I get paid for my 10 minute breaks but not for lunch, Matt. I get clocked for all of them, though. It's supposedly to ensure that I am getting my legally mandated breaks, so, whatever. That starts Thursday. Sigh.

Ah, sounds more like to make sure no one is taking breaks beyond the legally mandated 10 minutes. But if you're getting paid for those, just annoying rather than outrageous.

It's pretty stupid, but capitalism so what do you expect?

Pretty fountain, sarameg. Healing thoughts towards person on the sidewalk, that sounds pretty bad.

I'm calling it the kitchen toilet. Going to take some getting used to the sound of water running without running to shut it off.

It's more elegant than many. Throw some stones in it, could be a tabletop fountain. But for now, kitchen.

Cat fountain

The best part of the description in the link is "Not intended for children."

I guess they could clock each other with the parts? Only a premobile baby could fit its face in there.

Dear god, can these iOS updates finish? First my new phone, now the iPad...

And windows 10 was FOREVER.

My last Ubuntu update took a good 11 seconds.

I am once again having that nagging feeling that if I just gave up sleeping I could manage my life ok.

The ER was fun, in the sense that I hated it. Too sleepy with the meds to do anything, but not sleepy enough to sleep, so I was bored out of my skull. The stuff definitely helped, but not enough that I can say "Aha, miracle cure." So I'll be trying to avoid that in the future.
