Sooooo, this is a story worth re-telling......my Tuesday Night floor Hockey league, to put it nicely.....is not run by a very nice woman, she has no consideration for the people who play in her leagues (ZERO customer service, no custom jerseys, she makes you wear the crappy t-shirts when you play which is terrible for someone like me since I sweat like a FIEND in them and I hate it, no concept of how to run a hockey league and she is generally disliked by....well.....everyone.....) the rink we play at also drains very poorly and all the rain we got last night was enough for the rink to "puddle up" and be unplayable....so around 3pm today she cancels our game....no big deal I decide to get my exercise in I will walk to the gym (a lil over five miles each way), get my hockey week is done massage and loosen up and walk back home...... I lie down on the massage table.... my phone goes CRAZY "dude we need you in goal tonight!!!" ... "What?!?!? The game is canceled!?!?!?" ..... "No she just re-activated it and made it an hour later" (so now I have to walk the 5 miles back in a hurry, get in the house, get all my hockey stuff and then make the 20 mile drive....in rush hour....to get up there for the game.... I'm kinda boned......
.....lesson in life.... make friends EVERYWHERE people.....it pays off......so I'm telling the manager (who adores me) about all this....she says hold on a minute....she goes around the ENTIRE gym....and gets one of the trainers to drive me home....all is saved right.....I'll be in goal and save the day right???
Right as the guy drops me off at home.....phone goes off AGAIN.... "We don't have enough to play since she canceled the game in the first place..... game's back off again"
all that work.....and ruined my massage.....and she hockey-blocked me....TWICE....in the same night.....I want to be enraged....but yet its so damned funny....and sad .....all in one.....
