Tuesday Is The New Monday.

Have you ever wanted a reset button on the day?

Y, my coworker who has graciously been giving me rides to the site, picked me up at our usual time this morning. We arrived on site, expecting to be meeting the electricians who would be wiring up the motorised winches we had installed.

No sign of the electricians.

Also no sign of J, our other coworker.

Called J. Left message asking him to pick up the large pair of cable cutters we needed to do any other work onsite.

Locked Y and myself out of the building. Had to call general manager to get ahold of someone to let us back in.

J finally showed up. We cut cable, we ran cable through pulleys and terminated it to clews*. Things were looking promising.

We completed the cable terminations. Still no sign of the electricians.

Now at dead standstill.

Called office. Told to come to shop.

Went to shop. Cleaned pipe with foul smelling chemicals.

Y offers me a ride downtown. While waiting at stoplight, we are rear-ended.

Now my neck and back are beginning to hurt, and I may have to go to a doctor.

On the plus side, my readership is up.
