"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Try a nice wine. I hear there are some good pairings with feelings.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

le n - I think he likes having a scared workforce is all I can think.

I am updating my resume tomorrow and sending out networking emails on linked-in. There are people at the company that are wonderful, but my big boss is the VP over the largest # of staff and he's an ass. I am going to try to get ahead of anything bad and find something better for me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Three-buck chuck is where I'm at!

Also, yeah, there's no way Scandal could maintain this pitch for multiple years. Edit: Without being super-plus ridiculous, I mean. Even Congressional shenanigans would pale. Maybe the Pentagon?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I like the jobs just about every person is doing (well, bar Huck), but everything is so heightened that sustaining or exceeding it seems complex.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I am spending a half an hour on the phone, getting escalated twice, trying to find out why the bank has posted a five dollar posting error correction. I mean hey, free five dollars, but if it's coming from one of the donations, I need to be able to acknowledge that correctly. Seriously, though, five bucks!

Totally. And it feels like there are plenty of developments without wrapping things up too fast. Maybe they needed more MOTW as they went? The overarching stuff definitely could have taken years to come to a head, but now I want it (at least more or less) sorted this season.

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

Current season whitefont please.

I think he likes having a scared workforce is all I can think.

Which is not the smartest move unless you are offering either salary or benefits so good as to make it worth it or if there are no other options for your employees. This guy doesn't sound like either are true. It's just a power thing.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Things I've actually said at work today:

"We don't send ambulances for dogs, but I can find you a number for an emergency animal hospital in the area..."

"How old are you? 148? ....are you feeling confused?"

"unless it devolved into fisticuffs it was a civil issue and you don't need to make a police report."

"anyone remember something about a flash mob stealing loads of pants?"
