my keyboard is misbehaving
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Definitely their loss, shrift, but a new and better opportunity will come knocking in the fullness of time -- you're a good worker, and the cream will rise to the top, in the long run.
ita, strength to you!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Too bad, shrift!
I just inserted myself into a budget issue that has nothing to do with me, just because my boss was freaking out SO BAD, and I can actually read a spreadsheet. Christ. Then she (boss) was dithering about all the other stuff she has to do, so finally I told her to go do some of it while we wait for other people to gather other information related to the budget issue. That's managing up, right?

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
Big old SUV on fire outside my building.
We're right above it, looking six floors down at the flames saying things like "if its a car bomb it won't get us here, right?"
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII Love New Yooooooooooooooork!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kat has been and gone-I am up a few pairs of socks and fun mags as a result.
Allyson, you need a job where you are well paid for bundling. Table setting, care package, down home meal, tuck box, whatever. Where are you even finding my food?
Yeah, you and Kat could make a killing.
I really don't need to miss work right now.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
You know what, I would really really love to see the exact wording of the Playboy sexual harassment policy. Like, they're a big corporation, so I know they have one; but, I mean, their whole business plan relies on "Could you jiggle a bit more?" and "Which shot should go on the cover, the naked one or the other naked one?"
What constitutes a welcoming work environment at Playboy? OMG, new-hire indoctrination has got to be hilarious!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, man, shrift, that sucks. Though, yes, "difficulty personalities" is possibly a clue that you dodged a bullet there. And now that I think about it, the other Buffista who is an ex-employee never seemed to miss it once she was gone.
I will not buy playboys in protest.
I have been proactively protesting Playboy's failure to hire shrift since 14 years before she was born!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Derrick's Jamaican Cuisine and Catering had the best reviews.
