I would really like to keep the salary and benefits and WFH perks of my current job, without having to do the actual job. If there was a different job with all of that, I'd be interested in it, but I'll never find anything like that.

Lol, I feel that way too Dana. I have to complete my goals tonight and am trying hard to not put a goal of "don't rage-quit this job"

During my incredibly insulting review, at one point I did say, "I'd hate to lose my 4 weeks of vacation, but 4 weeks of vacation isn't worth THIS."

That's fantastic news, Chris.

Fred, I'm so sorry to hear about Joey. Stupid shorter lifespans than ours.

We divide and attempt to conquer. H is clean-as-you-go guy in the kitchen, and I've just picked up the habit. If there's not a pile of stuff, it's easy to wash a plate, a glass, a fork. If there's a few things dry in the drainer, it's not a problem to put them away.

But he's the worst.ever. about leaving stuff--"I'm gonna get back to that, I'm not finished going through those papers," and goes off and builds a tree fort or something. He *strews* things: boots, jackets, gloves, hand tools, baskets and stacks of clean laundry. He works hard and takes on tasks, but he really has trouble finishing, like, ANYthing.

So I'm the cleaner. I scoop and stack and shelve and file...and remember where *I* put it, because gods know he doesn't remember where he left it. I'm a tidier. Square corners on those stacks of books and magazines, clothes and dishes and papers picked up and put away. I will run a swiffer over hard surfaces, tops of picture frames, lampshades, etc. But below ankle height? Not my domain, man. I will scrub the hell out of the range hood or the fridge/freezer gasket while the coffee drips, but I don't do floors. Or tubs or showers. There's a squeegee I use on the shower walls and door, shoot some scrubbing bubbles on the floor, let it set a while and hose it down with the hand shower next time I go in the bathroom. Toilets? Yup, inside and out. Kitchen and bathroom sinks? Sparkle. Mirrors? Frequent wipe-downs.

H does the laundry, I do the folding, we both put away our own (do not look at the basket and a half of unfolded unput-away stuff on my closet floor. It's an aberration).

He cooks, I clean up. It works. We'd both be a lot happier to strip out all the carpet in this place and replace it with hard surface, swifferable flooring, though.

Epic, I am rageful on your behalf. If I could bottle that energy and send it to you to use effectively I would. And I'm sorry.

That's great, chris!

I cam in early this morning so I should be leaving approximately now. Is that happening? Signs point to no.

Beverly, I am pleased to be supported in emai-...board, at least, since I'm not feeling supported by my employer.

Timelies all!

Great news chris!

You will all be thrilled to hear that my biweekly 6:45 meeting is shifting to the DST time of 7AM. Husband said, "That's a big deal?"

I will take what I can get.

Congratulations, Dana!

That sucks, Epic. I hope you can stick it to the man in a satisfying way.

I just need these orders to show up and I can go home. Come on orders!
