Yikes, Brenda!

Previously disappointing chocolate monkeys taste better today. Maybe they needed to age or breathe or something.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am not sure if I would rather BE a goat companion or HAVE a goat companion
Easy call for me.
I found a page in my settlement agreement (no, I'm just going to sign it and draw no lines between "will you stop your ADA accommodation?" and "your position is eliminated" because there's a table of ages and titles of other people that got eliminated the same time. I can't work out who they are, but I didn't know we had a 63 year old developer. Neat, for as long as it lasted.
Most people let go were within 2 years of my age.

ita, I can't remember if I said anything earlier, but I'm sorry about the job. I hope you find something good soon.

I have the Enjoli version of the "I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan..."
I have no idea what this is but read it as EMOJI, and was like "there's SONGS in Emoji? How the hell does that work?!" I was worried I was getting behind on the internet.
I don't think I have the admin skills for that (amongst other necessary skills), or want the admin duties associated with it. I'm not decrepit enough to seek a desk job yet.
I do kinda hate that there is such a discrepancy sometimes in what is good for one job, which you are required to do to get promoted to the next higher job which has completely different skills. And my current job is similar to not wanting a desk job--some people really like the traveling and don't want to work from home 24/7!
So, two weeks after my boss's boss is let go, my boss has given notice. Drama llamas abound.
Oooh. Disturbing, but also full of potential?
