So, as most of you may or may not have already figured out...stuff tends to happen in my life. Strange stuff. Take today for instance, I answered the phone at work as usual and then put the person on hold while I went to check something for them. Nothing out of the ordinary, right? WRONG. I got the person STUCK on hold. Yeah, you heard that right. Stuck. I kept pushing the button I would normally push to resume the call but it wasn't working. It kept trying to get me to make a new call but the button wouldn't change colors indicating the call had been dropped. So as I sat there, thoroughly puzzled, I couldn't help but laugh. The poor person on the other side!! I couldn't even hang the call up. They were sitting there, lost amidst the phone lines somehow completely unaware of my predicament. I had no choice but to just leave them waiting for about three minutes. Of course, when I tried three minutes later to resume the call, the phone didn't give me any problems.
Later, as I told one of the IT people, she just laughed at me. "You and your crazy problems," she said. I have to agree with her. The problems I do seem to have do seem to be quite unorthodox. Once, I even managed to accidentally get my screen flipped upside down so that I could only view what was on my computer upside down and I was left with no way to fix it. The poor computer people are always having to field calls of my bizarre problems.
Anyways, among other things Olive Garden has started their "Unlimited Pasta Bowl" for just $9.99. It was officially kicked off yesterday and runs for five weeks. Guess who one of the first people in line for the kickoff of this promotion was? Yes, yours truly. The servers were laughing at me as I told them how excited I was for this and how I had been waiting all day for it. Just another day in the life of Rhi. Everywhere I go, I somehow seem to amuse people. But its mostly by accident. I'm being Rhi and they think it to be hilarious. I suppose that's Rhi-ality for me =).
