Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

A while back I was bragging on my dad for being made a Lifetime Member of the Water Reuse Association. They finally added him to their website. He is the 4th one down.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ai yai yai -- these potential new job people are super aggressive. They want me to come back in next week! Which is good, but I am really racking up the time out of the office, if they don't hire me. Also, they want samples, which I'm going to have to work on at home tonight, and I feel like I'm already behind on responding, which is ridiculous.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Suzi, that's awesome!
Sometimes I get fake LinkedIn requests, but they're easy to spot, since they rarely go to the email address I have on mty profile there. So when I got a link request from Henry Don Miranda Aka:Enrique Don Miranda I assume it's more of the same.
But...it's to the right address, and the links look legit, so I log in to see, and yes. There's a page for him with the job of Fugitive wanted: call police: warrant out for arrest listed, and whut? Since when has LinkedIn been used like this? I would report the profile, but I noticed that we have a Buffista in common, and...I'm just confused.
Anyone else get something like this?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Scenario:
Last week I organized a meeting with 3 other faculty and said that lunch would be provided.
I sent them links to the website of the vendor, and even included separate links for soup, sandwich, salad. I told them they could also choose a "pick 2". In a follow up email, I asked for them to provide their side.
I had the list ready to go. Called in the order. A staff member is picking it up. Done. I'm working on the agenda now.
Got a phone call from one of the attendees.
Is lunch being ordered? Otherwise I can pick up something for myself.
Okay.
Um.
You ordered lunch. It is being picked up right now. Did you really think that after ordering and all that - there would be no lunch for you?
What?

I am learning that people can just be flaky. Or their short-term memory has a rapid turnover. Or something.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

We're having apple turnovers for lunch?

Just read Beep Me after few days off the board. Burrell, I'm so very sorry. My deepest sympathies to you and yours.
