No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

hip deep in pie

And Michael Bublé still needs to be buried in the bowels of BC Place. Or deep within one of the giant inflatable beavers.

Oh Barb, apparently NBC cut it off before it got worse. It got much worse. There was...shudder...Nickelback.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I wouldn't chalk it up to a pathology but rather General Douchebaggery

This. Which, frankly, isn't surprising.

Trust my rage

Thanks, P-C. is it wrong that I want to loom at her phone and see where Fast Eddie called from? (I have no idea why I care so much. I guess I don't really care, but I'm curious and want *the truth*.).

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

good times - got to start the workday by telling my boss I need to leave at 2:15 mon-thurs this week. and no, I can't come in any earlier, just will skip lunch. 5.5 hours/day, I will need to make up 6 hours.

So I should proabbly not hang around here much and just try to crank out as much work as possible. good luck.

Our wings are not tired.

{{msbelle}} I hope a solution presents itself.

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

I want to believe.

You can't handle the truth.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Question for parents and/or HR people: My coworker is on maternity leave, and wants to talk to the job about coming back 80% time, and also not going on a planned business trip in May (she would just be back from leave, and breastfeeding a 3 month old). Should she talk to her boss or HR first? HR will be more sympathetic, since she has kids and other family obligations, unlike our boss.
