You've tried really hard, Gud. I've been impressed.ETA: "She Works Hard For The Money" "Take this Job and Shove It." "It's Five O' Clock Somewhere."

I am doing a playlist on iTunes called SHOVE IT! filled with angry cathartic songs I can play after a shitty day at work. It's fun! Any suggestions?

L7-Shove? Shit list? I Don't Like You- The Muffs?

"Youth Against Facism" by Sonic Youth. Although is is more of a political angry cathartic song... and in the same vein, "Mosh" by Eminem.

"Song 2" by Blur is always pretty cathartic. And "You're Never Gonna Get Ahead by Giving Head to the Man" is a fun 'I Hate Work' kind of song.

The Headstones, "Fuck You," is one of my go-tos.

"Damn It Feels Good To Be a Gangster" - especially good for work b/c of the Office Space connection.

Johnny Cash's Sixteen Tons.

I printed out the return info for the TIVO and DH is boxing it up.

I know, I should be happy for the refund that will be coming considering how painful bill paying was this month, but still. I want to crawl in a hole for the balance of the weekend.

A voice from the past, or "meara hasn't read bitches in days and days":

Hil, DC law *specifically* forbids discrimination in housing (and other things, too, I think, but I've only heard re: housing) based on student status. So although you may not want to have that fight with her, I feel like you should tell her she could get in mega trouble for that shit.

I want a two bedroom 1300 sq foot apartment for $1200. I *might* be able to get one, but it'd be waaaaaaaaaaaay out in the boondocks. I'm going to be paying nearly that for my...300? sq ft one bedroom.

Maidengurl, I think you should take the offers from another department, cause you're getting screwed by your current one! But yay for hubby's job giving him a van, even if a beat-up one?

Sean made a roux?? Is that something you can MAKE in the microwave from frozen things?!?!? :)

Speaking of body types and fashion, how would you dress this woman?

I might have to tell her to avoid clothing altogether. I'm sure she's super hot in the nude.

I do, however, agree with the others that a bra would be a good start. So many women would look so much better with a well-fitted bra.

an article I just found about the hiring process at Google's cafeteria

I want google's cafeteria. How come I have no useful skills needed by Google? Sigh.

Oh, Maidengurl! I am so sorry, returning the TiVO?!?! That's sad and desperate measures. You poor thing. (Edit: it occurs to me this could be read as sarcastic, and also that the fact that it ISN"T might be saying pathetic things about my life and what's important, but...TiVO!)

I think Daisy's suggestion of "Shit List" by L7 is tops. Seems like you need some PJ Harvey on there.
