[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

p-c, I hate doing timesheets too. I get paid salary based on hourly, and comp time instead of OT, so, it's always going to be 40, since comp time is generally not approved. After 13 years of salary and not time card, it wasn't part of my routine. I downloaded the free version of HoursTracker app (which is available for Android), and within a couple days, I paid the few bucks for the paid version (no ads). You create accounts, and log in times for each account/project. And on the iPhone, it has a badge showing you clocked in on a project. Which is handy at the end of the day, when you check your emails, or start your music, you can see "oh crap, gotta time out". And now that I'm doing book-on-tape for the drive, I clock in as I stop the book, and clock out as I restart it for the ride home. Check out hourstrackerapp.com

Our wings are not tired

Yeah, as a business owner who has to deal with payroll, I can say it's a real thorn in my side when people don't submit time cards.

I have a very simple way of seeing it. My employees expect their checks or direct deposit to arrive on time each week, therefore I expect them to submit their hours on time.

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

Ack! Tagline request! (See how I'm slow about things right in front of me??) Yes, totally, Shir. It's pretty much always a "go ahead and tag."

Huh. This might explain it. Last few weeks, been working on the New Swan Theater (our "portable" 15 ton outdoor summer Shakespeare theater). And I really dislike it, as it drains the energy from me, and it's on the other side of campus. Well, the Master Electrician brought his laser temperature reader yesterday. The ambient temperature was 77ºF. The floor of the theater (particle board shellacked within an inch of it's life), with the mid-day sun beating on it, measured 168ºF. Yeah. It's an oven. That explains why on the big load in day, I drank over 2 liters of water, but only pissed once. I feel better in knowing why I'm so tired. But still don't want to go over there to finish the last of the notes.

Oh and also from a ways back--stink bombs at pride? How awful and juvenile and assholic. Jeez.

with our Props person leaving, it looks like I'm the "go-to-guy" for the boss to call to vent. Must remember to just listen. He's not looking for solutions.
