We just got told we have to take a week of furlough sometime in May/June. We can take it unpaid or use vacation time, which is whatever, fine, I am trying to look at it as being allowed to take vacation time because I was feeling like I wouldn't be able to ask for time off at all. My boss put up a spreadsheet for everyone to put their time into minutes before I had a call with a customer, so by the time I even got to look at it there was no way for me to take 5 days off in a row. There are 8 days for me to choose my 5 days in. One Monday, 4 Tuesdays, 1 Wednesday, and 2 Thursdays. That is some bullshit.

Wow, that really is some bullshit!

I was reading about a Quaker meeting that was having online/Zoom meetings and one person asked another if they were meditating or if their computer froze up.

Heh.

That is definitely bullshit.

I am waiting for a doctor to show up at this telehealth visit, and she is running late, just like physical appointments. Yay better living through technology?

Straight up bullshit, -t. Can you tell someone in power why you were late to the signups and see if they'll help you out? Hope so, that seriously sucks.

BULL! SHIT!

hey! guess who has done none, absolutely none of college work for the whole semester?

You guessed it.

Not sure if he ever attended a class at all, but dropped or was dropped from his business class and is getting an AMAZING 0.00% in his music class (the one for the certificate he supposedly wants to get).

This means Any money I have gotten from the college savings account to pay his expenses is in violation of the tax law. He has to be taking at least 2 classes to be legally using those funds.

my son. the asshole.

Oh dear. He sounds like my friends' kids who are about that age. And honestly, like some of my friends at that age! They eventually got their acts together.

did their parents support them through it all? Cause I'm the summer away from tapping out.

Timelies all!

I guess I'm lucky that my primary care physician is not my prescribing doc. I'm due for a late June appointment with my psychiatrist, but even if things aren't open for regular visits, there will probably be a way to do a tele appointment. (I see her every six months, she gives me prescriptions for 90 days of meds, with one refill)

Oh, msbelle. I'm sorry.

I doubt it, Epic. We have our dept weekly call tomorrow, maybe I will have an opportunity to complain then, but I don't really expect it. There's just too many of us, even cut in half as we are, for everyone to get something satisfactory unless we all agreed to each take a full week in alphabetical order or something.
