It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

If that were to happen here, I'd be beyond confused.

I have seen a locking cat door that would only open for the prox fob on the cat's collar.

I saw this at a pet expo. It was pretty expensive. A friend who has this for her dog with the theory that it would keep the cat from going out. But the cat was smart enough to realize if she followed the dog out, she could get through before the lock re-engaged. So, non-fobed animal still have the opportunity to go through the flap.

Other coworker: "So, I'm going to go up to the 3rd floor ... and look for condoms. Which is not a sentence I ever thought I would utter."

Our wings are not tired.

I have never encountered condoms in the workplace, nor have I sought them.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

The closest I've come to library worthy stories was when I worked evenings and weekends at ClothWorld. There was some weird shit. And sometimes literal shit.

As another coworker said to me, "Hey, unused. This is nothing like the Serial Pooper."

I have dealt with so many condoms in the workplace. Really, numbers in the thousands.

Because books.

-t, I hope the transition is easy. I wish you didn't have to make these changes, though.

I don't have condom stories from the bakery. But I do have surprisingly large numbers of grown-up people who want me to cut their food for them.

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

The scuttlebutt is that the LATAM team is being dissolved, so that's probably why my position was cut, since that was one of my responsibilities. Which makes me feel a little better. OTOH, my send that upper management does not actually know either what I do or what I want but will make decisions based on what they think is reinforced. Meh

At any rate, start tomorrow in Vallejo at 9 with the Accounts Payable Supervisor. Which is not work I would prefer to do, but I will probably be good at it. Which is a particular kind of work suffering that I have been in before. But maybe it will be better than I think, who knows? Trying to keep an open mind.
