It probably won’t be, Laura! The Outlet Sale starts tomorrow, that never leads to more sanity. If we can’t get the thingy fixed, will it impact the sale? Who knows? I’m scheduled to cashier 2-6 either way. Which means I don’t intend to start working until maybe 9:30 but I don’t know if I’ll be able to get away with that.
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

I thought you said magic "teats" and I was intrigued.

Our wings are not tired.
That's some timing for the network to go kaflooey.

Oh, well, my manager thinks I'm great, so my desire to quit is more about burnout and a general disenchantment with Silicon Valley. I also don't know what to be when I grow up, so while I could change careers, not working at all seems like a really attractive option. Unsustainable, but attractive.
I really do need to get myself an ADHD evaluation. I imagine I'd have more energy if I wasn't constantly fighting my brain to do things I need to do when I need to do them.

And I just saw on Facebook that the sale opening is postponed but have not gotten an email about it. Glad I’m not scheduled to open at least!

ADHD evaluation is a good idea! Oh, hey, my therapist diagnosed me with job burnout a few years ago. It was right before I got laid off/transferred and changed therapists due to geographical challenges so I don’t remember what she suggested to do about it. She was kind of hilariously excited to be able to tell me what was wrong, though. But two birds with one application of mental health coverage, maybe

Ok, there’s an official email, I feel slightly better. This is going to be a nightmare for the schedulers. Glad that’s not my job.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Good luck, -t. May the chaos be something you can merely observe from a comfortable distance.
shrift, are there still potential transfer options?
I'm several days behind, but on the topic of living on a boat and cruising around the world... [link] An old roommate of mine used to work on that boat.

Wow, that's super deluxe. Makes White Lotus look like a Ramada Inn.
I had a brief fantasy of "Oh that would be kind of cool..." and then I watched the film with the kind of country club rich dudes I hate making my skin crawl.
Yes, it would be cool to visit Antartica or the Hebrides in my own home. No, I don't want to be trapped on a boat with people like that.
