thank you yes that is very helpful! I think I tend to approach people problems the same way I approach thing problems and that can leave people feeling like I see them as things.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
quester, that's horrible. Some companies are really shitty to their employees. No wonder you're stressed out. I hope it works out well for you.
Laga, I hope you find a way to have that conversation. Steph's suggestion sounds good. Sometimes the other person is just primed to get mad and they will no matter what you say.
I am depressed and feeling a bit hopeless today. I'd go for a walk but my ankle hurts too much.

wasn't a good day. I got qualitied, which means 2 of the cases I worked on were checked and were wrong. they want 100% good quality and I was last month. But, this month of Doom has been hard, and I've been qualitied 4 times in the space of 1 week. I'm allowed 3 before it becomes a problem for management.
I had a 1 on 1 meeting with my fired Manager. She was understanding and encouraging, which is nice. I have to keep my shit together the rest of the month. Today I just felt like a zombie.
but I mailed my holiday cards, so one win.

I can't even.
Buffista holiday cards in the post (thanks again Kat). I was reminded to do so by my first card from a Buffista arriving in the mail (thanks Erika!), so that's sort of like having my shirt together, right? I have begun to purchase family gifts and Monday is my last work day for 2019. I fly out west on Tuesday and then the shopping begins in earnest. Hang in there, allbuddies!
