you guys rent, right?
Yep. Because we only pay $895/mo for a 2BR, 1BA duplex house with fenced back yard and half a two-car garage. Can't ever move.
Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Swouncing
Or, well, something not at all like that.
What if I like your definition better? Also, as long as it works (and I've looked this word up, it definitely works!), why not? [Edit: of course, now I can't stop saying "persnickety" out loud to myself. If Tom were here, he'd thing the Israelis only send crazy people on time-travelling missions.]

That sounds like a miracle for LA.

Well, we do live in the Valley, and not on That side of the hill, but yeah.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That sounds like a miracle for LA.
It so is. To be anywhere in the area yet remotely inhabitable (which theirs is much more than, FTR) it's a sign that lori might be the chosen one to save all mankind.
Or at least SoCal. Hopefully not just the Valley.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Hey lori! Turns out, a woman I ride the train with every day (er, well, used to before my schedule got switched) lives in the front duplex of the set next to you.

Toddson, I am in no way an employment law specialist, but I'd say that you shouldn't be bound by new policies without being given notice. Changing the handbook on the network and assuming people are reading is not adequate notice.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
One that hits me especially is that he announced any staff who leave will only be paid for five days of accumulated leave time - anything over that will be lost.
It's up to state law. You definitely can't do that in California (because of laws about vacation accrual - not about changing the manual). East Coast states are more business friendly about the ability to cut-off accrued vacation, but what he's doing doesn't sound very kosher.

Forget that, man. I'm not taking on all that extra work!
