re: mistakes at work.
I had a supervisor call me into a come-to-Jesus meeting with the owner, and she wanted me to make a pledge that my work on a particular phase would not have any errors in it. She was horrified when I said, "No, I will not make any such pledge. It's impossible to promise that." She looked at the owner, who said, "She's right, she can't do that. Asking something like that is something the Pointy-Haired Boss would do."
The owner loved Dilbert, and even though he was often an idiot it was nice to have backup, especially geeky backup.
That Hyperbole and a Half is the most true thing on the internet. Fear-proof exoskeleton. Yes.
Taking away the drill press is kind of rocking my world, Tep. I know I only have a flawed and mostly made up by me mental image of your home, but the drill press looms large in it and having it be gone is going to take some getting used to.
Oh, that Hyperbole and a Half was wonderful. Sad and painful, but wonderful. I will be passing that along.
Calli, words cannot express the rage I feel on your behalf. Gah.
What is Coming to Get Us
Oh, Indiana. What the hell is Momo? Do Connecticut and Massachusetts not exist on that map?
I'm
from
Missouri and have no idea what the hell 'Momo' is. Unless it's a flying lemur.
I've only lived in places where Vampires are coming to get me.
That's about right.
I'm from Missouri and have no idea what the hell 'Momo' is.
Me too. That's why I asked.
They wanted to let me know that a nurse would be calling me with advice on how to be less fat. My level of "bite me, Cigna" cannot be textually rendered.
Oh, fuck them so hard. I was grumpy enough at the person from our mail-order pharmacy company who called to talk to the husband about his medical condition and was urging him to ask his doctor about other medicines to be on.
Really, giant profiteering corporation? I am so sure that you have our best interests in mind, rather than getting him on more drugs so you can make more money.
That map scared me! Blair Witch! Not a good movie that kept me from sleeping for days. grrr brrrr
