Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It would serve them right if y'all were like "Oh, in THAT case, we will ALL be on vacation. At the same time. For the next several weeks. OOPS!" Go you with the fomenting.
My last job was kind of like that anyway, and people knew the vacation was use-or-lose. But damn, it was hard to get anything done in August.

Also, I had a piece of (what I now know to be) pulled pork and mango pizza for lunch. Fruit!!!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That is a difficult situation, sarameg, when your recourse is to hurt someone you don't want to hurt and not the ones who are screwing you. Good luck.

Is anyone here a member of AAA? Now that my vehicular resource is gone, I'm wanting someone I can call if weirdness happens when I'm driving home. Is it worth the money?

Our wings are not tired.
I've had AAA since I was in college, A Very Long Time. I haven't used it often recently but I am way ahead of the game. I recommend it for sure.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm a member of AAA, and it's definitely useful. I'm not sure how much it costs, since I'm on my parents' account, but I've used it a couple times. Having the card also makes you eligible for discounts on some other stuff.

The $57 membership has towing for 5 miles, but I work 20 miles from home. Next step is $91. Maybe AARP has discounts, I'm a member of that (the threshold is 50, and they managed Hubby's medicaid)

I feel like for me the most useful service AAA provides (roadside assistance service) my insurance also provides and, since I'm already paying for the insurance, I haven't thought it was necessary to pay extra to AAA. I have Geico, btw, and I've used their roadside assistance services several times and it's always been fine.
