Woke up extra early today, yawned big while brewing coffee, thinking ’bout my stalled job promotion. Boss keeps dodging the raise talk. Scratched my head, remembered that Virgo horoscope site everyone at work chats about. Figured, why not? Pulled up the ol’ laptop still crusty from yesterday’s toast crumbs.
The Clicking Around Part
Typed in the website name real slow, one key at a time like a grandpa. Site loaded slow as molasses, blinking ads everywhere. Nearly spilled coffee finding the damn “Horoscope” button. Had to pick “Virgo” from a long list – scrolled past “Aquarius” twice ’cause my eyes skipped.
- Saw “Career Moves” headline shouting in big bold letters – kinda shouty.
- Stuff about “strategic planning” and “organize something.” Real helpful, huh?
- Then it said some fluff like “Your efficiency shines bright today!” Felt like my dusty lamp.
Honestly, it read like fortune cookie paper. Kept waiting for the “essential move” part. Didn’t show up. Felt my shoulders slump.
The Real Office Drama
Just sighed and closed the tab. Didn’t solve squat. Bossman pinged me for “urgent meeting” right after. Thought, hey, horoscope might be onto something! Went in hopeful.
Nope. Just more budget cut excuses and talk about “tightening belts.” Felt cheated. That Virgo advice was about as useful as a screen door on a submarine.
What I Actually Did Next
Got cranky. Took ten minutes stomping around the parking lot muttering. Came back in, grabbed the project files the boss ignored for months. Dusted ’em off real dramatic like. Started crunching numbers MYSELF.
Printed a fat report showing how my team could save cash WITHOUT cuts. Slapped it on his desk. Bold move? Sure felt like it. Not ’cause some stars said so. Just ’cause I was dang mad.
Still waiting to see if he reads it tomorrow. Horoscope site probably says “wait for cosmic signs” or whatever. Meh.
