I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
"Can we get this today, ASAP????"

Get them to email it to you under an assumed name, and throw the book at them!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My boss kvetched at me for not doing other people's jobs, and so I've started doing them.
It is irritating to have to pick up the slack for people who aren't even in my department, but damn, it feels good to be able to close out a project (and cc their management to boot).

Anonymous trolling: illegal.
Using laundered money to fund redistricting Texas to marginalize minority and/or Democratic voters: a-ok.
Monitoring communications of unconvicted citizens without a court order: peachy.

Well, now I'm working on something for the CEO, which means that I know exactly what my priorities are on incoming requests...

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

See, that's only an issue if you're being annoying. In this case, it's the content that's annoying.

Ha! The guy whose task I completed piped up to object. Know what'd have stopped me from doing it? If at any time in the past four weeks he'd responded to my requests for status. Since completing it too early doesn't break anything, I can't be arsed to care. He'll just have to do it over again.
