Quick, someone give me some bullshit corporatespeak to use in my self-appraisal. What's a businessy way to say "My lack of effort this year seems to have gone largely unnoticed by my superiors, therefore I must be pretty awesome!"?
Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?
Buffy ,'Never Leave Me'
Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Jessica: "I have fulfilled the expectations of my superiors and therefore have been successful in providing the blah blah blah as needed by senior management."
Which is a mixed message with a little bit of parsing.

Always Anti-fascist!
"team player" "highly collaborative" "facillitates others' success" IEPs aren't that different, right?

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

I am less googleable than I used to be. The earliest link that's mine is a grant award press release from 2008. And that foundation is done granting me now. So that'll fade. And then there's a band photo, but that is also buried in the results now.

Lots of famous people have day jobs, unfortunately. You have to be more specific in your wishlist.
I would like to be supported in my chosen lifestyle by being a writer and gothy icon. Not a technical editor. There, specific!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
There's a actually quite a few me's out there, which is weird. One was a beauty queen in New Mexico, and the other is a geologist somewhere on the East Coast.
ETA: Huh. And an Associate Pastor. Odd.

Ginger LastName is only me. As far as I know, there have only been two other Virginia LastNames, my mother and some woman who lived in the midwest.

Much better. Although they tell aspiring actors not to give up their day jobs, I do not envy the workload that someone like Colin takes on, even with the length of his breaks and the pay and the high profile. There's only so much onslaught of demand I can take.
