Damn, Aimee. That dude is a major fuckcake™.

Don't know if anybody else has talked about it, but does anybody else find the commercial with the viking, the pilgrim, the polynesian dude, the roman guy, and Henry the VIII (and I *think* maybe one more...) are driving in the car and bust into Greensleeves as made of HI-larious as I do?

I do! "Greensleeves..." Cracks me up every. time.

Happy, happy, happy birthday, K-Bug! Eat cake! Be merry! Have fun!

My favorite commercial is the Sprint guy who starts getting excited and using the teen slang "I'm grabbing my cellie and kickin' it with my boys" and then his daughter says "dad!" and he calms down sheepishly.

Aimee, that is astoundingly insane, approaching evil. In your shoes, I would ask for lots of examples, take notes of what he says, time and date it, have him look it over (cast it as being sure I was really understanding what he wants) then initial and date it himself.

Aimee, that's just craziness.

Aimée, he's being a *huge* and extremely passive-aggressive dick. And, ugh, that "I need more and I need it now" without any specifics as to what he expects more of is giving me creepy my-ex-boss vibes. Since he's a passive-aggressive prick, he'll probably back down and make unspecific grumpy noises and do nothing if you stand up to him, but that's no kind of place to work. If you haven't already sent a letter of inquiry to that other company that wanted you so badly last year, DO IT.

And, yes, MM, that commercial is funnier than shit. Although I of course always thought the Pilgrim was a Puritan.

What a jerk. Eff him in the eye!

Happy b-day K-Bug!

On the roommates thing, yes indeed normal. GF and I do spend pretty much all of our evening time together (usually watching a movie) and go to bed at the same time, but we just mesh that way. It wouldn't bother me if she wanted to do something else occasionally, but I like it just fine as is, too. Going from a full to a queen-sized bed helped in the snuggle/space dept. Plenty of room.

My effin mouth still hurts. I took a Vicodin last night and it really did help. I'm starting today with Motrin and if I'm still in pain, I'll switch to the V.

Er...Sean brought that up. I offered to kill Aimee's boss.

I can see where the confusion comes from.

Oh, sorry! Please to commence with the boss-killing.

Sean, YES. So great. One of the few ads where you watch it and think, "God, those must have been some fun auditions!"

I did and they never responded. Oh look! A smoldering bridge.

He sends letters because he lost a big unemployment case last year due to his lack of documentation. And also because he's very non-confrontational - good or bad.

I'll admit, there *are* issues, but a lot of them have to do with him asking me to do shit that ISN'T MY JOB. Does he want me to work on the books or get bids for window cleaning? Does he want me to work on taxes with the accountants or does he want me to get utilities turned on and chase the companies around? Does he want me to chase all tenenats down like an asshole, or does he want me to do it in a way that will get him acutally paid?

The thing is, there was a pretty big fuck up on my part yesterday - I didn't notarize something correctly for his other company (the one he has made patently clear that I do NOT work for) which resulted in him losing a $46k job. I have a feeling that he wrote that letter about the piddling bullshit for my company since he can't write me up for something to do with the one I don't work for.

Either and all ways, it's bullshit and he and I are having a brutally honest chat today that I will discuss from the LETTER I WRITE BACK. And will place in my own damn file since I keep it.
