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

Dear You and You and You and You:
Please confer with one another. Please confer with your superiors. Please do not send me an email with your "idea for a great new thing" and then follow it up two days later with MY boss' boss asking why I am taking so long about it. Please understand that ecommerce and data collection take some time when trying to unify seven (7) competing databases and that yes, although you can "do something like this on Amazon.com," please to note the size of our staff vs. that of, say, Amazon.
Also, in plain English (since you say I geek too much): You. No. Listen. Website. Go. BOOM.
Sincerely yours, Bitchy chick with the passcodes to the server.

This just compounds my general irritation with most news covering the falling of every flake like it's a national disaster.
The news is just trying to help Canadians who might not be expecting a snowstorm during the winter.

Sox, there is no need to apologize for ranting in Natter. That's like apologizing for snow in Canada.

Burritos can fix anything.
Nothing wrong with a good rant Sox.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
You okay, Dana?
Oh, yeah, I'm just snippy. I sent a snippy (though polite) e-mail to the bane of my existence, who had deleted the most current version of a document and replaced it with one that was out-of-date, formatted incorrectly, and not what we had agreed on.
He sent me a snippy e-mail back about how my changes had messed up the whole document, and making it clear that he considered me a trained monkey who knows how to use Word.
My coworkers and I are plotting revenge against him, including writing his name on the whiteboard, with the comment "OMGWTFBBQ."
I enjoy my coworkers.

Which is also how I am feeling as the semester is over so all the faculty are dredging up the silly and elaborate questions they have been sitting on for months, and asking them. Also, my boss is procrastinating, which means she is digging out her desk and handing off her projects to me. Sigh.
