Woo hoo Shrift - for the gainful employment.
Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
YAY SHRIFT!!
If possible, my work from hime day was just as stressful as being in the office. WTF!?!?! My workplace is seriously chaotic right now and I am hating it. I must have had to tell 5 different people to actually read my emails today because they would respond back without answering anything that I had asked.
and the one thing I needed done for me, didn't get done.
I am logging out and walking away from the computer. I think a bath before tv tonight.
BSG better be FUCKING Good or I am having hateful dreams.

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

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

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Congrats, shrift!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Hey, I just realized that no one said anything about last night's GA (which I will be watching tonight).
Why not? Was it bad?

Ok, shrift is getting a big head around now ...
Well, really, what is wrong with that?
Yay, shrift!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There's this document inspection process we do that takes four people through 250 lines of a document in two hours. It's mandatory that people come in totally prepared, with an assembled list of questions referenced by line number. Then we fine tooth come the document for flaws, and without fixing them, note them for the author to fix later.
It's a hell of a taxing procedure. While I think it would improve all the documents we produce and those we have to use from others, it's going to be a bitch to get buy-in from people who haven't done the training.
On Monday I'm moderating an inspection with 8 participants. To encourage them to read before showing (I know these people. They won't read) I told them to submit their questions to me by 9am Monday morning or don't bother showing.
But more politely.
The person who's told me to shoehorn in a review panel into a formal inspection process replied to all telling them their presence was mandatory. I emailed her asking her to encourage all these people that their PARTICIPATION and preparation were what's important.
Nothing yet.
I have 8 people, about 500 lines of document, and 90 minutes. I need to work out how to tweak things so it's not such an obvious setup to fail.

Oh, I don't think so. I've been job-searching for about six months now, so all I'm feeling is relief that I'll be able to pay my bills and not have to write more cover letters for a little while.
