I want to "Like" Jilli's post.
Me too.
Now I want chocolate.
But what if it had?
I think being careful is usually the right call with sick.
Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Yes. Someone bring me chocolate and a pot of tea? (Yes, I'm working from home and could get up and fetch my own, but I'm pinned under two laptops and an email thread.)

Ugh. Am at work place where people are usually nice, but after the third time in three visits that I asked them to do something and they didn't do it...they wrote "please provide documentation from your superior that this is needed". My response is something like "fuck you". Because (a) I am not asking anything unusual or difficult (if it were, sometimes I would gladly provide evidence and say "I know this is weird/hard but..") and (b) "from your superior"?!? Seriously?!? How about I ask to see YOUR superior and point out its been three months and you haven't fucking done this?

I think that sounds like an excellent plan.

Oh man, I just watched last night's HIMYM. It was soooo painfully Canadian. And I loved it.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm sorry about your co-worker, Suzi.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have a co-worker who won't do anything I suggest if she knows it was my idea. I have to ask other people to suggest stuff to her, and she's the primary developer on my project. It's kinda tiresome.
We both report to the same manager, and I told our manager that she professed a reluctance for my suggestions because she does not want to participate in "rogue development."
I....I don't even know. I did not smack her down when she pulled her "...and if you were a developer you'd know that." but she's perfectly willing to sound nuts in order to push back.
