The last song I listened to was, I ashamed to admit, by One Direction.
I have no excuse for this.
Tumblr being down makes me sad.
Bunnies frighten me.

Oh, and the HR person put every staff and faculty member's email address in the To: line.

I would like a universal rule, anytime you do an organization-wide email and put all members in the to: line, you are banned from email for 7 days.

This seems perfectly reasonable to me.

He was warned that they would lowball him, but this is rather extreme.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ouch, Dana.
We (faculty and staff) were just sent an email from HR with the subject line "Sexual Harassment time."
That's to the tune of "Business Time" from Flight of the Conchords, right?

Now tagless for your comfort.
Random question of the day: What's the last random act of kindness you participated in? (either as the doer or the receiver)
I've spent the last two days trying to help a friend and her family move out of their house. They've been in foreclosure for months now--the house finally sold and they have three days to vacate. The inside looks like a scene from Hoarders. I had been inside and knew the family lived a cluttered, messy life inside but I am still in shock about what I've found. PILES of trash in the floors. I was cleaning out her youngest daughter's bedroom. This little girl isn't three yet and there was a MOLDY LOAF OF BREAD IN A BAG under piles of garbage mixed in with dirty clothes and used pull ups ON THE FLOOR!
I'm sort of sick about it.

Yikes. Did they ask for a salary history? Is there any room to negotiate?
