Oooh, Azores! Lots of flowers and stunning visuals. Blue, blue water. (Thinks wistfully of her one day there.)
Oh, Pacey! You blind idiot. Can't you see she doesn't love you?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Rebecca, that sounds... unnecessarily complicated and the opposite of helpful.

You guys, I am completely overwhelmed at work. There's stuff due for a hard deadline that there's no way I can make it. So many ops issues have happened in the past 2 months, I don't even have time to do the paperwork describing why it isn't getting done. I keep telling people this, but they aren't listening.

sarameg, fwiw I'm swimming up the same shlt creek. No one wants to hear there's too much work.

Otoh, the frustration makes for really fast swims. Last couple of days, sub56. Almost got under 55s averages tonight. That's rare for me.

And everyone knows we have to much work. Just no one wants to take the hit.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We've discovered the little guy's not so fond of green vegetables. We tried feeding him peas, and he kept spraying them out of his mouth. Tonight was green beans, which ate a little, dribbled some out, then refused to open his mouth to eat any more. We'll keep trying...

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
That just saps a lot of strength at work, sarameg and Zen.

Their hiring another level of chief engineer whose responsibility will be to manage the balance higher up, as the level at which mgmt assigns the work, they don't have the pull to push back. Or something like that. But they're still in search mode.
