Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Jesse, where do you find that data on median incomes?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Some of it was in the wikipedia article on NYC, some in the NYTimes real estate section -- that's where I found it by zip code. (But I got there by googling "[neighborhood] median income")

HR just came around and handed everyone a piece of paper with the new door codes on it. Seriously?? On so many levels. (a) Paper copies for everyone? (b) We didn't do this when we had layoffs in the spring? (c) This is what you were doing instead of [other seemingly more urgent HR tasks]??

HR just came around and handed everyone a piece of paper with the new door codes on it.

When the door codes changed at my old job, it usually meant someone was fired in a escorted out the door kind of way.

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

re: firemen in bed

Yes, they can be lots of fun, but be prepared for flashbacks when they think the bedroom is on fire and they're yanking you out of bed in preparation to throwing you out the bedroom window to save you.

Took a couple of years for him to stop doing that.

For a single person, you probably want the per capita income, not the household income.

megan, it sounds like you might want to look at Glassdoor.com.

Always Anti-fascist!

Tommy Gavin on Rescue Me has dreams like that. But he's a. fictional and 2. not Okay(but sometimes he can make a nervous breakdown seem very hot) I never knew if I should believe in that or not.

That hasn't really seemed to be the case here in the past, and apparently is not the case today.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

That used to be the case in my office when someone was fired, as opposed to leaving on their own accord. Now we have key cards, and HR just takes them back.
