The White Death
The white death is coming! Where are the children!!??
Apparently, there is a pretty intense storm heading this way with snow and ice in the offing. I might get tomorrow off! Actually, that would be really nice. It would give me an extra day to get ready for S.P.A.C.E.
Today is fluctuating between serious suckage and not too bad. I was REALLY late to work because of traffic. Specifically, because of the ridiculous set up on Campus View Boulevard. This street is extremely busy in the mornings. There are several corporate buildings along it and it is also the street most used by commuters to get to Route 23 and I-270. There is a spot where there is always a Columbus police officer directing traffic so that employees can turn left into these buildings. It’s a major pain in the ass and a unbelievably poor use of the cop and taxpayer money. I sat on that street this morning for a least 25 minutes because the cop had the traffic so backed up. Plus, in this short stretch there are four traffic lights and none of them are synched as far as I can tell.
I got so angry this morning about this that I wrote the Dispatch, WCMH, WBNS, WSYX, the Chief of Police and the Mayor’s office. So far, I got an automated response from the Dispatch thanking me for writing. I just can’t understand why this cop has to do this. Why can’t there be access made into these parking lots so that the people just have to go to the light instead of backing the cars up to the freakin’ bridge!
It’s also Thursday which means the other NP is working today. This woman is the poster child for fuck-ups. A student will come in for a sore throat and she ends up treating them for depression! Our appointments are a half an hour long. She usually ends up spending an hour treating something besides the chief complaint. It’s frustrating. I have to watch who she sees so that we don’t end up running behind. We usually do anyway. ARRRGG!
I want to put Janice Dean, the weather lady on FoxNews in tomorrow’s Chad. When I put public people like that in the strip I usually ask permission first so I emailed her. She answered right back and said fine! I thought that was really nice of her. I just hope she doesn’t mind that I am going to have her aggravating Chad!
