Oh! Happy birthday, Fred Pete!
aurelia, may it pass quickly and without sickness.
Man, you just get darker and darker, and the weird thing is, your aura? Beige.

Punishingly Intricate
I have 1/1s with all 3 of my direct reports Friday which I don't usually since I'm both going on vacation next week and I'm moving into a new role and they won't be reporting to me soon. And we're telling the team Friday so I wanted to make sure to check in with them right away.

Oh! And I just realized I could cancel a meeting because we actually had the discussion today!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I had an 8:00 am meeting and a meeting that lasted UNTIL 8:00 pm in one day last week. This amount of work is seriously going to become undoable if I can't stop having meetings. I know some jobs are really mostly about having meetings, but I can neither build courses nor answer people's questions with these endless meetings! And for some reason it is harder to hang back and just do work on a zoom meeting than in an in person, which is weird. I think it is the lack of two monitors, so I have to minimize zoom to work during a meeting.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Hooray canceled meeting!
Hope your quarantine is simple and easy, aurelia
Wow, Cashmere, that is a lot of disruption to the schedule, for sure. Hope everyone is ok!
{{{Amy}}} I'm so sorry. Constant rage-crying really takes it out of you. That should not be your lot.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Fred Pete!
I'm sorry about your friend, Sophia.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I have very few meetings, like only one standing one each week and we are not on video, so it's not even seeing people - and STILL when I am tasked with setting up a call to deal with something I opt to try and get it resolved/dealt with via emails.

I love dealing with things via email or chat. If nothing else, you have a record to refer back to.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I was just complaining about my "this could have been an email" meeting this morning.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I love dealing with things via email or chat. If nothing else, you have a record to refer back to.
And you get the unparalleled satisfaction of being able to get all "per my last email..."
