It should be noted, that two previous cops had let the couple go by, so it's not all cops who are stupid. Just one out of three, evidently.
Buffy: Where are the burgers? Riley: Yeah man, I'm starving. Cow me. Xander: I'd love to make with the moo but the fire's not cooperating.

Jesus christ that meeting did not go well.
And the thing is, I expect it will continue to be unpleasant because there is very little chance of us meeting his expectations. Given all the shit that's been piled on us this year? 90% of the problems are due to Too Much Shit.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
I had made an eye-doctor appointment for the 16th back before Thanksgiving, and we just got an invite this week for the department holiday party that same day starting at exactly the same time as my appointment.
Yay for me, too!

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
ugh sarameg, sorry about the rough meeting. It's a shame that it's so easy for the ones demanding too much shit to not see what they are doing.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Yay, pink!
I second or third the "too tired to scream" notion. And am tickled at the tickledness re: Chu. Aww!

I think they even get that there's too much because they're always on us about what resources we need. Problem is? We needed and asked for those resources long ago and were turned down. Even if we got them now, it is too late to be helpful in the near term where we need it. So we are asking again, but it doesn't help us NOW.
I'm going to ask the developers to put in a stressed-out Scotty-from-StarTrek soundbit in the next software delivery.
