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*.).
Wait. People? She eats people? 'To Serve Man.' It's 'To Serve Man' all over again.

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.

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If HR is likely to be more sympathetic & flexible, I'd talk to them first and get a clear written plan she can present to the boss. (Saying something like "I made sure to run this by HR first to make sure it was in line with our company leave policy" - blah blah kissbuttcakes.)

ION, today is the first day of my new/old job! My department was dismantled and sold for parts on Friday so I'm sitting here with my shiny new title at my old desk doing JACK SHIT because nobody in sales was ever trained on how to contact ops from the new company. I look forward to a full day of playing Freecell and updating Twitter with scintillating descriptions of how bored I am.
