Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I have a hivemind word question. We are going to change my title at work, because I spend a part of my time dealing with clients and customers answering complaints and also writing stuff for out company's facebook and twitter feeds. My new title should have an element of liaision or something like that, while still somehow allowing for my HR functions. My suggestion was Communication Coordinator, but the execs felt it was too dull. The DH suggested Ombudsman, but that might be too technical. Any suggestions?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
Director of Internal and External Communication?
My subway was super delayed, and I can't believe they announced that it was because a person got hit by a train! I believe that happened, but I'm surprised the announcement was that explicit.
Man, I've probably told this story before, but I got so screwed up one afternoon trying to head home from MIT in an oncoming storm, lost my phone, etc., and there were crazy delays. I get home and discover that someone committed suicide at Davis and it was someone that I knew. Ugh.
I think the MBTA are trying to be better about communication because I think that's the only thing they can control?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, that's terrible. Ugh!

You'd never seen the dead parrot sketch????!!!!!!?
Pssst, Scrappy. She's younger than us. She was still in diapers when that sketch happened.

No. See, titles are a part of your ongoing career. So if you left this job and that was on your resume it wouldn't have much pull. This is why it was important for me to move form HR Admin to HR Analyst.
but the execs felt it was too dull. The DH suggested Ombudsman, but that might be too technical. Any suggestions?
Not Ombudsman either. That's a very specific role, which mostly has to do with being the liaison with the general public.
What's your current title? Does it have Manager or Director in it?

Please -- we have the internet now. My coworker who practically fell on the floor laughing just thinking about it is well younger than me.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I caught Owen looking up Paul Lind on IMDB. He asked me what I liked best about Bewitched. WTF? How is he finding out about this shit?

Because books.
Samantha is the correct answer to that question, Owen! Unless it's Endora.
He might have seen it on TVLand lately.
