I agree! But the posting box doesn't.
I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I'm working from home today, and I have Thursday, Friday, and next Monday off. Five day weekend! It's taking all my will power to keep from turning it into a six day weekend.
Instead of correcting your manager publicly, I'd suggest that you save all his mistakes, highlight them, then attach them to your good-bye email when you leave to manage your unexpected $60,000,000 windfall.

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

I hate that spelling.
Of course, I still hate that I have to keep my work computer on MM/DD/YY, so I rage at the stupidest things. Don't join my army.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I hate that spelling.
Apparently, it's actually wrong, so you are in good company.
We got the word that we can leave at 2 on Friday, but my boss is on vacation! Do I have to come in at all???

My company gets to leave early, too! Except for all the people who directly work with customers. Hi, there.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
We are leaving early, but I feel bad because my student needs the money so I am trying to figure out how she can stay. I also feel annoyed, because she is leaving early today to write a paper she has to turn in tomorrow, but I think making her stay today and leave Friday is actually petty when I don't have an urgent project for her.
Scrappy, I am so sorry to hear about kitty.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
We get to leave early on Friday, too, which means 1:30 for me, so I'm planning on not taking a lunch. Last time we had an early day I was an hourly temp and my manager couldn't figure out how to let me leave early and still get paid for the full day (which is how it's supposed to work here) so I didn't.

Here they have decided that if you are hourly, you can't get paid for leaving early, because if you leave and are clocked in, the University is legally responsible for you still, even though you are not actually at work! So hourly people have to use their vacation time, and salaried people do not. There was a big outcry when they first started, because they were going to make salaried staff use vacation (even though it is less than a half day, and we can only take half days), but not salaried faculty.
