Ways not to start the morning.
I've started getting to work earlier this week. On two days, however, I've ended up at my desk even later than normal. Why, do you ask? Because apparently idiots work here, who cannot be bothered to figure out how to get in the parking garage correctly.
Tuesday and today, I spent 10 minutes in the garage, behind someone who apparently lost all knowledge of how you get in the employee parking. Easy. Scan ID, arm lifts, drive upstairs. The first one was a person who'd forgotten their card, adn instead of followign the procedure to park in visitor parking hten go get a temp card, decided they were special and could just sit there and wait. Meanwhile, I'm behind them, and 8 cars are behind me. Eventually we all have to back up so she can get out.
This morning's was a new flavor. I watched her scan 2 or 3 cards before starting to wave her hands wildly. Huh? Only your ID will work. I stil can't figure out what the hand waving was. I thought it was a signal for me to back up, so I (and and the 8 cars behind me) did. But she continued to sit there, periodically waving her hands, until a security guard came out. I was not amused.
At least I have tea now.
