Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's a whole fraught Thing, and takes way too much time, always!

So, I've been casually looking at job postings, and just saw one that looks amazing: doing the kind of work I'm interested in, in the same building as my old job, so a decent commute, AND it looks like the last person in the job made more than I make now! All my criteria!

Awesome, Jesse! You should put in for it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Awesome, Jesse! You should put in for it.

Woo, glad you are going for it, Jesse!

Apparently I have deep seated feelings about meeting schedules!

Oh, man. I have SO MANY FEELINGS about this. Like, how about you don't double and triple-book me for meetings? Why wouldn't you look at my calendar to see when I'm available? Why am I making the effort to update my calendar if you chuckleheads aren't even going to use the tools we have that can SHOW YOU WHEN ALL NECESSARY PEOPLE ARE AVAILABLE?!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Go Jesse!

Man, I am feeling all warm and fuzzy towards my company's meeting scheduling process now. It's pretty reasonable. Even if any meetings are kinda too many meetings for me, but once I grant that there have to be some meetings, the way mine are scheduled is not bad.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Go, Jesse! Wooo!

I don't think it occurs to anyone in my Department that they can look at other people's calendars and see who's scheduled for when.

Oh yeah, that one, too. A lot of my coworkers don't keep their calendars up to date, so I get the asking if I'm available, but to book me when I am already booked? NO. I just reply all the time "My calendar is up to date. Feel free to find an available time."

Most of the time people schedule meetings like reasonable human beings, but every once in a while I run into someone who schedules meetings like they live in opposite world.
