I need to set mine up for autopsy, for reals.
Hee! I maybe need to do an autopsy on my spending sometimes.
I feel like I should put more bills on autopay, but I'm always afraid something will go wrong and they'll accidentally charge me $10,000 and take it out of my bank account and I'll have to fight for months to get it back or whatever.
So I left my computer cord at work. That was a critical error. I can do some stuff on my own computer, but nsm the time consuming business I was really hoping to get to! Argh.
Oh man, that's frustrating. I have done that on a couple work trips, and ended up buying another cord at Radioshack. Which was not cheap, but was better than trying to tell my boss I couldn't do any work...
OK, I could use some good Buffista wordsmithing help: I need to write a review of the manager of my current project (for inclusion as part of our annual 360 review). She is AWFUL. The project is ending next month, so it's not like I need fear reprisal or anything, and I know several other colleagues are planning to do the same (write a detailed honest scathing review).
So, how do I professionally say she's a micromanaging yet ineffective dithering thinks-shes-being-nice-but-is-actually-patronizing unhelpful bitchy person, who has 5000 unread emails, doesn't respond to half the emails sent, and when she does respond tends to ask questions about things that are clear in the original email, or pick out something else to ask about that has nothing to do with anything, and makes it clear she only glanced at it before sending a reply? She also tends to overuse "I don't understand...." in her replies when clearly she DOES understand but just wants to be argumentative without sounding mean or something.
Oof, that's a tough line to walk.

Oh, that sounds better than going by the office, at least! I will try that when I go to the orthodontist.

Tough one. Disorganized. Unresponsive. Lacking in focus. Not a good fit for the role/doesn't demonstrate the expertise necessary for the role. Doesn't make smart, timely decisions. Not an effective communicator.

Yep. All of the above (this is the woman that when I replied explaining no, it was unlikely I could get to a certain place by a certain time, because it was in North Dakota (and therefore fewer flights/far), she replied "Thanks Dora the Explorer!")
Unprofessional.
Maybe put those under "Areas for improvement".
The last time I had to buy a power cord on a business trip I was able to expense it. So technically my spare cable belongs to the company but since it's for my work laptop it's not like I needed it for anything else!
I don't do autopay because my paycheck is tied to a day of the week, not a specific date. I don't want to risk not having the funds on the date the payment drops.
she replied "Thanks Dora the Explorer!"
Yeesh. I think the word for that is just "asshole".
