Problem solved, I'm happy. Although there's a little bit of contrary "I am AWESOME how dare you not want me," but I really think this is for the best.
Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

Well, as I sat here crying over that dead kid I used to know, and having had a panic attack during botox on Monday, I wondered whether taking a likely high-stress job was really a good idea for me right now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
They are definitely assholes!

They are losing, most definitely.

Uh. I can confirm that it will not help the situation.

I think my phone issue was really an internet issue, and it's fine now, so ... disregard!

I am doing pretty well on my to do lists and actually got a fair amount of work done today.
I had the meeting with my boss's boss and my boss today. While I do think they are interested in keeping me with the company, I got the distinct feeling they are most interested if their is a way for them to put me in a position that benefits them rather than kinda selling my skills to another department that might be a better fit for me. I guess that is to be expected.
Clear from the meeting though is that zero conversations have already happened with some of the baseline important people, like HR, and VPs who would have to decide if they would even support having a remote employee of my level in MD where we do not have any current employees or operations.
I think as I have spoons to do so, I will start applying to jobs.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We got Mr. S a kids' tablet to use on our upcoming trip. He threw a tantrum when we wouldn't let him have it in his room. Sigh...

I've been going back and forth on that one Sheryl because I know ltc will want it 24/7.
