Maybe it's a penis in a cup.

I'm seeing more of a champagne flute.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

having hiring/firing power over 2 fulltime employees remains one of the qualifiers.

I don't think so. I'm exempt, and have always been -- it's more been a function of hourly or salaried, as I read it.

Now I can no longer look this co-worker in the face. Best not look at him at all, just in case.

Like an overgrown swizzle stick?

That depends on the penis, doesn't it?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

That depends on the penis, doesn't it?

I'm just being optimistic. If you're going to get a penis in a cup, it might as well be a big one. Why would someone go to all the trouble for a barely perceptable one?

Now I can no longer look this co-worker in the face. Best not look at him at all, just in case.

Well I wonder why. I'd refrain from drinking beverages too. No need for the imagination to ruin the pleasure of a good cup of coffee, tea, or alcohol.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

If you're going to get a penis in a cup, it might as well be a big one.

A big penis or a big cup?

Punishingly Intricate

Certainly not if having hiring/firing power over 2 fulltime employees remains one of the qualifiers.

It's not. I'm exempt and I have none of that power. (Or maybe I do...I'ma try to fire someone and see what happens...) As far as I know it is hourly = non-exempt and salaried = exempt. We don't get paid any more or (officially) get comp time for any hours over 40 that we work.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

sara, so is that.

I was talking pretty much about the occasional stink.

And that is SO MUCH MORE disturbing than stink.

Or the person in there whistling right now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You people are slaying me. I don't even know where to start.

Instead I will mention that Brad Whitford wrote tonight's West Wing.
