Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
brenda, you've used it before, right? I either learned about TR here or on Twitter.
meara, you will love it!
I love that I put in a max amount that I'd be willing to spend for the task to be done, but that amount isn't shown to bidders. I put in a max of $60 for the paints task and someone did it for $25. The whole process is SO easy. And the taskrabbits are screened, etc, so I feel fine and safe using it. Certainly a lot safer than using Craiglist.
I wish Taskrabbit was here, too. There's a small business called "The Occasional Wife," but I haven't looked into whether they contract stuff out, or hire people, or only take what they can do.
OMG, the LA unemployment claim phone system is a nightmare. I went through at nine least levels of phone menus with no human, and if you hit "0" it just repeats the menu. So now I'm trying to get it straightened out from the NC side, where I was on hold for about 15 minutes but got a person. Death is not an option, bureaucratic style.
Yikes, Vonnie! Stay safe.
Vonnie, stay safe!!!
OK. Lecture cancelled, which was predictable. The police at the VA wouldn't let the lecturer leave the building to come down here.
Two dead, including the gunman, and seven injured. The injured are all being triaged through our ER. God, that was way too close for comfort.
Relief for Vonnie. Stay calm! Maybe pamper yourself a little tonight.

Nope. But I'm giving it a shot! I want both my couches hauled out so that I can rearrange and replace them with things more suited for the space I have. It's been a royal pain figuring out how to do that.
Jesus, Vonnie, that's a drama and a half for a workday. Nobody needs that. Glad you're on the other end of it safely.
I'm trying to work out how to handle management. How to give the CIO more information than she asked for, because she asked the wrong question, and I wanted to forestall the next one? How to get the manager to get the boss to pull the trigger on some stuff, so I can go ahead on it without seeming like I'm nagging? It's a delicate balance. I don't know if I'm doing it right.
Oh Vonnie, how scary! So glad you were safe.
