lame-by
today i was "on standby." on standby means that from 8am-12pm, youa re essentially on call for any last minute clients that call in needing a temp. i've done it once before, i got to stay at home and get paid for 4 hours of work. i agreed to do it today, only they wanted me to come in. it was ridiculous.i sat there for 4 hours, thank goodness i had a book to read. i didn't even get to sit at a desk or use a computer or anything. i sat in the lunch room listening to wxrt and reading a book i wasn't that interested in. there wasn't even a coffee machine or anything! it was a very, very long four hours and a complete waste of my time. i almost feel mad at the temp agency. how dare they ask me to do something so stupid.

at least it wasn't a "drive-by". that could be really dangerous.
