cliffs:

1. already uber stressed out from yesterday.
2. get a call from coworker who is pissed because i left some equipment on (i left it on so he could jump right on...but that is not relevant).
3. ended up crashing into a car behind me on a hill because i kept stalling out in my car (the hill was seriously steep). the distance was minimal, his bumper got busted up but not too badly. luckily the guy said don't worry about it (that was a fucking miracle).
4. get back to work, try to apologize to coworker. says he is upset and does not want to talk to me right now.

this has been the shittiest day in a long, long time :(

I realize its all relative, but if getting into a wreck where the other party just says forget it and having a coworker upset over something super trite is the shittiest day you've had in a long time, consider yourself a very fortunate individual.

Our video encoding computer at work decided it didn't want to upload videos to the Amazon cloud anymore. Fortunately I caught it early before any of the end users noticed.

Mind you it's good for this at least twice a week. It's been really slow lately too. There was a rumour a while ago we were getting the new garbage can MacPros for encoding, but that failed to materialize.

my car stalled in first gear. i was very surprised..

At extreme angles the floats in a carberator can screw up and sink or bump the sides or top and temporarily stall out the vehicle. If you have fuel injection, then something else is going on, but it's still likely to do with the fuel system and the angle you were at. Was the gas tank almost empty?

then i had to try to get a whole day's work from 4:00 to 7:00

If you can't drive a straight drive (take off on a hill without rolling back) get a pussy mobile with an automatic.

Given that another member lost his father today, I can safely say your day didn't suck that bad... Hence the "quit whining"

you are whining about him whining though

and i am whining about you whining about him whining

we whiners, we whine

Damn straight. If anyone doesn't like our whining about their whining about his whining, they can just leave.

ATOT, love it or leave it.

I had to walk by a building having its exterior redone and there was only a mesh tarp covering it...

I had a pretty good day actually.

But wait, why would your coworker be pissed about you leaving something on for him?

Weird about the car thing; I just got into my first accident this Monday in the parking garage, but fortunately she was very casual about it as well (and there was no damage except in realizing that my hood ornament had fallen off once I got home). Then later that day I discovered the cause of two weeks of complete failure in the lab, which was a simple but stupid fuckup, being behind on my project by two weeks, wasting literally 100+ hours, and hundreds of dollars in repeat experiments. Very shitty day. Fortunately, since figuring out the problem things are now moving along, and today I'm feeling pretty good. Hope tomorrow is better op.

You know what? I had a long post and then I pressed delete to delete a word and it took me back a page. Thus, my post was deleted. Great.

So, whatever man. Fuck your shitty day. Mine have been way worse and there's no end in sight.
