I got within 2km of a location on my best round. [link]
I hope you don't think that I just come over for the spells and everything. I mean, I really like just talking and hanging out with you and stuff.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It tells you the other person's guess??? That's evil. My sister will fuck me up at this--she's been to every country I've had to guess so far except Poland. MAYBE.
msbelle, I bristle on your behalf at bosses who seem to be reacting rather than communicating. Ask him for keys? I mean, to say "in order to meet your expectations, X, Y, and Z need to happen first." Which sucks if he meets your bluff, but if ensuring safety for his employees is an issue, let him try and explain it to your face.

Dammit, I thought I was doing really well, but I still lost...fucking Norway, man. I should have thought that out better.

One of the numerous things that has sucked this week was getting a new computer I need to re-tailor from scratch.
I sent out a handful of emails with the signature of "First Name Last Name, Sr. Business Systems Analyst". Like, literally that text.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I plan on telling him almost precisely that, ita. The thing is, he told me he lets people go early if there is nothing to do on a day.....but....I also know he got burned by the previous employee coming in late and leaving early. Still, if he wants me to stay there when I have no work to do since I do not know how to do anything yet, then he at least needs to get me keys.

I find the semantic difference between "I can't do that because..." and "You must do this so I can..." really annoying--if you don't have a reason to distrust the person who's saying why they can't, just parse the information. But handing people deliverables is sometimes just fucking faster.
45 more minutes to go. At least the people who bought co-worker birthday cake went for the good stuff. The bottom layer has been soaking in something not oversweet.
