Happy Birthday, Tom!
I'm annoyed: I have a mandatory 9AM staff meeting at the other offices, several miles away. And then I have another meeting there at 2:30PM. Every time I go there it's a major hassle and I usually end up waiting outside for the shuttle for 45 minutes or so.
Today, I think I am going to drive, even if I have to pay for parking at some point, it's just not worth the hassle factor. Cannot wait until they move the rest of the division to my building.
It's official, my new overlords are micromanagers. We're supposed to now submit a weekly report of our planned objectives and report on how we accomplished them. Which is fine, except that this is going to the director that's three levels removed from me. The director also sent an email saying that if we're absent, we're supposed to go back and mark it in calendars which she has access to...which has not been our practice. I'm sure it will be fine, but it chafes.

And this will allow her to go back in time to notify her past self and re-plan her day's objectives accordingly?
Happy Birthday Man with the Awesome Smile!

Yesterday I went back to the office after being out for 3 days last week, and discovered that in prep for a bigwig visit, my manager had gone in and neatened up my office and cleaned one of the counter tops which had gotten some scuffs that nothing seemed to get off, except for this stuff she found which did get them off. Unfortunately the stuff she found is stuff I'm allergic to.

Right??
All these added layers of crap are just making me feel that I need to get out of here. I am, however, terrible at planning/exit strategies. Which is why I have somehow made a profession out of something I thought was going to be temporary. I need some kind of life coach.
Happy Birthday, Tom!
It is snowing here...we got a few inches overnight and it is still coming down. Third day of APRIL people. We got NO snow in March. WTF?
Ugh, Suzi. That's not very nice.
Baking types: If a recipe calls for a half cup of butter and a half cup of shortening, can I just use all butter instead?
Happy birthday, Tom!
I have to fill in calendars that indicate whether I was in or not. I never gave much thought to it. They keep attendance numbers, and the source must be recorded somewhere, so why not there?
I am trying to shop for guava jam, since I've stretched out what I brought home from home as long as I can. It's amazing how much prices vary, and how unclear it is if everyone means the same thing by guava jam as we do. V. confusing. I will have to go by brand, and apparently the internet has never heard of the brand I bought when I was last there.
