Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I stand corrected. He wasn't up reading last night. He was at a concert. This concert - [link] He's been talking about it all week, and even yesterday.
I also think (given the age group of the people you work with) that they may not understand the full implications of missing work. I think if you sit the person down and let them know what an inconvenience it is and that you appreciate their assistance, need it, and they also need to be there if at all possible when they promise to be, he might get it.
No, he knew. He knew that we have a crew of four, and that two went home very sick yesterday and would likely not be in again today, and he knew he was going to that concert. He knew we had an ambitious workload today, and he knows he is the strongest physically and the most technically capable. And he knew he was fucking us over by calling in. Like I said, one of his sick coworkers came in just because she didn't want it to be just me and one other.
Frankly, he's a spoiled brat and he doesn't give a shit. This is the one who sucks up to your face and talks shit behind your back, and by 'your' I mean 'my.'
Yup, pretty angry about it all.

Maria,
Go forth and look for a new job as soon as you able. You know you have a pit crew here who would love to help with resumes.

Smonster,
Write the fool up then. Fuck it.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Write the fool up then. Fuck it.
Seconded.

Thanks! It feels good. I'd be happier if I could make money doing this, and I only ever work for Drew because I enjoy it. Frankly, I'm almost there already, minus any income at all from writing, but that can change (especially if I write more, and try to sell it).
