I am starting in on a giant pile of slides to be transferred to JPG and relabeled, and while they scan I'll be working on a PR letter for Allyson (another one; I pre-onerous tasked my way through a goodly pile of them yesterday, so yay on that).
ION, my favorite Santa was fired last weekend! I'd totally been planning to take Matilda to Macy's to see him for her third visit, because he's just ridiculously sweet and good with kids and thoroughly Santa-like (some of the other families we waited in line with last year said they'd been bringing their kids to him for ten years), but now he's sacked. Though apparently I can still take her to see him, at the bar around the corner. My city, God love her.
Onerous tasks done! Made copies of the program-done! Found 3 empty boxes-done! Organized props into said empty boxes-done!
I still need to find some more empty boxes by next week, but I feel okay with my progress. yay!
I did the expense report, but then got derailed talking to my chatty coworker. Oops. That was not onerous.
Can I say that my onerous task today is my frigging work...so I am just doing it, despite a complete Word Perfect fail that required a transfer into Word at the last minute.
Yay for the expense report, Jesse!
Yay, Sue!! Honestly, just doing work can be onerous at any time and especially so when there is technology fail.
My real onerous task is the meeting I have tomorrow with my boss and my boss boss about this stupid document I'm working on.
There's nothing like stirring the pot by adding a line to a document to make a policy decision that really should be made several pay grades above mine. Oh well, I do as instructed.
Shockingly, I seem to have completed all of my onerous tasks for the day. Can I go home now?
Today is onerous task today , not because anything is onerous, but because they have to be done today
