If someone stopped massaging me after 20 minutes, I'd feel near duty-bound to kill them.

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

Make sure it's got a hofbrau carving station and I'm in. They had this at the Fed when I worked there. Roasted lamb sandwiches with au jus gravy. Guh.

I've been known to go into work still wearing my pajamas. It's nice.
The other side of that particuar coin is the lack of clean drinking water and danger of Tetanis and bubonic plague.
I would really, really appreciate the masseuse thing. Wheelbarrows full of muck can have a terrible effect on the back, perhaps unsurprisingly.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jars, where are you with sketchy drinking water?

In the middle of a field. We've got a tap connected to some pipe or other, but it's not drinkable until we boil it. Which we can do when we have electricity, but that goes from time to time, usually on the coldest, blusteriest days of the year.

I just really really need to be able to wear jeans to work, is all.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

I wish.

Our dress code is business casual, which means we can even get away with t-shirts (as long as they aren't blatantly undershirts or offensive) and jeans.
My Office is business casual (supposedly) too. This seems to mean that men can get away with Khaki's and polos, thin women with long sleeved button down or nice pullover shirts and black twill pants, and the fat women (like me) need to wear skirts, heels and a jacket or cardigan or a VERY DRESSY blouse, or we get talked to for not dressing appropriately.

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'm wearing cute jeans right now!
Today is my cute nephew's first birthday.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I actually prefer wearing suits and stuff, not sure why, but in jeans I don;t want to be at work, I want to be out doing my stuff. ok, that's most days anyway, but moreso in jeans.
