into work the next day . Except guess what , I can't do shit because the boss didn't request all the accesses he was supposed despite being reminded , um , about 7 trillion times . Also even though I told them I was coming up early the people there weren't prepared for me anyway , although I can't blame my boss for that . Boss calls while they're on the road - he's got a new hotel lined up , an actual hotel . I ask for the address . I can't find it on the GPS . Oh , because its Tulsa . Why ? Because the bossman says

"Isn't Tulsa a suburb of Oklahoma City ?"

Oh yes , just like Toledo is a suburb of Columbus and San Jose is a suburb of Los Angeles and Lexington is a suburb of DC . Lala explained it to me , the entire state of Oklahoma is actually just a suburb of Dallas .

So I tell him I'm going to book my own hotel because he's a moron and WF can reimburse me - and he goes apeshit because he doesn't want anyone to know that he's a fucking moron who can't even book a hotel . And I'll grant you the hotel I booked for myself was kind of far away from where we were working , but what it had going for it was that it WAS a hotel and WAS NOT in another city 2 hours away .

So I cancel my room at the Royal Silverfish Inne and I have to go through this big rigmarole with the refund which I barely care about because I didn't pay anyway . But it was worth it because I got to find out how much this "hotel" cost to book . Care to guess ? $54 whole dollars . I don't travel a ton so I can't say for a certainty that you can't get a decent hotel room for 50 bucks , but I'm pretty sure . I bet somehow my boss got X amount of money to spend , got the cheapest shithole he could and pocketed the money . That's the kind of moron he is . He won't lift a finger to say , save the company 5 million a quarter but he'll try to scam them out of 40 bucks .

My hatred of him has really reached another level .



When I was driving into town I saw a billboard for some payday loan place which said "need cash but its not payday ?" and then it showed two asses . "Hilarious" right ? But here's the funny part . The asses were pixelated . Which raises many questions . First of all , does this mean that animal nudity is illegal in OK ? Does everyone have to make their dogs and<b> cats </font></b>wear pants ? Does the parks department trap wild animals and put clothes on them ? And more importantly when the comic geniuses who came up with this ad were told it had to be censored why did they still go through with it ? Why didn't they just do something else ? Did they think the ass billboard was SO great they wouldn't compromise ? And why didn't they at least spell it butt ? And why did the people censoring it not just say they couldn't do it ? I'm going to think about this billboard and how/why it happened for a long time .

The point is that you're going to be hearing a lot in the coming months about whose idea The Notorious Fuckbuddy was . It was mine . 100% . Don't believe anyone's lies . You'll know whom I'm talking about .

While I was driving home I come up with a new thing . Whenever I'm feeling a little blue I'm going to think about Nicola Tesla . He invented the induction motor , rotating magnetic fields x-ray photography , AC power , radio transmission , neon lights , radar detection , remote control , the bladeless turbine , and many other things . He was by any benchmark a man who changed the world many times over - one of the most important people in modern history .

And he died a virgin .

I am not a virgin . I have had sex with literally ones of women .

Ergo at least in one way 40Deuce > Tesla

And that's not nothing .

Evidently, Tesla sublimated his sexual energy into inventions. I wonder what the world would be like if he had gotten laid? Would someone else have invented his stuff or would he have kicked into invention over-drive ..... sex creating a sexual energy perpetual loop?

Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

I think that whole sexual energy thing is just a scam

I think you're on to something with the theory of your boss committing travel embezzlement. I'm kind of surprised your company doesn't have a travel agency under contract. An outfit that would find a good deal that was within a certain level of quality and comfort and proximity (not the equivalent of staying in Duluth when working in Minneapolis).

Where I work, surprisingly it's just up to the employees to figure out their arrangements. Most of the time people are responsible and line up hotel and airfare that are reasonable. But every now and then some asshole goes for the $500/night room and claims they couldn't find anything else.

And when they pull this move do they get reimbursed ?

Yes, usually

Because they've already paid the money and have a receipt proving that, they usually get off with a stern "never again" scolding. Very irritating.
