Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.
[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.

Y'alls are the bestest.
Now I wanna cry at work for a different reason. And I'm not even PMS'ing.
Dear New Guy -
Yes, the person who was in your job was damn near incompetent. Yes, he knew nothing about effective managing. Yes, he needed to pull his head out of his ass in order to drive and sign on his computer.
However, this does not mean that I, or anyone else in this office, is incompetent. The mere fact that this building made a profit those 2 years and did NOT fall down shows that we were obviously the brains behind the idiot.
Stop telling me how and when to do my freaking job.
Love, kisses and glitter -
The Empress
PS I will cut you
BTW Cindy, whereas I am generally in favor of thread titles being from Buffy or Angel, if we were going to use a non-buffyverse quote, your VM quote is the one I'd want. It's brilliant.
I have news.
I am having a good day.
First class: I was late. Ok. Whatever. It's a crazy day. I got my paper back, though, that I turned in on Monday. It had AMAZING comments, and was an A. Go me! (and Deena and Dad!)
Next thing: Tutoring. Student didn't need me, because she's an idiot and already turned in her paper. Whatever. Not my problem anymore.
Second class: Depressing Biology. Only, wait! The class average on the exam was a 70%! So, my 64%? A C!!!!!!!!!!!! Me = thrilled!
Next thing: Tutoring again. Student didn't finish paper. Asked me a few questions then let me go so she could finish. Once again, not my problem.
Next thing: lunch/hang out with Buffistas/finish final paper for Computers and Humans.
Oh, and I e-mailed my professor's comments to my therapist, because I'd read her the piece in therapy yesterday (it's about Radical Acceptance). She e-mailed me back the nicest e-mail.
I am having a good day. Go figure.
Woo hoo for vw's good day.
Wow, and with a biology sandwiched in the middle. Go vw!
Cindy, that is a good quote. I don't know why I'm such a traditionalist about this thread, but if it's not a Spike quote I get.. okay, I act like a baby, even if it's where you all can't see me.
If it helps, it was said to * Willow and Cordelia (in that order), only they're pretending to be someone else...s *.
That said, I totally get the BtVS quote desire, Deena.
::Whew:: for the C in biology, vw. At the risk of starting an educator kerfuffle, I have to comment that
The class average on the exam was a 70%!
would be considered pretty poor performance for the instructor if that instructor were outside of an educational institution. It just seems to me that an educator's effectiveness should be measured by how well they educate and there should be some accountability.
