Willow ,'Lessons'
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.
Pretty common, actually. In the months after the UPS caught fire and we lost power, there was a fairly steady trickle of failures in systems. Things get physically stressed, a little corruption here and there, eventually it snowballs.
The Two-Mistake Rule is uttered a lot here (turning it off you your first mistake. Turning it back on is the second.)
So today we have electricity, but we lost our server about 9:30
Where did you last see it? Work from there.
OH GOD PROJECT PLANS.
(If there's nothing here, I go to Tumblr, and there goes half an hour)
(Protect me)
I have basically done no work at work this week. At least I had some meetings? Oy,
I've spent most of the week trying to deal with putting what should go into a db into Excel because we've been told we're no longer allowed to use Access. Watch me swear. Watch me spend hours trying to figure out a simple task. Watch me go on tumblr instead.
I have cleaned off my plate, and I have nothing left to do at work. Relatedly, today will NEVER END.
I think that is to be expected, Jesse. Did you take any time off?
Orgy bed, le n? Any bed that markets itself as "fits four" better have some other features, like easy-to-clean, for starters.
It wouldn't work for me because it restricts how/where you can get out of it.
And I just realised my boss booked me all day, no lunch break. Now, I brought lunch, but he doesn't know that. And since he told me we'd meet at 12 and then 12:20 with a bunch of work to do before that, I don't think he was factoring in me leaving the building before 2 at the earliest. DUDE. I've been trying to set boundaries, but he says stuff like "I don't care what hours you work, as long as the work is done" (re: leaving at 3 yesterday) but still tries to contact me at the times blocked out on my calendar. He did apologise, but I think his reflexes are go go go.
The expectations on him are high like they were with my first boss here, and with a similar amount of CxO and Presidential inspection. That's exhausting. Especially if you're, you know, me.
I think that is to be expected, Jesse. Did you take any time off?
Just Monday at the hospital and then Tuesday. We're having the funeral/memorial service in September, so I'll need at least one (maybe two) days then, and we get three bereavement days.
