I KNOW!
Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

Yes, I do have nothing to say. Why must school start so early?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
...I'm betting it was better than the tasteless, textureless sugar-free chocolate icecream that's the ONLY icecream I've had since December.
I'm betting that the reason you haven't got good low-carb ice cream is because of where you are. At least here in the States, some of the best low-carb and/or no-sugar-added ice creams are as good or better than the regular versions of crap brand ones.
Aims, here's hoping one of those resumes brings you a wonderful job with decent pay and a decent boss, or a decent job with wonderful pay and a decent boss, or a decent job with wonderful pay and a wonderful boss. Of course, at this point, half-decent on all of those points might be an improvement.

Awesome.
Should her work satisfaction index drop below a certain point, she will receive a low-amperage high-voltage shock to her central nervous system.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Got another email memo from Boss - this one to everyone who works for him - the there is to be NO internet useage between 8:05a and 5:00p. If we violate this, we will be terminated. In order to enforce this, as of May 1, they will be installing spy-software on all of our computers to record keystrokes and take screen shots of the webpages we get on.
HI AIMEE'S BOSS! YOU'RE A GIANT FUCKHEAD!

Oh, certainly - I didn't mean to imply otherwise. It is almost impossible to buy sugarfree things here. Almost. Hell, Thais like to throw sugar into savoury stuff any chance they get. Recently the range of sugar-free soft beverages available in town has expanded beyond Diet Coke/Pepsi Max to now include Sprite Zero - oh, the excitement! Happily I mostly drink soda water anyway, but you get the idea? Still, there's a chocolatier in town that does sugar-free chocolate in milk, white and dark, and there's also one place that does a few flavours of sugar-free icecream/sorbet. And they're better than nothing - but they're not all that. I know in the states you can get low carb alternatives to all kinds of stuff, you jammy buggers. Here - well, mostly I'm going to have to make my own. (Thus the stab of icecream-lust!)
or a follow-up, Aims' boss will have her tagged with RFID and a GPS transponder. Later there will come an implanted shock device connected to a mood monitor. Should her work satisfaction index drop below a certain point, she will receive a low-amperage high-voltage shock to her central nervous system.
See, really, if you wanted to increase someone's work satisfaction you'd be better off implanting the device in a Highly Personal location. You could remotely buzz them into a better mood in no time!

So I screwed my courage to the sticking post and called up the local recycling people to ask them to come and speak to my students (per the "We love to give presentations! Totally! Call us!"), and the woman got testy with me. I told her what time the class was, but said anytime during the day was fine, and that I didn't have a particular date in mind, and she said, "Well, I really need you to give me an idea of what you're looking for..." Look, lady, I've never scheduled an outside speaker before, I don't know anything about your schedule, and ours is almost totally open!
I do understand that she expected less wishy-washiness, but there you go. I am w-w. I don't know what I'm doing! Cut me some slack!
Mind you, this being the place it is, I was actually talking to the head of recycling, rather than a public-relations person or peon of some sort. I can understand her being a little impatient. Just, I hate calling people!
