You know what they say about payback? Well I'm the bitch.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I know we covered this a couple weeks ago but I've forgotten. What do you say to someone who is quitting and you haven't enjoyed working with them, you're not going to miss them and you're not sorry to see them go?

The theatre equivalent of that call is when someone on stage, usually an actor, asks at some point in tech, when something is clearly wrong, like the stage being dark in the middle of a scene, or a sound cue playing way too loud, or a train playing in the middle of the ocean, "Is that's the way this is going to be?" It's very often a passive aggressive way of saying this is a mistake. About 99.99% of the time we know it's a mistake. I pretty much have one answer to this question now. I state it very loudly and clearly from the house and don't hesitate. My answer is, "Yes."

What do you say to someone who is quitting and you haven't enjoyed working with them, you're not going to miss them and you're not sorry to see them go?

"Good Riddance"? Oh, wait, that's inside voice.

"Your leaving is really going to change things around here!"

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

What do you say to someone who is quitting and you haven't enjoyed working with them, you're not going to miss them and you're not sorry to see them go?

"You still here? I thought you were dead."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"You still here? I thought you were dead."

"You're not a zombie, are you?"

yes!

"Things just won't be the same without you."

perfect. I've been kind of ignoring the fact that he put his notice in because I couldn't think of anything nice to say.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Best of luck. Take care of yourself.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

someone on stage, usually an actor, asks at some point in tech, when something is clearly wrong, like the stage being dark in the middle of a scene, or a sound cue playing way too loud, or a train playing in the middle of the ocean, "Is that's the way this is going to be?"

Especially during a cue-to-cue or something, when you're already in the middle of fixing it.
