"she's very smart, but she's not working up to her potential".
I think every teacher I've ever had has said some variation of this. I've done a bit better at hoodwinking the bosses.
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm just glad that lately I've been getting what I think of as inordinate amounts of praise for the quality of my work. I mean, I'm working like a dog to get the amount I am done, but I don't think the basic quality is any better than what I was doing last year and getting 2-month afterwards "What's the meaning of this? WHO IS TO BLAME?!?" carpet calls.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
ita, you have my sympathy. I fucking hate reviews!
I've been totally lazily coasting. I'm looking for a new job to forestall being fired, and, well, because I'm bored and unhappy being this underutilized.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

While the ingenuity and the effort put into creating those claws is impressive, and far more than I would ever put in to a costume, the cynical part of my brain thought "All that and he couldn't figure out how to make a pair of gloves that would hide the fact that he's got a keyboard tray strapped to his arm?"

This is why I don't want to have my annual review, yo. I mean, no one has held this position at the current volume of work that I am processing, but I'm sure I'll get dinged.

Poor Jamey though, who had to wait through all that buildup.

At least our second-biggest client really likes me. He always thanks me for getting stuff done so quickly. He's also into old cars, especially Corvairs. I really impressed him when I knew about the turbocharged Corvair and correctly explained why the early models (of all Corvairs) were so prone to rolling over.

Thrive to spite them
I don't know if anyone's posted about this...
Yahoo has an on their main page for a new tv by Sony. It's billed as "The world's first television for men and women."
I clicked the ad to find out why it's the first for men and women, but there wasn't anything, now I'm left hanging. I have no idea if my current tv is a men's tv or a women's tv. Or why their tv is now unisex.
