I work in a tv station and the On-air time is always a headache and the day begins with a news bulletin.
But today was special. Last night me and the producer had some freaking problems in the studio that I ended up yelling at a technician woman
(point to be taken it was a woman).
I woke up sweating, catching up my breath having a nightmare where my best friend kicked me in the balls, literally. It was one and a half hours before my morning duty time. I knew If i slept again I couldnt get up for the duty again. So i gotup, bathed, had a coffee, headed to the office which was 3 minutes from my apartment.
I entered the stuido to see the technician woman speaking about last nights' incident and I was totally unaware of her untill I got notice of her after about two minutes. She was eating my flesh right infronta me. I was boiling. And finally I burst.
The worst thing to begin a day with, in my idea, is an Argument and my day was blessed with it. Hell!
I went to the tea room after news, to see her there. I didnt have my tea. I came to the newsroom to find the secretary yelling at me cos i didnt bring medical certififcates for the three day sick leave. My friend has it. Damn! I have to go to another island about 15 minutes away from Male, where I am. I had no choice. I went to the ferry terminal, took a ticket and saw to ferries infront of the harbour. I asked the old man at the gate,
Me: Which one is ready to leave? ( gesturing to the two ferries I noticed one with some people )
Old man: (a moment of glare and a sarcastic smile) Which one do you bet?
Me: Oh! so the one with the people, yeah?
and I started walking away saying " I dont go to Villingili very often, thats why I was a bit confused but thanks anyway ", when I heard him say "Dumbness is what!"
I was frozen. I turned around to see him with the eyes saying "asshole!"
Fifteen minutes and I was on the other island. I headed towards teh flat where my friend lives and ofcourse sleeps (A lot). I went through soem trouble calling his dad to figure out their apartment since my friend wouldnt pick up the fone when he is sleeping. I finally figured out the apartment, knocked.
A short, fair, middle aged man opened the door. I was a little confused since this man didnt look like my firend's dad, but no other man of tha tage lives there as far as I knew. I was welcomed and just to kill the seconds I said " I heard, Chiphan's dad (which was the polite way of refering to the man infront of me, in my language)was having neck injury. How is it now? " The man tried his best not to laugh at me but he couldnt help. " erm... Chiphans' dad is at work right now (smile ironically)" he said. I wished i disappeared. Gawsh! how on earth would have i confused a tall, nearly bald man for a short thick haired guy? I was so ashamed. I thanked and left.
I arrived at Male, and a friend of mine said hes coming to pick me up. It was at that moment it drakened the sky and started raining in a minute. I took a cab. I thought I wouldnt go to office without taking a bath. I went to my apartment, turned the lights on... It was dark. Electricity was temporarily disconnected for some maintenance purpose. "Perfect" I thought. I cant even flush my toilet without electricity.
I came back to office, all messed up, and I realized this was just the first three hours of the day. Gawsh! Lets see what He has in plan for the rest of it....![]()
