cut for swearing and crankiness.

You know the person I feel most sorry for in this whole Amazon debacle thing? That poor CS rep who's probably been fired for not asking a higher-up wtf was up with their 'new' system. Because I've been that CS rep, who organized emails and etc. by category (as best I could), and sometimes, sometimes, there IS NO criteria, and your boss? ALSO HAS NO FUCKING CLUE.

There was a whole month where we fielded calls and letters for our suddenly more 'fatty' ground beef. Oh, the horrors that caused the average person in Wisconsin. And during that month, we had no real clue why they'd changed, because those in charge? Didn't give a shit or bother to inform us why. So we had our own sort of babbly-gobbledy-gook to tell people. And even once or twice point-blank said, "I don't know." (I suspect that didn't go over well with the higher-ups.)

In other news, have I mentioned how much I HATE AND LOATHE AND WISH baseball season WOULD DIE? Seriously, if you're one of those people who drives the highway to get to your precious fucking waste of time sports game? I hate you. Seriously. It's fucking shitty enough to see people wasting money on such a pointless thing. But to then also have my drive home time doubled?

Yeah. Not pleased by that.

It's ok. I'm sorry, too. Hopefully, having gotten my rant off early on, I won't be so bothered (it doesn't help that it actually wasn't all that bad last year, so I felt sort of blind-sided yesterday).

Mostly, I shake my fist at them impotently as I drive.

If it makes you feel any better, I've never personally been to Miller Park on a weekday. (Only weekends...) So your traffic jams have never been my fault.
