It's pouring rain here, and my office is freezing. Bah. The only good thing about this unending rain is it means we'll have a nice long ski season, and I will be able to do some spring skiing in April.

But right now, I am cold. Bah.

Also, those puppies are ADORABLE.

Repairman is here! Crossing fingers that he'll actually fix it now.

Ugh, why so cold? It meant that the drizzle this afternoon came down as snow instead of rain, but STILL.

No one hangs in LJ land anymore? I know some folks switched to DW...is that the happening place to be? I think I have an account over there.

I wanna follow the popular kids...

And I wanna be able to breathe. Ugggg, too much tissue needed.

I think everybody decamped to fb or twitter or both, Suzi. DW's almost as dead as LJ.

So I'm going to get the chance to talk about my boss to her boss(es).

And, boy, do I have some heavy complaints against her.

Anyone have any pointers about how to do it without hanging myself (because I'm paranoid that the Big Bosses won't give a shit about my grievances), or sounding whiny and petulant resulting in not being taken seriously? Anyone have personal experience with this kind of situation?

Be very, very careful. I wouldn't say much of anything that you can't back up and that isn't against some rule or code or something.

Timelies all!

Looking at that list of pilots, I have to just shake my head. Most sound unappealing at best. The Ron Moore pilot with Jamie Bamber sounds like it could have promise, although part of me is thinking "Lord Darcy, the series!"

Julie,

I second what Jesse said.

You likely know this already, but if you going to take this step, make sure you know what you want out of all of this. I never go into formal complaint situations without some idea of what I want or what I want changed and what I will do if such things don't happen.
