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.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oof. Good luck.

And, of course, remember that sometimes Change Is Good.

What is even happening?

I hope you don't have to find out, unless you want to, sara.

I can't even.

You know what? I have this horrible suspicion that it will be him or me in layoffs. Gonna SUCK.

Kill him now, reduce the competition.

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.

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.

Oh, I got that, I think I was caught up in the usual Natter zeitgeist. As a zombie, he'd be much less competition for you too. Goofiness aside (which is tough for me), I hope the job sitch works out well for you, stay or go (or zombification).

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

Best of the best, sara.

Yes, I just wished you Eric Roberts. What of it?

Aimée, where did you have the curry?

What is going on with American TV this summer? Between the Hit Me Baby One More Time and the Dancing With The Stars, I don't even know.
