Have you seen the German video that shows an older man talking....
Three videos have gone up so far. Here is a link with English subtitles:
Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?
Buffy ,'Never Leave Me'
Natter 76: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Foaminess

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
It is a temperature that starts with a three here today
I shouldn't admit this, but my first reaction (seriously) was "300 degrees OH MY GOD...wait."
Clearly I need more coffee.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Interestingly, that is the case over here as well.

Our wings are not tired.
Well, I could talk about the glory that is South Florida in November. I celebrated our cold front that came in last night and opened up my windows. It is apparently 78F out, but very breezy so it feels chilly to this thinned blooded Floridian. Also, billytea, I'm hoping that there is a very low number after that three!

Ugh. I always get more headaches in winter and I don’t know why. But I hate it. Had one Monday, had one last night that continues into this morning.
Those German ads are great.
Raq that is awful being in a windowless room sans internet. Even without covid that sounds awful. Ick.

Silly/convoluted thing from work I have to share.
Every other week I gather and submit all the hours our department spends on COVID related things. For this example assume the first and third weeks of each month are A and the second and fourth are B. These timesheets are A/B
The weeks I do not do this form, I submit a timesheet for Big Boss to her boss of just her COVID time. These timesheets are B/A.
Could they have coordinated to be due the same weeks? You would think, but no.
Big boss does not actually keep her time so I guess and send in to her fir approval. As shown in previous examples Big Boss is prone to mis-reading and making things very confused, so we use just the one timesheets for her.
So the issue is, when I get her timesheet for her boss approved, I have only half of her time I need for the Department submittal. I then send her a half-filled out timesheet to just approve the time on the first week, she ALWAYS sends it back with the full thing filled out and signed and locked. So she fills out FUTURE TIME! It is so ridiculous and makes me laugh every time. Like how?!?!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
...filled out and signed and locked. So she fills out FUTURE TIME!
She's not signing under penalty of perjury, is she?
What are the consequences if she ends up not working the hours reported?
Policy came down from my VP back in March that there would be no overtime without prior written notice from her. I have been abiding by that, even though it is very awkward when patches are released towards the end of a payroll cycle. My manager is not happy about it. Too bad.

Literally no clue what happens if time is ever audited.
I resend her this signed locked form before I submit to her boss (the next week) so she could alter the time.

And the department chief who 1) never sends me her dept attendance and 2) is always late with department and her own time sheets: is once again LATE! I have everything else ready to go.
In non-work related news I finally got around to scheduling the follow up ultrasound from my mammogram. Trying to get a bunch of Dr things done before year end.
