[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.

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

Seems my HR problem here at old job has run it's course. The policy is they do not reimburse for worked holidays. So boss just came up to me and said "why don't you not come in next Wednesday and Thursday. At least give you half of them". My last day is a week from today. Um. OK. Don't know how much of the 'wrap things up' will get done, but ok. Ya, I will miss [boss] when I leave.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am wearing a sassy skirt and boots. It could work.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Bottom line, as long as the work gets done on time, no one really cares.
Same here. We try to keep regular hours so we know when people are available, but no one's punching in and out.
Kristin, I hope the interview goes well!
In a related note, we interviewed a candidate today, and I noticed from her CV that she's at the same company as a former co-worker of mine, so I messaged her and asked if she knew said candidate since we were interviewing her.
Oh, she said, that's why she's "working from home" today.
Ooooops. Luckily, she's an admin and not, like, her boss or something.

The status is NOT quo.
Thanks, all! I'm torn between being excited and OMGWTFPOLARBEAR.

Our wings are not tired.
Yeah, P-C, I don't recommend doing that again in the future.

Yeeeeeah, I learned my lesson.
I was wondering how you go about interviewing for jobs when you're still employed. Very sneakily, it seems.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
A good question for employed people is "where does your boss think you are right now?"
I got asked that once, very casually, and I said "He doesn't know, I took the day off" When I talked the the hiring manager later, she told me that the guy asked everyone that and if they said that they had lied at all, they were out of the running.

I was wondering how you go about interviewing for jobs when you're still employed. Very sneakily, it seems.For me, it was very nerve wracking and stressful. I guess it depends if you like your current job or not. If you are looking to escape, I imagine it's a lot easier.
