Welcome to tech.
Not just tech.
Glad to hear that, Amy. What a weird thing. (ETA S, not, ratings)
Hey! What a surprise! Hostile 17! Can I get you a drink, Hostile 17?

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm currently on two conference calls at the same time. Because both of them are required, and they were scheduled at the same time.

Very efficient!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
My contribution to meeting #1 was "I have nothing this week."
My contribution to meeting #2 is not remote-strangling the coordinator, who keeps making jokes and going off on tangents (now he's talking about selling GS cookies). He's trying real hard to make this "fun" but everyone is confused and we've lost the plot completely.
"Where's the questionnaire?" "Did we spell questionnaire right?" (No.) "Wait, which survey are we talking about?" "OUR survey. The one we wrote." "You mean the questionnaire?"
We are the Keystone Kops of editors.
Now he's giving us an update of weather conditions on the highway. Why? Oh, a semi trailer slid off the road. His wife saw it happen. Further bulletins as events unfold!
Damn it, I just volunteered for something. I had to, otherwise I would've done nothing on this stupid project.
FFS, wrap it up. Nobody's gonna fill out this stupid survey, nobody cares. What's wrong with day-drinking, anyway, someone remind me.

It doesn't pay well?

It's not all about the money, Matt. You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit.

Truer words, Zen, truer words.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Been thinking off and on lately, what a judgmental jerk I was when I was a teenager. Soooooo glad that I am maturing into a more compassionate person. Thankful that I'm learning more about how to be compassionate throughout my life; I'm still learning.

I think I need this for my tagline. May I, Zen?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I've been fighting off an anxiety attack all day. Walked in to work to a phone call for a P.O. that I know nothing about, and an email from my boss about another P.O. that I haven't done any work on. That started a spiral of me feeling like I am behind on anything and dropping balls and lost on how to start on half those things anyway.
And yes I get that I've made this worse by being a giant slacker.
I got through a pile of work, but did not resolve either of the P.O. issues. Ughhh
Mac had a job interview today and I want him to get this job so bad. He needs to start to understand what minimum wage work will be like.
