"Good morning/afternoon, Company X, How may I help you?"
I will confess that when people answer like that, I often can't quite parse the words, so then I respond, "I'm sorry, is this Company X?" And then they think I'm a dumbass.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I don't think I can survive another three hours of work.
Too. Much. To. Do.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've never really gotten used to the disembodied voice thing.
How about the little people in the glowing box?
I answer my work phone with my full name. I know it's trouble when people say "Hello <lastname>!" They don't know me, and aren't paying attention.
Then again, I get a surprising number of people who leave messages for a business on my home line, and my outgoing message is half in French.

Eh, you are all imaginary, and I don't have to talk to you if I don't want to right that second. (You may have noted I don't have any sort of IM, either.)

I am just putting away the writing stuff for the day. Too aggrevating.
The plans aI thought I had for tomorrow are really for Sunday, so the plans I made for Sunday are now botched.

Yes you do! Come back, sarameg!
I just got handed a Microsoft Project document where there are only sometimes commas between the resource names. Hmm.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
