Argh all the talk of deposits for healthcare is putting more ticks in the 'do not move to the US' column. Scary!
Of course, Brexit is piling up ticks in the 'get out of here' column, so.
You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

I don't know, I've been reading complaints from Canadians about the quality of their healthcare system lately. Yeah the price is right, but at least some people are finding they got what they paid for.

I think we might be eligible for Canada? But not for Australia . Of course if Clinton turns the US into a socialist wonderland I'll be on the first plane over.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
As long as you're healthy and traditionally employed, the system here works great!

Holy cow, I am not in the right frame of mind to be cheerful and interested for a 7AM meeting.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
There are rumors about layoffs at my company. Well, they aren't rumors, practically a whole department got laid off. The rumor is they're eyeing Books next, since that department has never been profitable. (And I'm all, "but aren't we a non-profit?" Still gotta make money, I guess.) My gossipy coworker who's my conduit to the grapevine is fearing our department will be next. I doubt it, we're the most profitable department besides sales/marketing, but you never know what our evil overlords are planning.
I don't know how much to fret. Some job~ma would be appreciated, if you can spare some.

I hope that you can get away with just being present and no one insists on cheerful & interested.
job~ma, Zen. Even if they don't hit your dept, it will change company culture.

Oof, good luck, Zen.
Holy cow, I am not in the right frame of mind to be cheerful and interested for a 7AM meeting.
I would literally never be in that frame of mind. I guess I should be grateful that our folks in other time zones mostly accommodate us here.
