The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I am buried under a pile of work so large I think it may have been a mudslide.

Speaking from experience, watch out for the papercuts. They are what will get you, every time.

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

Is your skirt still wet? Then it may be a mudslide.

Do you have sharp pieces of rock digging into your skin? Then it may be a mudslide.

At least you have the mudslide. My own nails are the sharp objects trying to desperately claw out my eyeballs at this time. I cannot blame it on any sort of natural disaster. The disaster is entirely man-made.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I just don't understand why I don't get paid more for this. Or why I'm a secretary when I'm responsible for so. much. shit.

nodding so hard my head falls off

Tell me about it. I just had my review today. "You need to be sure these things don't fall through the cracks" 10 min later "We're going to need you to add to your duties."

Because TPTB are always trying to get something for less than it's worth. The title you may be able to do something about. Reclassifications of positions aren't unheard of.

Oooh, Allyson! If you work really hard, you might be Senior Secretary.

I am a Senior Secretary. I should be an Administrator. I think.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

If you work really hard, you might be Senior Secretary.

I originally read this as "SeƱor Secretary" and had to do a double-take.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

I get testy with Southerners who make blanket statements about New Yorkers,

Hey! Ginger's met my dad!

Heh, I was just in Pensacola with the southern branch of the family, and the inevitable (no, really, it is inevitable in this group) blanket statement about yankees came up, but a firm, "Hey, now..." from yankee me cut 'em all off at the pass. Sometimes, they forget. I remind them.
