Need. (More.) Minions.

I hate waiting for information. Especially when people are chasing me for work at the other end. It drains me of my zen.

My boss just treated me like an idiot by saying something is obviously wrong rather than asking why I did it like that in the first place.

Being bombarded by work emails. Why can't people understand that I can't be doing two projects at the same time and being told about and asked to respond on three other jobs without getting everything muddled up. I cannot multitask to that extent! Give me some minions, dammit!

I weep.

Idiot Gap Year Student: The roadmarkings for this roundabout doesn't work. [lane weaving and driver confusion stuff]

Me: But people don't drive like the way you just described. (And I've been on this project for two years. Don't just look at two arms of the roundabout for 30 seconds and then say it doesn't work.)

IGYS: But if they choose this lane and try to go there and then people on that lane... [blah blah]

Me: That's why at that section there are no markings. It's for the weaving. [further explanation]

IGYS: But I'd just pick the lane depending on which has least traffic... well I guess I do treat roundabouts like dual-lane carriageways.

Me: Exactly. People don't treat roundabouts like regular carriageways. They use the left hand lane when they need to take the next exit, not when that lane has least cars on it and then change back into an inner lane just before the exit. You drive like a maniac. I've been in your car. It was like taking my life into my own hands. (? I think I meant a great risk to my life.)

Coworkers: What on earth is that about?

IGYS: She didn't like it that I had a hand off the wheel at one point...

Me: You had both hands off the wheel at 40mph just off the high street at Coggeshall whilst struggling to take two jackets off at the same time.

Coworkers: WHOA!

IGYS: But I'm sure I had my knee on the wheel!

Me: Like that's gonna help when something jumps out in front of you.

IGYS: *grumble* But I'm sure I can...

Coworkers: Yeah, tell that to the judge after you've killed someone.

IGYS: *grumble some more*

Me: (Please give me better minions.)
