Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Dear Co-Worker:

When you're calling on the phone from a tradeshow in Seattle and need me to Next Day AM you something you forgot to take with you just after I've gotten news I'm going to be laid off as a cost-cutting measure may not be the best time to mention the fine French meal you and your Marketing compatriots enjoyed on the company credit card last night.

KTHNXBYE

shrift,

I hope they find your bag and get it to you soon. One of my co-workers got her bag delivered right to our door this morning via someone from the airline or some courier or something. She was shocked, as was I. I hadn't heard of an airline being that good about returning something they'd lost.

Spidra, if it were me, I probably would have said that out-loud thinking I had nothing left to lose...

my favorite thing - when I was working for a software company that decided it didn't need software testers anymore - Was when they stood right outside my cube and talked about demolishing it for the remodel. the only reason I didn't say anything, is becuase DH still works there.

He's the one who helped me get hired here. I think it was just being momentarily clueless on his part. In previous times, I probably would have pointed it out to him, but I didn't feel like it this time. Too distracted by this damned sinus stuff which is making my whole head throb.

Yeesh, beth.

Last week, the publisher and two of the big wigs from Corporate and a senior manager here went across the street to a microbrewery/restaurant to have a "business meeting". More of our cost-cutting measures, no doubt.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I have abrasions on my shoulder from carrying around my books all day. Sheesh.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

My arms are sore from swimming. Also, I have marks around my eyes from the goggles.
