"She's still got an extra million? Good for her, man."
And it's not even the first million she's donated to charity! I'm totally seeing her next movie.
you + fear = comedy gold
Laugh it up, wee fist lady. Laugh it up.
So a co-worker (of whom I have too many) just started a joke with "So, a pig and a chicken cross a road..." And then he went back to work.
Does anyone
know
(as opposed to "find themselves able to make up") that joke? I have to give him extra clever points if I think he was tossing out a fake joke lead-in.
Maybe it's a penis in a cup.
And again, the first thing that sprang to my mind was the pubic hair comments.
There's a pimp fair?
Well, it's more of a convention, really.
The exempt/non exempt issue doesn't have much to do with hourly vs salaried-- it's about your job duties. Federally, more people are now considered exempt under Bush's regulations than they were under Clinton's, but in California, the basic assumption is that you are non-exempt.
The Renaissance Pimpe Faire!
I shudder.
The Renaissance Pimpe Faire!
But I bet the Renaissance pimps had extra extra-colorful costumes.
Huh. I'd been going with a definition like about.com's:
Non-exempt employees receive hourly wages; they are subject to wage and hour laws, i.e. overtime pay; usually applies to non-professional employees.
Do you have a link to the strict definition, Lee?
The view out my window five minutes ago. This is why a tree branch fell from forty feet up and landed next to my car. Plus which it got up to a whopping 23 degrees today. If this doesn't clear off by Friday afternoon in time for my flight to New York, well, I'll probably pout.
ita's co-workers are the best ever. They may have all decided to say things to you and then just walk off without reaching a conclusion - BRILLIANT!
I will laugh it up like the rest of the normally sized people with normal sized hands thankyouverymuch.
I'm going to say something terrible.
I'm all tsunami'd out. I'm not giving any tsunami money. I wouldn't give the red cross a dime, anyway.
I think what's likely to happen is that billions of dollars will flow into the arms of the government while the poor die of cholera and children are sold to brothels. Billions will be "lost" to "administrative" costs or "rebuilding efforts" and people will starve and die while governments get fat.
And then we'll see it all on 20/20 in a year in some fucking Diane Sawyer exclusive.
So. I'll continue giving a few bucks to Heiffer.org when I can, places like that. Local charities, too. I'm just tsunami'd out.
I feel like I did when Mariah Carey was in an evening dress singing god bless america with Willie Nelson.
Co-worker #2 was defending himself. I told him the last thing he'd said to me wasn't funny enough. He started with the pig thing, and I told him he still needed more work. But I wonder if he had the cojones to be bluffing...
The other guy is a big old meanie who's attacked me. You like him.
True, that scenario would be a pretty good fad to start Hollywood on.
Yes. Since we had to suffer through
Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous,
I think it's only right. They're always ostentatious in one way, or another. Let it be where it matters. Don't spend a lot of money on your own birthday party, feed the hungry, house the homeless, get medical care and medicine to the sick, water to the thirsty.
