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.

In nibbled-by-ducks news, after cleaning up pretty much everything gross my cat could expell from his body, I have no interest in eating the corn chowder I made for dinner. I literally may just eat cereal or something and save the soup for another day.
Also, is it really wrong that I want to see if I can bring him back to the vet on Friday instead of earlier, so I can also have a job interview that day?
Yay, Lee!
I had government assistance in the form of student loans (which I paid back). And my parents were teachers, so I basically grew up sucking on he government teat.
Christ and Triple Goddess ita ! I know you don't need this right now. ER - treat your patients before you work with the film crews.
I have good news!!! No bed bugs. The pest control guy sprayed outside and gave us a few small sticky traps. If we are still getting bites at the end of the week, he can come back and spray inside. Due to my asthma, he recommends me leaving for at least 4 hours and locking up the cats in one of the bathrooms. I hope we don't have to do that.
But, no bed bugs!!!!!!!!
Phew, Suzi.
Actually, I eat a surprisingly well-balanced and tasty meal while crapping out well-balanced craps, all while doing quality work for y'all, and you should give me more money.

Is there any way out of this bullshit cycle?
I am going with more "blah blah I'm fabulous" on my review this year, because that's apparently what they want, instead of things like "I said I would do this, and I did it, on time and under budget."

Yeah, I get to do even more stuff and work my way back up?
Well, I kind of meant on a more global scale, this way that performance reviews work. There's no way it's really sustainable, is it? If an employee keeps doing more and more, and expectations get higher and higher, you can't always meet them, and then you're just getting punished for doing a good job.
