Had a surprisingly painless quarterly/annual review. Which is totally not fair, because I am a terribly lazy, unambition but highly efficient slacker. I really should be called on it.

I had that same review last week! Way better than I deserved, frankly, which is nice, considering all the other bs I'm currently dealing with at work.

It really doesn't motivate me to maintain or develop a better work ethic. Or rather, drag my work ethic back from the islands and make it do something. Which allows for me to continue not caring about disliking the job so much my work ethic went awol and thus I continue to manage to not get out and do something I might actually like.

If that makes any sense outside my head.

My review shows up sometime this week. We'll see.

Thank you, flea.

HR reported (in a small committee meeting a friend of mine attended, not a press release) that 15% of Looniversity employees are on antidepressants, and treatment of depression is the largest single medical expense.

Wow. And I expect that's just for the folks who are officially diagnosed. As I understand it, there are many people who would be considered clinically depressed but never get diagnosed, and who self-medicate through over-eating, over-drinking, drug abuse, risky behaviors, etc.

World's Longest Dosa

Sankalp Restaurant, (from Sankalp Group of Restaurants) Andheri branch, broke its own record of making the longest dosa. This was the second time after its first record in 1997,that a restaurant, from the Sankalp group, managed to appear in the Guinness Book of World Record. This dosa worth Rs.15000 can serve 30 to 35 people.

As per its first record, a 25-feet long Dosa was prepared on a 27-feet long tawa, by a team of 10, carried by a crew of six and served, a group of 25.

This time however, the dosa was an astonishing 30- feet long, prepared on a tawa that was an astounding 32-feet long. It had 20 ‘V’ shaped burners fixed in such a way, that the heat could be spread uniformly, all over the 32-feet tawa. A group of 16 expert chefs, prepared this dosa out of 12kgs of batter and 10-12kgs of oil.

ita, can't recall if I asked you or just thought I should so pardon if this is a reask.

I am going to have the PADI cd duped until the post office sees fit to return our package to one of us. Want one? It's a pretty darn informative cd actually.

Want one? It's a pretty darn informative cd actually.

I'd love it! Thank you so much.

No, but we are planning on using our VIP Line Passes to cut the line at the Bellagio's superdeluxe fancy buffet, and make the plebian masses shake their fists at us with bitter class consciousness.

So much cooler.

Phone pep is super easy, especially in limited doses.

I will need to look up both "dosa" and "tawa" before I follow that link.

This kitty's gone to heaven...

Thank you SO MUCH for the Pixies earworm.

Why is everything exclaimy today? Apparently I also have the occasionally chipper posting manner, too!

Alibelle = adorable!

Are there any plebian masses at the Bellagio?

They allow them in to gamble in carefully-controlled doses.
