Oh, my god, my fucking employer.
Me: Where is the actual written agreement that I'll keep working until [date]?
Job: Any second now!
Me: Hello?
Job: Here it is! It says you'll keep working until we hire your replacement!
Me: Uh, I'm supposed to work until [date] and the whole fucking point is that I will train my replacement?
Job: Okay, we'll say that you'll keep working until your replacement has been "sufficiently trained"?
Me: ORLY? And who will be making that judgment call?
I just don't understand the point of agreeing that I will work until mid-August, but then weaseling as much as possible to avoid actually committing to that.
I'm having lunch with Jen K. today (Yay!)
I've been looking out the window and thinking, "Hmmm, we really ought to take advantage of this day. I wonder where we could eat al fresco. Maybe just get some great takeaway and go to the park?"
And she just msged me saying, "Let's have a picnic!"
So it shall be.
Thanks. I could hear anytime now.
Fingers crossed, Gud. I hate waiting for stuff like that.
Good luck, Gud!
Not saying you should, but I think that is where the savings is to make it on $15,000 a year
My BFF lives on much less. Her car is paid for, and she lives in a house her mother owns so she doesn't have rent/mortgage (but she pays in other ways, being basically a slave to her mother's whims at this point), and her kid's medical expenses are covered under TennCare. Even so, I don't know how the hell she does it.
shaved my legs
Reading this I remembered a dream last night in which I pulled up my skirt to show someone how I had no hair on my legs even though I haven't shaved in years! And this is in fact true, and frankly curious, because I used to have a normal amount of hair on my legs. And my arms. There's no hair at all on my arms anymore, and like five hairs on my legs. Why is that? Not that I mind.
put her water bottle on the counter like I've told her
blah blah blah water bottle blah blah blah
Lots of ~ma of an indeterminate nature, Gud!
Yay, picnic, Hec! I ate lunch outside, myself, and it was very present, though couple of bugs seem to have hitched a ride inside on my blazer...
My housing expenses are way too high and my house is too big for me but I couldn't sell without taking a big loss so I don't see a way to resolve that responsibly. I think I'm just stuck and will put my energy into making my backyard an oasis of calm pleasantness to "justify" as much as I can.
Burrell, what would happen if she was sent to school with no water bottle for a week?
I ated too much food. It was free food though, so there's that.
