Newsflash: I have tried TJ’s Gingerbread Cream Liqueur over ice and in hot (decaf) coffee and am surprised to find I prefer it over ice

A more complete dataset would involve trying it over ice cream.

So, now I have to devote some of my morning to falling down the Pam cat butter hole, because better late than never, right?

eta: I read the link -t kindly provided above, My day just improved dramatically despite the tears and the possibility that I scared my cats with the snorts. Thankfully I was not sipping my coffee at the time.

Oh, man, thanks for that link, -t. That was a delightful wake-up story.

I will carefully consider the ice cream follow up investigation, Laura

I feel like I should point out that I first came across Jean and Jory’s due to Fay, so it’s all Circle of Buffistas. Or something.

Ask a Manager is on vacation bur I hope someone sent this to her . I think its actually a great example of good HR and also a supervisor who was doing good at making accommodations, a co worker who was making things worse and then a supervisor who actually did the right thing in making changes when realizing they were treating Jorts and Jean differently.

Also if Jorts had been buttered and not margarined he might not have had diarrhea but maybe not.

I still haven't heard from workers comp about the new change in status. Still haven't received anything in the mail. I think I will have to get a lawyer involved if I want to get anywhere with this or get payment.

Ugh on workers comp, askye! Getting workers comp should be the easiest thing in the world and it makes me very angry that it's actually very difficult!

Apparently the third party administrator company Corvel is the absolute worst for dealing witv workers comp. Previously we had United dental which is the absolute worst became United Healthcare sucks the mew Dr I found for gp had a very visible negative reaction to hearing UnitedHealth when I mentioned it to him about..something .

I am thinking of all of you with health things and kid things and all the things.

I think I am in love with the Jean and Jorts saga. I retold it to my mom and she loves it too! I think I saw it from Dianne (possibly a Bronzer) and then Fay. I agree with askye that this is such a great example of a manager and HR handling things really well.

The airports are really busy today. I'm super not comfortable taking my mask off to eat and drink around this many people even without a new variant, and yet I need food and water to function.

Now my sister wants to know if I'd like to get together with our cousins while I'm visiting, which is not a question I want to answer on less than 4 hours of sleep. Like, I'm not particularly stoked about feeling obligated to travel this Christmas to see my immediate family. I guess my opening gambit is to ask if everyone is fully vaccinated, because if not, that's going to be a no from me, dawg.
