'War Stories'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Misha Collins is road-tripping through Ohio today to campaign for HRC, and he's going to be at the HRC office close to my house (WAY closer to flea's house than mine) at 6:30. I feel like I should go, for Buffista solidarity, but I've only watched one episode of Supernatural and I hate crowds.
But I'm still amused by it. And that's a super-small office, so I'm wondering how it's going to play out.
CLEARLY you can tell by all my posts that I can't concentrate on a goddamn thing and will probably be like this until the networks call it tomorrow night.
I have work to do, with actual deadlines, and it is NOT HAPPENING. Ack.
Ha! I never watched Supernatural at all, but I can see things being a little crazy there! When Bill Clinton went to that office, it was unannounced, and he was outside on the sidewalk.
I think being amused by it is enough for Buffista solidarity, Tep.
My coping mechanism seems to be buying things. Oddly, needful things like underpants and tampons.
And chocolate Reisen, which are totally needful.
If I have time tonight, I'm making cookies. But I need to look up my ballot/issues/whatnot online and also paint my nails with Madam President.
Maybe I should have a beer right now. It might ease the jitters, and if I've proven I can edit well while whacked out on migraine meds, 1 beer shouldn't be a problem. Hmmm.
That is a nasty mess, Toddson. I'm glad that you have documentation that the mess is not of your making.
Basically, I think the graphics person is a whiny baby and is creating inefficiencies, but since I am the bottom of the hierarchy, I will make sure to not defile her inbox ever again and make extra work for my coordinator instead of just being goddamn efficient.
There is very little I hate more about corporate bureaucracies than the culture of "email person A asking them to email person B so they can email person C about a question person Z had." DUDE, WE ARE ALL ADULTS HERE. IF YOU WANT TO KNOW A THING, ASK THE PERSON WHO HAS THE ANSWER AND STOP WASTING MY TIME AND PIXELS.
Ugh, I have a 6:45 AM meeting tomorrow. Like tomorrow won't be BAD ENOUGH.
And now I am rolling my eyes at that graphics person.
Also, went in on my day off to interview someone. While there bosslady asked if I wanted to tackle figuring out a mess in someone's checkbook. Yeah, I did. Last night when I was working, it almost made me cry when I found the mess. So bosslady helped me find missing documents and essentially the problem was that the account had not been reconciled since the person before the person before me. OK, that was in August of this year (yeah, turnover has been an issue this year). I am so glad that it was not a major error or worse.
