One of my people is complaining about teaching a few classes (not courses, individual classes - 6 at most, spread throughout the semester) because "we never had to do that before." And she thinks she should be paid extra. I pointed out that these classes appear in her job description so there will be no extra money. She complains about having to do this extra work until I finally point out that since these have been in her job description for 5+ years, maybe she should think of it as having been paid to do nothing for those years.

Now she's upset, but I'm no longer frustrated about not getting the point across.

I have found that applying pressure to the meaty area between my thumb and forefinger will alleviate a headache long enough for me to find some aspirin. Or maybe it's that the new pain in my hand distracts me from my headache.

It sounds like the customer we just had who wants my company to pay him for the work he'll need to do to use the program in a way that works instead of the way he was using the program, which wasn't working. "Your program is flawed! Compensate me!" "I showed you the process that gives you the result you want, the program is not flawed." "I don't want to do it that way!" "Tell the developers to put it in a future version, here's the link." "I shouldn't have to do that! Research this and get back to me on how to do it right!"

Yeah, I'll tell my supervisors that I can't help the other people in queue because you want specialty work done by a technician you got to instant message with for free.

I want a flip top head I can scoop my brain out of when I get a headache.

Keep O away or your brainz might get flushed!

I want a flip top head so I can remove the gronk from my brain with a fine-toothed comb.

I want a flip top head so I have an excuse not to grade my papers.

To be truly useful, I think the flip top head needs to come with a second brain so I can swap mine out and recharge it.

GC, I have heard that the pottasium in a banana can help to relieve headaches and I second the glass of water suggestion.

wrod. this is why I get headaches. I want and need to write a commentary for the Disability Nation blog today, but as it gets closer, I'm losing my nerve. How does KO do that all the time?
