I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm sorry, ita. I hope the job hunting process is quick and productive.

Not hugging ita, but damn. That sucks. And only two weeks severance? Shit. I hope the recruiter finds you something amazing superquick!!

I'm kinda worried about my own job--the company is in trouble, and last night at a party, the wife of one of the doctors was telling me about how he was looking for a new job!! That can't be a good sign, dude.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Damn, ita. You've gotta have some really awsome karma coming to you soon.

Today I was asked to provide a written record of an "incident" that could jeopardize a co-worker's job (I found a pot stash in the bathroom). I'd kinda rather not.

Well, shit. Is this going to be another round of kick the Buffista for this month? Damn well tired of that shit.

Good luck with the job search, ita. I hope you find a better paying job closer to home.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh. That sucks.

Could you just be vague and non-committal on what you found, when, etc?

I blame shrift, really. She just took all my ex-MI mojo.

But... fuck! I mean, all I did today was find out where the good coffee was, successfully remember the code to the bathroom door, fill out forms to get paid, and try not to yawn too much while scribbling down notes.

That's not much mojo, man. There's a lot more to happiness than diuretics and W-2s, even if a mocha is a good way to start.
