September 26, 2002-9:05 p.m. I swear it�s true, y�all! The trucker�s daughter has been promoted to the training staff. I can only guess that they�re going for a sort of side show aesthetic up there with Sailor Moon, TD and that lady that likes to say �radio buttons�, but I digress. I saw TD the day she interviewed for the position. She was wearing a black sleeveless dress (which I later discovered came with a matching jacket), black hose, black low-heeled pumps and a matching pearl (imitation, I�m sure) bracelet and necklace set. Without the jacket, she looked like she thought she was going to a cocktail party. Don�t worry; the new position hasn�t affected her attire one iota. She is still wearing those hideous t-shirt suits and her hair is as unkempt as ever. I�ve tried to imagine what might have happened if I had come to work that first day of training five years ago and instead of the poised instructor I had, the trucker�s daughter had been my trainer. I�m thinking I might have lasted until the first break. Last week was the first week in her new position. I thought she would be spending all of her time in the training department (aka set of the movie �Freaks� �One of us, one of us�) far away from me. I came back to work on Wednesday after being out sick for the first part of this week. I was at Big T�s desk and he was telling me what a great pleasure it was to have my sunny face back in the building and how much everyone had missed me while I was out, he even made an announcement to the team letting them know each day when I wasn�t going to be there, blah, blah, blah. Suddenly, in some sort of surreal Whack-A-Mole kind of move, the trucker�s daughter popped up from behind the wall behind Big T and then just as suddenly sat back down ~once she realized that the object of all of this adulation was indeed�her evil nemesis, Sa~ Mwahahahaha! Before I even had time to think, and quite uncontrollably, I assure you, my middle finger thrust itself out and sort of jabbed in the direction from whence the horrible apparition had come. Big T turned completely red and said, �See Sa, that�s why it�s such a joy to have you here!� **Disclaimer: All characters in this diary are fictional.
