'Never Leave Me'
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.
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.
Oh crud, msbelle.
bosses who seem to be reacting rather than communicating
yeah
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 blew it on the last location, but I still won. [link]
I have been to the Post Office and signed all my refi closing papers (not at the post office, that s two different accomplishments), it's officially the weekend.
One of my top scores: [link]
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.
We had birthday cupcakes at our staff meeting this afternoon, made with champagne and they were good, not too sweet. I might have to look into that recipe.
