NOVEMBER 30 2009 2006 - JACKSONVILLE FL - First day back to work after the beginning of the Reinvention of Me. What can I say other than the day was crazy?
This is the end of the month, and of course we had more than our share of the "Oops, I Forgot" individuals calling in to make their last minute payments. I took a total of 25 calls. Wee, what fun.
Let me tell you about my trip to work this morning. First, I left the house in time to catch my bus, based on the schedule. Now, what should my eyes behold as I approached a point that was more than 100 yards from the bus stop? You guessed it, I missed my bus. Like "Bloody Hell Man". To say I was a little miffed is an understatement. I started walking towards Glenlya and Oglethorpe, but as I walked, a Toyota pulled over and the female driver beckoned to me offering me a ride. Dude, I am not making this stuff up, I swear. Well, once I approached the car, I noticed that the driver was the daughter of a lady who sings in the Choir at Historic Mt. Zion AME Church. She just happened to be off from work today, and gave me a ride to work. She did not have to do so, but she did, and I was more than grateful.
Everyone seemed glad to see me back at work. My desk buddy was surprised when I told her the reason why I decided to move out, but she said she understood. My sanity is so much better than me lowering my standards.
After work, I rode the bus home. The ride is not a bad one, and I feel that I can really get used to it. I think the drive I had was new, but she really seemed to have a grasp for the bus, and seemed to understand the route fairly well. I hope she is my driver in the future.
All in all it was not a bad first day back at work.
