I'm getting so freakin' tired of being treated like an incompetent child at work. My boss left today for a week long trip which means she won't be here for the construction of next week's newspaper (yay us!). She was in an extremely bitchy mood this morning and was throwing around loaded guilt statements left and right. Before she left, she told me to "make sure to put a good photo on the front page."
"Okay, will do.""Don't put anything bad or boring on the front page."
"Oooookay."
"Cause I don't want any full face shots or anything like that. I want something good. I don't want any bad shots like you guys have tried to run before."
"Um, I always choose good stuff for the front page. Everyone else agrees. You are the one that has a problem with what we choose. I can't read your mind."
"I know you can't read my mind. I don't want to argue. I just want you to put something good on the front page."
(more sarcastic, argumentative responses from me)
(her getting really annoyed and continuing to tell me to put something good on the front page)
"Yes ma'am."
(more explaining that she wants something good on the front page)
sarcasm heavy "Ok. Yes ma'am. Will do."
In the end she left really pissed off (which pleased me to no end). I'm tired of being shown such disrespect. I need to find another job. Sadly that means either taking a severe pay cut (cause McDonald's doesn't pay very much) or moving to another town. I'm not sure what I'm going to do.

because there’s nothing that amuses me more than hearing your pathetic opinion
The argument today was so hillarious. Ding Dong the witch is dead.. Which old witch ? The Wicked Witch.... She's gone where the goblins go, below below yo ho.. Or something like that.
