Slow day at work

Well it is slow at work today. The boss says I might as well just sit and look busy and get paid for it. I just can't stand sitting in one spot for more than a minute or two if I have nothing to do.

I am thinking of just going home and playing around in the garage. Maybe even attempt the spark plugs in my 01 Supercrew.

Thats alot better than me. I have been off work since March 29th when I had my second neck surgery due to a car wreck while at work. I thought things at work were going well and that another position was avablile for me. But I have heard from some of our customers that when they have called for me, they were told that I no longer work there. The owners have not said a thing to me. I called, but just got his voice mail. Next step is to go in and find out. Eight years with the same company. Helped it grow to what it is today. Made over the 2 mil mark last year. But since the wreck happen in the company truck on company time I turned it into work comp. Now I find out that they hate me. What the heck is work comp for?

the weather has been great around here and we're having a week like it was July, in other words, we're selling a lot of stuff. Today was kinda slow, we only did $5500 in sales today.

I wish I could have 5 minutes at work just to sit and relax (like that will happen). Too busy. I agree, I hate having nothing to do at work.
