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

Thanks, shrift. I remember the character now, but I wonder if I skipped a disc, because I don't remember how he got that way.

(Sorry about them going all Milton on you, shrift.)

Management apparently doesn't know who I am and have my name wrong, so I'm even more entertained.

I have a papercut that won't stop bleeding and I'm about to get a nametag for the first time even though I've been working here for almost a year.

I don't remember if they showed how he got that way. In fact, I'm pretty sure they didn't between when he showed up in episodes 6 & 7 and then disappeared for over 25 episodes.

Uh-oh. Do they let you play the radio as long as it's kept at a reasonable volume?

I got scolded by security this morning for parking in Visitor parking. Yes, fine, perfectly valid, but you people have more money than Jesus and more parking spots than anyone could ever need. Are you really going to make me park on the complete other side of the garage in my last week here? (Answer: Yes, they are.)

That's a bit of a relief. Thanks again.

I have a red Swingline stapler that I am now tempted to bring to work while muttering about fire. Fire. FIRE.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Mmmkay...?

I'm not a teacher, but since a co-worker has gone on maternity leave, I've been getting up at 6:45 to do the morning load and e-mail that has to get done before 7:30. I've got a work laptop now, so at least I can do it from home and go back to bed after finishing, but I still have to come in before 10:00 (preferably by 9:00). Normally, this wouldn't be a problem, but the cat has taken to meowing at me from the bedroom doorway at 5:00 am and not shutting up. It's very annoying, and makes it difficult to fall back asleep for those last two hours of sleep.
