two rants for the price of one

I support the immigration protests and protestors, but damn, that was some jacked-up traffic. I work in city hall; from a coworker's window I could see people milling around, going to and from the rally site, and walking to my car at the end of the day, I could hear speeches.
It's been a while since I ranted about work or politics, let alone both at once. It's kind of an interesting change of pace to be furious with the Cube Neighbor From Hell because she's a hateful, worthless human being and not just because she doesn't pull her own weight, likes to make more work for me even though I do three to four times as much as she does (this is not hyperbole - my boss told me this in a performance review, I would have estimated it lower) and uses her working hours to have weepy phone fights with her relatives in my hearing.
( God, I am so close to just killing her with the serrated edge of my tape dispenser. )
I'm really, really not going to miss this job.
