Craziness

Bananas!! I'm sure you've worked with someone who has driven you bananas maybe even multiple people at once. But this is my story about the old crazy lady that I now work with at the Lodge.
About a month ago my boss hired this ocl (old crazy lady) because there was only 3 of us working the front desk full time, that's 24/7 you do the math. So this ocl was just supposed to be someone who could sit there while the rest of us took turns sleeping, haha. But she has gone from yay! to argggg. It's to the point where I would rather not sleep for the next 2 weeks than to see her again, OK that was a little harsh. But she makes me want to scream! What's making me want to scream? Well I'll tell you, it's the overly motherly thing she tries to do to me. Hello I have a mom and 3 grandmas thank you. She's deaf, when someones says "huh?" more than any other word I think it's time to go get your hearing checked. She takes my reports and moves them to the weirdest spots or throws them away. She's throwing away my job!! That's my job to check and make those reports then send them to accounting, why would you throw them away? She's slow, takes her atleast 5 mins everyday, twice a day to remember how to clock in or out. Not 5 mins to clock out, 5 mins to remember how to get to the screen. And that is clocking in and out, the easiest thing to do, you should see her try and check someone in. She's horrible with computers, I can't believe the things she asks me to do for her. And she runs her own business!! I have no idea how and she has a computer at home, probably doesn't even know how to turn it on. I've shown her how to open up the Internet almost every night, double click on the Internet explorer icon. She doesn't listen either, you tell her something 6 times and then she comes up with the craziest thing and every time I'm like, "that's not even close to what I told you". She even writes down the things you tell her and she still comes up with the wrong thing. I'm just thankful I don't actually work with her, I only clean up after her. Life is always interesting and makes me laugh when I think about it afterwords. But in the moment I'm like argghh!! And you will be happy to know that she has no idea that I think these things and I have been patient with her..... every time I've shown her how to print a document. Smiling...Smiling is my favorite and it gets me through these crazy times. But do you know what also helps.....15 more days!
