Well, it's a work day, so the chances of me being irritated were pretty high.
Latest irritation: I work at the back reception desk, which, as we moved to a new building a couple of weeks ago and the logistics are different, is really much less of a reception desk. This is good! However, this makes the other admin's desk, in the front reception area, even more of a reception desk. Not too much my problem, except that I have to cover it when he (The Douche) is away from the desk for more than a couple of minutes. Which is ALL THE FUCKING TIME.
Last week, I sat at his desk all day Tuesday (he was allegedly at an auto repair shop), a total of about 3 hours on Wednesday (mostly in two chunks of 1 hour and 1.5 hours), all day Thursday ("family issues"), and all day Friday (his normal work-at-home day, but also "family issues" again). Since I work at home on Mondays, this means that I got to sit at my own desk for part of one day.
Today, he plans to leave at 1:30, so we're off to a good start for this week.
The stupid thing is, they are supposedly going to fire him ANY SECOND NOW. Supposedly. That has been the case for many weeks now, and I do not know what they're waiting for, unless they want to drive me INSANE first. Apparently once they do fire him, I'm supposed to move to the front desk, which sucks ass, but jesus christ, it might as well be my desk now anyway. I don't want to work at the front desk, but I do want to work at MY desk, wherever it may be.
Fucking douche.

ARGH, I cannot understand why they would be OK with this! You can't fully perform your own job duties at someone else's desk! Stupid, stupid.
