Wash ,'Ariel'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
In other news, my new medication seems to be doing the trick with keeping my heart beating correctly so I'm feeling good about that.
That's good to hear, Gud.
The Amazon sale is tempting me to buy the SG-1 complete series boxed set. Tell me why I shouldn't.
I kind of want to try the glo pillow.
Ooh, that's a tough one, Susan. I mean, not so much worry about protecting your job (I doubt anything you say will make them think "You know, we REALLY don't need an administrator..." or even "Wow, that Susan is really the problem") but you also don't want it to inadvertently come back to you and sound really bad...

Yeah, that's the concern. There are only 5 of us on the leadership team, so it's not like it's difficult to figure out where an opinion is coming from. OTOH, I do have lots of opinions on the interpersonal dynamics I've been observing the past few months, and that's what the consultant is for, to help us sort all this out...
ION, I have officially canceled my Saturday commitments. DH is taking AB to the brunch, and I'll just try the next meeting of the writers group.
When someone was let go at my last job - and she sued, I was pretty honest. Careful - not to place all the blame in one area - but honest. As in I felt the administration had created a problem by incompletely addressing an issue,however the employee did not address the issue and seemed to very unhappy with all aspects of work. Turns out- everyone said pretty much the same thing -and management/ administration actually changed for the better. not perfect but things went from difficult to tolerable.
Aurelia, you don't need the SG-1 series box set if you have Netflix.
Kristen Schaal, from Flight of the Conchords, got a gig as a commentator on The Daily Show.
oh ita, that sounds like a bad day.
I feel like I should be doing more, but I have no desire to do it.

I saw her last night. I love her on Flight, but I'm not sure she has the right persona to be a fake commentator.
Yeah, I was ready to love her when I saw her sitting there, but I'm not sure the piece really worked.

That is my prevailing emotion right now, especially when it comes to cleaning and laundry.
Susan, that is a difficult position.
Makes me wonder (and makes me think back to JZ among others)--management knows we lie, right? I'm not talking big bucks embezzlement, or anything. Just little white lies to tidy everything over. I mean, the companies lie to us, but it seems that managerial expectation of blunt honesty doesn't fall totally in line with where I'd give it.
Okay, that wasn't clear.
Five year plans and "what's your biggest flaw?"--they know that we're going to lie here, right? And that we can't be honest about organisational flaws they way they seem to be asking because we have to protect us--because someone has to.
