Natter 47: My Brilliance Is Wasted On You People  

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.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

ita, I feel your pain. we are now having a walk through of each new site with the management team in a meeting because they will not do it on their own when we email them the links. And what happened the one time we already had one of these?? We could barely keep them focused on what they were supposed to be looking for - typo's, not functioning links, incorrect information. No, they were discussion layout and design.

These are the same people that want our schedules shorter and shorter.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yay Shrift! Work is good.

Plans for the weekend are hanging with juliana, smonster, amyth and KateP in Nashville! I'm at the airport now, should be boarding soon.

I would like to state for the record that the "no liquids" rule can BITE ME. Checking a bag for a 3-day trip is just WRONG.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I hereby donate all of shirft's first paycheck to the A's bat boy.

Whatever a bat boy is, for whatever a bat boy does. If I knew more about baseball and paychecks, this would be an exciting post.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What's wrong with people?

I swear--if project management were only managing the project and not manhandling people into doing their jobs, it'd be so much easier. They don't need to be accountable to me--they just need to deliver. Be accountable to their job description, and their bosses. Or just the idea of their bosses, so I don't have to escalate. I hate the ill-will that usually creates.

Man, if only people who were too busy would say so before it was too late, before the meeting started, or before the client is totally excited about a future that'll never happen, or before the developers started working...

Unrelatedly, if my new massage therapist would show up on my doorstep with a cheeseburger and fries, life would be great. Unfortunately she doesn't know where I live. And she's vegan.

The Unit is interesting this week. They're not afraid to, almost in the same breath, laud the military and criticise parts of its infrastructure.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Have fun Jess!

Jessica, that does sound like a lot of fun. Tear the place up, will you?

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

Tear the place up, will you?

Dude, it's Jess, juliana, smonster, amyth and KateP! It's a given!

now if only they would start boarding the plane...

Cool. I found something that makes a difference.

Walking around.

So I won't be doing that anymore.

Congrats, shrift!

I will be doing two weekends worth of chores and errands.
