My former manager was the worst. You'd just see the note that said she was typing forever and ever. And then it would stop. And then it would start again.
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

My coworkers refuse to log into the work instant messenger and instead yell or call for EVERY. SINGLE. QUESTION.

Our wings are not tired.
Ugh, that is the worst, msbelle. Stabbing them seems the only solution.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I've found that I've been more snappish lately than I used to be. How much of that is anxiety, how much is perimenopause and how much is Mr. S, I don't know.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Anxiety and Mr. S alone would be a lot before you brought in perimenopause. I'm worried and anxious for all of you!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Sheryl, I'm asking myself the same questions often.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
We apparently have a "company paid mandatory fun celebration" next month.
It probably actually will be fun, but what a weird phrase.

I think they mean a mandatory company paid fun experience. Maybe
My anxiety is manifesting itself by barfing I think. I have had to take three days off work, but I think it is work.

Ugh, Sophia, no fun.
-t, could be ugh, could be actual fun. I always get nervous when presented with those "opportunities" myself. Fingers crossed.

Our Company Fun Opportunity, ie, Summer Picnic, is the end of this month. I shall not partake, even though I've had executives pout at me for it.
