Gonna be another interesting day...

Point 1 - Working my ass off as you know; frustrated and tired of the BS @ work, as you know
Point 2 - Boss springs a "we need to go that reception @ 6 on Weds night so wear a jacket and tie" on me; I knew nothing about it, no invite, we never discussed it and I didn't want to go.
Point 3 - I said I thought I had plans. He said I could stop by for 5 minutes, didn't ask, just said it like I would
Point 4 - Told him on Tuesday I had a condo meeting (lie) and he said do what you have to do. Fine, done :)
Note: Turns out this reception is just a big free dinner for students and anyone else who shows up, I was told by others in power that I wouldn't be missed and it was lame for him to be browbeating me about it. He just didn't want to go.
Point 5: I went in at 8:30am yesterday so I could be there to get some things from his car trunk while he was on his way to a meeting. I as good soldier was there as promised.
Point 6: Had another wonderful day where I was forced to do everyone else's job even though I pushed back, dug my heels in and tried to do only what I was really supposed to do. It was exhausting.
Point 7: At 5:30 I left, he made some smartass remark about me "abandoning him" and I smiled and went to the gym with Boo - what I wanted to do.
Point 8: Of course, even though we walked a different way back to the parking garage, he walked past us with another professor and a student (at 6:45P mind you, not "right at 6") and yelled "The party's that way..." to which I just smiled (though surprised) yelled back "We're going to the parking garage, see you tomorrow" [we were in gym clothes]
Point 9: I spent the next hour frothing at the mouth while Boo patiently listened.
Point 10: I have to figure out what to say to him if he confronts me. Though basically I am going to tell him that I already told him I had plans and regardless of what those were, it was after work and it isn't right for him to be mad at me or hold it over my head. I hope he doesn't want to get into the ring and go a couple rounds because he will lose... In a way this is good b/c it precipitates the "I am not happy with my job" talk and will hopefully illustrate to him that he cannot expect make-up for every single other person in the dept who doesn't even meet basic expectations... I'm the frigging office manager who makes the salary of a public school teacher - ummmmm hello McFly! I am there to punch the clock and that is it!

Serenity now! What did I do to deserve this?!?! Why is being a good employee a punishable offense?! If I was a slacker like everyone else I would be on easy st!

BUT THE GOOD NEWS - I passed my other standardized test and score in the 90th percentile?!?!?!?!?!!? :-)

Now that makes me happy! Have a good day people. Prolly some more jock pics for cheerup later!
