I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

7AM meeting. So far, only people here are the organizer, me, and my coworker.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Honest to god, I really thought I had signed up for commuter benefits, but apparently I never had. So that's whatever, but I finally did it for real, and it goes into effect in June, when I'll be out of the office for 10 days. So I guess I should push it to July, but I'm afraid to touch anything for fear of breaking it.

The status is NOT quo.
Thanks everyone. It's been a rough 12 months and that just was the nasty icing on the fruit cake no one wanted in the first place.

I'm so sorry, Pix.
What kind of benefit, Jesse?
Oy, Tim.

Does anyone understand the political significance of the UK prime minister calling for an early election? I understand what it is, but does the PM expect to gather more support for her party and Brexit?
(Apparently political thought is what you get from me in early mornings.)

Monthly transit pass at half-price AND automagically loaded onto the card for me. Given the deep discount, leaving it there for June is basically fine but it's the principle! (I've also been regretting buying my pass this month since I was out two days last week and have walked three ways so far this week, but bygones.)

I think that's right? She thinks she can win easily, which solidifies her position?

Oh my god, 7AM meeting ended half an hour ago, and I've been chatting with my coworker ever since. I want time to get up! I need a Coke!

That surprises me, given the general "oops!" that they seemed to be feeling after the vote. But maybe I'm not following the nuances.

We sorted out Tim's taxes last night, and he is not dead. But it got a little tense up in this joint for a while. Sheesh.

Mm, that does take thinking then. What's your break-even usage where buying the pass is worthwhile? For my bus pass it would be 17 days, which I never feel certain I'll get to (especially as the pass is only good on local routes so anything inter-city is still extra) but half-price would be a whole different kettle of fish.
Automagically loaded has some value, too, of course, but I think we can ignore it for the initial sign up.
