Tales and Songs from Weddings and Funerals

Between my selfish roommate and my irrisponsible co-worker I swear to god people are out to get me. My roommate who just returned from time abroad has resettled herself back into our apartment - and drank all the beer in the fridge and didn't go shopping for 6 days, thus effectively consuming all of my food. Usually this won't bother me, but she ate the food that I cooked after I finished the dishes. And last night when I reminded her of the dessert I made (but had not eaten), she helped herself to a massive piece, added ice cream and plopped down on the sofa next to me... and ate. Without even offering to cut me a piece.. 'Whatever when I got up to do dishes I cut myself some... She also gets cranky when her dog is not walked and fed - I get that she works, but really it's not my dog and I work to - she could walk it in the morning and feed it when she gets home but she never does. I actually feel sorry for the dog - it doesn't get outside for longer than a few minutes unless I take it for a walk. I enjoy having company in the small down setting - but I really hate feeling like my kindness is being abused... I swear sometimes it feels like I am babysitting.

Now lets talk about my co-worker, Meghann, who spends her entire shift using MSN and typing up cover-letters to apply for other jobs at other places. She has an on call job so more often than not everyone else's shifts get changed at the last min. to accomodate her - but we are currently so short staffed that our supervisor can't do anything about it. Even better when I come in for my morning shift after she has closed down - I spend the 1st hour reversing her mistakes, and doing the tasks that she didn't bother to do! I hate cleaning up after people, she leaves early, and makes mistakes left-right-and-centre, doesn't bother to do things, and won't take the time to learn what she doesn't know how to do. She just leaves little notes with - Angela, can you take care of XXYZ for me?? ARG.
