The thing I do not understand is why people are so incompetent!
Two answers: 1) stupidity; 2) poor training.
That's my guess anyway.
Yeah. He's my hero.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Add in laziness and/or lack of caring.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
The other thing is that until I interact with other people, I think I am totally incompetent. Then I see what they are doing!

Punishingly Intricate
I've been remarkably lucky with bosses, I think. At least the ones I report to directly.
Just don't start lying to people (above or below you in the chain) to (try to) make yourself look better.
I really do not like lying so that shouldn't be a problem.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have tried Botox, tommy. It worked, in that it took away many of the facial expressions I used to teach krav, but I don't know that it clearly removed pain.
I think tessera from way back when had it done and it worked for her. Not suire if she's still on it.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Oh, yeah.

Maybe that is what Yeats meant by "The best lack all ambition and the worst are full of a passionate intensity"

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

Well, that explains why politics in the US sucks....

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
My mother had botox for nerve damage in her shoulder that she sustained during a car accident, but ultimately the only thing that entirely removed the pain was surgery. And a rotator cuff injury is about 1000x simpler to diagnose & treat than migraine.

Heh, I never thought of that line as a slacker manifesto.
