This pug can't run. And he sings like a leprechaun. Adorable.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Okay, who has worked phone support before and can confirm for me that sometimes, if things aren't going well, you "accidentally" disconnect people.
I won't judge, I swear.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Argh, my coworker kept me yacking so I missed the good shuttle. Bah.
Also, another coworker came over with a question for us about a problem he was having. My actual response? "Google that shit." I realize he is older, but come ON. That is the first answer to any computer issue! GOOGLE THAT SHIT.

Man, a co-worker just pissed me off. He's looking for the developer that sits in the cube next to me. He comes, she's not there, he starts muttering. Her (and my) manager pipes up and says "Well, maybe she's taking lunch?" And co-worker replies with, in the pettiest snottiest tone "Well, she's been doing that for two and a half hours!"
Seriously? Do you not want anyone on your side ever again?
He's also the sort of guy who deliberately and pointed reads every word he can see on your screen, and will even flip idly through windows if you let him use your keyboard.
Who wants that person around?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Okay, who has worked phone support before and can confirm for me that sometimes, if things aren't going well, you "accidentally" disconnect people.
Of course.
Who wants that person around?
I don't even want that person on my planet.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
CIO said in the meeting today that her direct reports keep a pair of sneakers in their offices, because she has her 1 on 1s walking around the block--she did 5 miles of meetings yesterday.
Oh, man, I would so benefit from that. My boss only goes so far as to try to have meetings standing up. I actually have a cousin's husband who has running eetings.
He's also the sort of guy who deliberately and pointed reads every word he can see on your screen, and will even flip idly through windows if you let him use your keyboard.
And this is why I HATE having my back to my cubicle doorway.
