Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

C'mon, JZ, I'm sure you're capable of looking at porn. Don't underestimate yourself!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm sorry, megan. And surprised, frankly.

I sort of want to email her and ask her if she would like to quit.

I think I like that, except that it might light a fire under her and get her just motivated to show up but not work any harder.

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

megan, I'm sorry to hear that.

Sophia, fire her ass. Sometimes you shouldn't be avoidant.

JZ, apply. Also, avoid porn at work.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Forgot to add, that BITES, megan. What the hell was that giant push for you and that job for the last couple of months (which, IIRC, started from their end) if that's the end of it?

I snarl and growl at their general lameitude.

And, randomly, there's a managing editor position that just posted today at the VA on Clement Street. Just in case you're pissed off enough at the lot of them to consider flouncing off to somewhere else.

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

Rumors around my workplace (other than the ones I already know about) are that people will be quitting in the next few weeks due to anger over the low bonuses.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

ugh, megan

I am shocked to learn that not only did I sleep through an earthquake this morning, so did my kids. Shocking!

Oh Kat, thank you! I have emailed you my wants. I may go back and add a good blue, but that's because I am clearly CRAZY.

I'm sorry, megan - I hope that some other opportunity presents itself quickly so you can get out from that toxic environment.

msbelle, are those people aware of the unemployment rate?

Also, avoid porn at work.

I really can't, although this week has been light on the porn so far. I think it's well established that I'm no prude, but I had to look at waaay too many naked people last week.
