Sort of off topic, but I can't say it anywhere else. What I can't stand about midern American work culture is this in a nutshell: my boss ( who made me leave the bakery Friday, immediately, because I coughed and a "very important customer complained, essentially laying me off for 14 days) knows I am at a hospital with Sara, who had an emergency appendectomy on Sunday. And yet, she just texted me to place an order to our restaurant supplier.
I want out of this timeline and off this planet more every day.
Sorry. I'm literally enraged.
Holy shit, Amy. WTAF. You should be enraged!
askye, I think you are thinking of Nick Carter, hair-wise.
I have had a bunch of calls today, but I also accidentally took an hour and a half for lunch, between making it, eating it, going for a walk with my mother and also to CVS. Man, there was really no one in there, and yet somehow I bought the last bag of cotton balls!
Also, good luck with those interviews, Dana+DH!
And Katerina Bee, I am sorry for your sister and also hope you don't have to give her rides if she's unpleasant about it.
Holy shit, Amy. WTAF. You should be enraged!
Exactly! I'm sorry, Amy. How is Sara doing?
She's hoping to go home soon (like, in an hour or two). She just has to tolerate the oral antibiotics, which is tough because she has no appetite. But so far, so good! Otherwise she's just sore and tired. And homesick. :-)
Oh, Amy. That ain't right. Ass her in the ear. Glad to hear Sara is so close to going home!
Yeah, the new owner is a piece of work. Brought up all over the world, the "daughter of philosopher parents" as her bio states (read: wealthy, pretentious white people), and just 29. She has no idea how to be anyone's boss. At least not well.

That brings to mind where Richard Branson is often quoted saying to put employees first and customers second because with happy appreciated employees comes well served customers.
Oh, Amy, that's just awful.
JZ, keeping fingers crossed for your family.
Texas gov is still not ordering a statewide stay-at-home order. I can almost see the argument that we're too big and varied for a single ordnance. And most of the major metropolitan areas already have one kind or another in place. But it's looking more dubious by the day.
Locally we seem to be moving out of panic-buying mode - I went to HEB Sunday around 11 and there was no line to get in, the selves didn't look nearly as picked-over, and I actually got a pack of toilet paper. Aside from groceries and a walk once a night, I'm staying in as much as I can.
Stay Safe!
