Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Coding and Sleeping

That's really awful vw. The taking away benefits part, not the roomate part.

That sucks about the job, vw, but good news on the roommate. He's the one who got on really well with Toto, right?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yay roomate! Boo benefits take backs. That's so wrong.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Damn, I don't think you have a choice but to leave. You can't really trust them to do what they say. I'm sorry vw.

I think this is going to be a deal-breaker for me, though. If they take this back, I don't know that I'm going to stay.

I think that's the right choice. It's no longer the job you were originally offered.

I personally would have bailed after the no insurance thing occurred. You have given it your all!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Big!Boss told my boss to "clarify" with me that I don't get sick/personal time after she saw my last timesheet. Thing is, I've been paid sick time before.

That's ridiculous. What are they going to do next, "clarify" your wages 10% lower?

Mostly lurking...

Thank you everyone for your validation. I was worried I was over-reacting.
