Feb sucks
I know I shouldn't blog in a bad mood because I'll just type a rant that no one will want to read--including future Justgotspaid herself.
That said, this is the worst month. I mean, not this February specifically, just in general. It's cold, winter weather is always fucking up travel and Valentine's Day... well, that exists.
This V-day, I worked in the same shop I've been working in for the last 8 years. It was hell. I felt like I had been drafted into a North Korean labor camp; on your feet for 18 hrs, no heat, the toilet broke, no other sanitation, limited food. I'm pretty sure that is that last of that.
In other news, the merger continues. I was determined to have a good merger party time, so I got pretty drunk at the Mexican place the night before with Conquistador.
I showed up the training the next day and was face to face with my old roommate / betrayer. I guess we can kind of move on now that its been a year. Still, seeing her was a bit weird.
Most other female flight attendants were doing their best to look great for their new ID photo that was being taken at training. I, however, decided on a different tactic. I wanted my work ID to actually look like I do at work, so I showed up sleep deprived, hungover, with some ridiculous amount of necklaces on and with my hair thrown hastily into a messy ponytail. No looking twice at my ID for TSA now!
After all that, I snuck up to Toronto for a bit for a very special trip and then drove home to see my family in Pennsylvania. Note to self: try not to sign up for that much winter driving again.
As this month comes to a close, though, I guess it wasn't all bad at all. I am very much looking forward to getting off of reserve in (hopefully) April and for the end of snow-pocalypse and winter flying delays and other disasters.
