I know it's CA law (and new york) to have places to pump that aren't the bathroom, but I'll tell you that schools do not have such available space, which is probably one of many reasons I stopped.
Bookcases are almost installed in the house. It required two trips to get them and I had an irksome restaurant run-in.
New glasses (3 pairs, including one set of shades) have arrived. While I love the frugality of Zenni (three of my 4 new pair cost a quarter what the 4th cost all because they were Zenni glasses) the frames aren't as nice. The other pair I picked up from the optometrist (can someone please explain the dif between an optometrist and an opthomalogist?) are Gucci and are lovely but wickedly expensive and I think, when they adjusted them, they may have bent the frames enough that the lens isn't sitting flush.
It shouldn't be seen as a sign of laziness or evasiveness, though.
No, it really shouldn't -- the amount of schedule flexibility is as much a part of the job as, say, the amount of travel expected. Everyone has those days of needing to stay home waiting for the plumber to show up, and it's reasonable to want to know if you'll be getting things done and calling in to meetings, or counting those against your vacation time.
Or single people with children, or with elderly family in or out of town, or special needs pets, people with medical conditions whether temporary or permanent.
Today, with the move most people were working from home and probably more productive than those of us who showed.
oh man I not only couldn't leave early but I just was yelled by my fucking rude ass co-worker for not intuiting that the developer who is helping us with this document needed more work to do.
On 5pm on a Friday!
I am spitting mad right now. Should I tattle on him to our boss (a few weeks ago I had a meeting about this guy with boss, about how rude he is).
I'm shaking angry.
I would tattle, but I'm like that.
Since it's been enough of an issue that you've met with your boss about it before, it needs to be mentioned.
Beating a dead mortgage discusson, example that fraud was involved: [link]
Agreed -- it's not tattling, it's documentation of a known issue.
the hard thing is that he's such a bad communicator I can't even relate the conversation accurately. So not what I want to deal with today AT ALL
In perhaps slightly brighter news, the guy who insulted me in class the other week got an incomplete in one class for his absences and will have to take it over again. I know he has Issues with a capital Ish (including a brother-in-law who committed suicide a month ago) so I'm not taking 100% Schadenfreude on this circumstance, but honestly his behavior has made it hard for anyone to sympathize too much.
