I think part of the problem with J is that he learned at a young age that he could push around D (9 years older and much bigger than J) and D won't fight back. So he has no fear. I think when he starts to spend time around other kids and learns they'll fight back, he'll back off.
Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[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.
Ha, Laga! J just walks himself over to time out when he does something wrong because he knows he has done something wrong and that he is going to get in trouble.
Yeah - that's a big sign that time-out is NOT working.
Hey, here I am standing next to Hec on the Waits tour!
I should always be photographed next to you. It's good for my image.
ok. what does "so you were off on Monday, does that mean you work Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday to make up for it?" sound like to you?
I worked yesterday to get ECN geared up for fall - on request - not to make up for a national holiday.
ETA - for those playing along at home... not quite sitting so well over here with the new part-timeiness.
what does "so you were off on Monday, does that mean you work Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday to make up for it?" sound like to you?
that you're working extra hours each of the three days to make up the hours you lost on Monday but that the person who wrote the sentence doesn't have a great grasp of grammar.
to make up the hours you lost on Monday
this is only true if the workplace were open on Monday, right?
it's not the work I mind so much - it's the philosophy.
if I were hourly and had to take an extra day off I'd want to work extra hours so my paycheck wouldn't suffer. if I were salaried I'd want my federal holiday, dammit!
ha ha my roommate loves James Marsters. I tried so hard to get him to watch Torchwood but to no avail. I was in his netflix queue just now bumping The Next Avengers to the top because I knew he'd forget and I saw Torchwood season 2 in the saved section. Ha ha!
