Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!  

[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.

What is even happening?

Gud, thank you, I've passed along your advice. Windsparrow, I've passed along your advice as well. That's a game she already plays, and likes.

hello again! i'm posting from I40 outside Little Rock today. Ellie is sound asleep despite her little teeth poking through her gums. (flea, no good pictures yet) we managed to get a room despite Rita and weather here is clear but hazy.

We will be back in NC tomorrow.

Stephanie! Hi. Welcome almost home.

Punishingly Intricate

Exempt from overtime = managers.

Or anyone they say is exempt. I manage noone and I don't get overtime.

I am eating a delicious apple though.

Trust my rage

Even though I can post on the road, I still feel so out of touch with everyone. It's nice to be able to say hi. OK, off to check my flist.

I'm a non-manager exempt as well.

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

Exempt from overtime = managers.

Non-exempt from overtime = peons (who get overtime).

I've only once been a manager, always been exempt. That seems like an artifact of a previous definition, and no longer generally applicable, at least in my employment areas.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Thanks! I always mix it up.

I'd get three weeks vacation, bumping to four after two years. After twenty years it goes to five. duuude.

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

I've only once been a manager, always been exempt.

That's because you're a computer person. Employers get to treat them "special". Managers are just one category of people generally considered exempt.

Trudy, those sound like good bennies. Yay!

Also, Hi, Stephanie and Family! Yay for being almost home!

I'm at work now. Yay!

(Apparently I am full of yays today. Money can do that to you.)

ION, I sent an e-mail to the director of the Center I work at asking for some help with Operational Definitions for my independent study project. Apparently, EVERYONE in the Center knows I sent that e-mail, and I'm a little embarrassed. He doesn't check his own e-mail, and yada yada yada.
