Seriously.
I am not your personal assistant.
I AM ONLY ONE PERSON.
I need to get out of here.

1) Yesterday a woman came in with 2 pages she handwrote and asked me to type it for her. Fine. She then said "I'll wait here while you do it." ... "You do have time right now, right?" Hell no. I have a list of 30 projects that has not gone down in months. Yeah you can wait, if you want to be standing there for two days. I'm not going to drop everything to do your work when 20 other people came in before you.

2) I get this guy who emails me to print up copies of his feature sheet. I looked at it and then looked up the property online and low and behold, the price is different. I so wanted to not change the price for him, as it's not my job to look after these things, but then he'd just yell at me. He also demands that I staple his brochures together and then berates me if I don't. I don't have time to do that stupid crap.

3) Woman leaves postcards she printed that she wants me to take to the bulk mail center for her. Not only does she not give back the bulk mail paperwork I gave her when I processed the labels for her so I have to reprocess them, but she then calls 10 minutes later while I am running around getting supplies for the office and says "they said you are out running errands, so I assume that means you're out taking mine." I seriously wanted to wait a week now to bring them, but I have six other orders that need to be taken.

Basically, my whole job right now is getting berated by agents who think I'm supposed to read their minds and remember everything they've ever told me in the past and who think that they are my only client.

In other news, the big boss is back in town and told me they are thinking of hiring someone part time to help out (mind you, they've been saying this since I started 1.5 years ago). Basically that person would do the template based stuff and my crap work while I got to concentrate on bigger projects so, as she put it "They don't need to know any bigger software, like Corel Draw." Corel Draw???? I want to tell them that they need to hire someone who I can train to replace me in 3 months, but I don't want to say anything about me quitting until I have an actual plan in place.

I am so worried though that anywhere I go will be more of the same. I am so stressed here. And then I get home and am so mentally exhausted and drained from putting up with this that I can't work on the things I really want to be working on, like my novel and websites and laundry.

In other news. On my way to MattyK's last night I stopped at McDonalds to buy milkshakes for Matt and Matt. The McDonalds is all of three blocks from Matt's house. After about a block the guy in front of me slams on his brakes, my backpack and laptop fly off the front seat knocking over and crushing the milkshakes all over the floor of my 3 month old car. MKs vanilla was in pristine condition. Matt and my chocolates were not. My floor ate well. The boys were nice and gave up watching car shows to help me clean. MK got to drink his damn vanilla shake then and Matt let me drink the remains of one of the chocolate ones and went without.
