Riley ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I will always remember your legal name, because it weirds me out. It sounds like a character name.
Well, if I ever write a novel, I guess I won't need a nom de plume.
You need to get out.
I am nodding at you unhappily. I need to find a new internal role ASAP, and if that doesn't happen, then I will need to take a sabbatical or leave the company before they decide to get rid of me for being a low performer.
FWIW, I have seen couples who separate come back together with better harmony than they had before, so. But some time apart, where you're all safe, is good.
I had a good morning of Ubering. Just getting out and making a mild amount of money has improved my overall long-term mood immensely.
That's the thing about a big crisis, it really is an opportunity to think about what you want, how things ought to be, and how to get there from where you are, even if the things you are thinking about are not directly related to the crisis.
What -t said. I'm glad you checked in, Amy.

For what it's worth, I'd say leave the company if at all possible, because that's a sign of a toxic culture.
I am so glad you took the chance with Uber and that it seems to be a good stop gap for you.
I had a meeting with my manager this morning that completely demoralized me.
Hey, I just had a meeting with a fairly new stakeholder (who some of the other teams flat out refuse to work with) about how much I suck and how and which senior members of leadership she's told how much I suck and how. Including my new boss. So that was fun.
Where do people get the vajayjays to have those kinds of meetings? I would have a really hard time calling a meeting with someone and telling gem they sucked. I have no issue telling people when they should have done something they neglected to cover, but just generally "you are bad at your job and I am telling people"? No.

So not true. Of shrift, either.
Ugh, shrift and brenda. That is the worst. And not true.

I'm attempting to move into a part of the company that doesn't sit in the sales organization, because the sales org is toxic to me personally. If that doesn't work out, then I'll have to leave the company.
Including my new boss. So that was fun.
Ugh, brenda. I was hoping things were moving in a positive direction for you, too.
