Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I had a cat named Noodle. She was a princessy little bitch. We liked her.
Grunting, belching, farting, chewing -- these are not work sorts of noises
I laugh because I can hear my officemate's tummy grumble. That is something you have no control over.
You know what? I have this horrible suspicion that it will be him or me in layoffs. Gonna SUCK.
Harumph. People who begin their names with lower-case letters, dissing my capitalization skills.
Noodling (catching fish with your hands) becomes legal in Georgia tomorrow.
I have to ask...there was more than one person in a position of legislative authority that wanted to do this? Why?
Apparently there was a strong pro-noodling lobby. Until they passed the law, I had assumed that if a fish wandered into your hands, it was fair game. Not that I've ever noodled myself.

Ugh. Would there be decent severage, anyway?
He'll get it. I won't. See, I'm a subcontractor. My company does it differently. We don't get severance, but we do get 2 weeks notice (as opposed to 2 days with limited account access) and supposedly the company actually tries to place us elsewhere. Not sure if we get paid in the placement period. I think there is some interval in which we don't, but still have benefits and all that. Not sure. Well, if I have to find out, I will.
Oof. Good luck.
And, of course, remember that sometimes Change Is Good.
I hope you don't have to find out, unless you want to, sara.

Kill him now, reduce the competition.

I have friends in Arkansas that wax poetic about the art of sticking your hands under the shady bank of a river to grab unsuspecting catfish. They say stuff like, only one in two or three times will you get ahold of something that will give you a nasty bite.

But I like him! He's been my officemate most of 8 years.
And as Jesse said, change can be good. Especially for me. I just don't like it.
Good luck, sarameg. With however it turns out.
