Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Good Things About Current Temp Assignment:

Own office with view.
Desk situated so computer faces me and nobody can sneak up on me.
Workload is grinding through a backlog of stuff. Steady but nothing crazy urgent. Some computer, some files. Not difficult but requiring some database familiarity. Could go on for a while.
Free fruit (bananas, apples, pears, persimmons, pomegrantes)
Free crackers (Wheat Thins, Ritz, Club, Saltine...)
Starbucks Coffee Machine that fresh grinds beans for your coffee
Free water and juice (including the fizzy water I usually pay for)
Free Cup O' Soups (five flavors)
Nice (if harried) supervisor

Negatives
None really. Except for the whole "they made me do stuff I didn't really want to do" aspect. Plus getting up and going to work. Still, if you gotta have a temp assignment...

Incidentally, while I'm in the same building as my previous job, I use a different elevator bank. So I only run into people in the lobby.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Obesity Warnings May Appear on Clothes for Overweight People

Warning, Fatty, wearing this clothing allows you to go out in public?

Warning: Hey! You're really big! This Shirt is proof!

The Surgeon General has determined that if you wear this you need to lose a few. Just FYI in case you didn't know.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Pomegranates?!? Cool.

I have a t-shirt that says in large letters across the front :

Pssst...

I'm HUGE!

It doesn't specify, though...

Joe and I are going to MICHIGAN!! We're going to Con!!

I saw that. That's very cool. I'm very jealous.

Free pomegranates is also very cool. I'd be jealous, except there's a tree in our back yard that throws them at me every year, so I'm good.

If you take nothing else away from The Wizard of Oz, it should be the lesson that trees like to throw their own fruit at people.
