Shrift, you have my sincerest sympathies! And my fervent wish that this turns out to be one of the best things that could have happened, that is when you get your next job that turns out to be really spiffy and within taunting distance of the old job.

The fun part of my workplace news - it's not my responsibility! Someone yanked it away from me, didn't allow me any access to it ... so I can say, with a completely clear conscience (and total honesty), "it's not my job". (And, it turns out, the person who was supposed to be backing it up in Access? didn't ... not for several years.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Yo! I'm dating a Canuck, that should give me a pass.
Totally! Happy Canada Day in exile!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Seriously -- when my friend's publishing company got bought by the Germans, they got a lot more time off!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I work for a Canadian company, and I don't get Canada Day off!

not your mom's socks.
In my workplace news ... turns out our web host has, somehow, lost an entire database. With no back-up. No explanation, just "it's gone".
WTF, today???!!! Seriously?

yes, seriously. Seemingly the guy who was responsible for it was fired ... so this may have been malice or incompetence. Whatever the cause, I am just INFINITELY relieved that I can't be held responsible for it ('cause if I were? I'd be keying in the stuff we have paper records for ... the kind of job security I really don't want).

wow - that is gonna suck for someone, or several someones.
For those keeping score, I know have approval on both sets of minutes and can distribute them as well as enter tasks assigned in them into the job tracking thingy.
