If only we had a house to sell. It's so totally a sellers market right now. So far both of our counters have wanted us to do things like waive the appraisal contingency or waive the finance approval contingency. There is a lot of pressure to move all of the risk over to the buyer.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

-t Mac is fine by himself, but it means he would have to get better about feeding himself. In fact, he should really be working part time, but he will not get off his ass and apply.
I would like to only add 8-12 hours of part time work, but realize it could end up more than that.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That sounds like a pretty reasonable plan to me, then.

One of my coworkers has apparently worked there part-time (or maybe full-time in addition to working here?) for quite a while. I haven't talked to her about it, but it must be bearable as she keeps doing it.

Ridiculous work whining: how much do I hate installing multi-step authentication and company portal software on my phone? So, so much.

Cover-letter writing question - if I'm applying for a job that, on paper, is below my current seniority level and not in my field of expertise, is it better to gloss over that or call it out? ("I'm amazing, interview me" vs "I know my resume isn't what you were expecting, but here's why I'm amazing, interview me.")

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
is it better to gloss over that or call it out
If you can give a good explanation of why, I think it's good to address it. Ask a Manager had an example recently that isn't exactly the same, but might help?
