Pickle service contract? That is bizarre!
I had my “this is your raise and bonus for the year” and am trying to decide if I’m annoyed. For context, the company has had a great couple years, and I could very easily get hired elsewhere and get a signing bonus etc. (but then I’d have to interview, and learn new systems, ewwww). The bonus is like, more than twice what it usually is (it’s usually a bit more than the raise). But the raise is basically the same as usual. Maybe a teeny bit better. I’d much rather have a bigger raise and a smaller bonus. I did say that to my manager, as well as the fact that given inflation the raise is not even COL, was disappointing. Not sure that’ll do anything but I honestly have no idea what my coworkers are paid…I don’t interact with any other people in my position who are in the US, and salaries I’ve seen elsewhere have a very wide range. ….the bonus is very nice though.
Being periodically supplied with an assortment of pickles sounds like a valuable service.
Raises that don't cover COL suck. Yay bonus, though!
Wait, actual interior design not just fantasy? I don't know if my brain can encompass that.
Sorry that class is like that, Jess. That everything-is-a-trick-question feeling sounds familiar and bad.
Go msbelle with the practical budget stuff!
Moving that one weekly meeting from Tuesday to Monday has thrown me for a loop, y'all!
I like Retro Sockhop.
That was also nice.

Certainly there has to be a pickle subscription service out there.
Timelies all!
Tired. In fact I'm so tired I put on two different earrings.By the time I realized it, I was in my car. Well, it's not like anyone besides me noticed...
I've done that, so don't feel too bad. Luckily, earrings aren't an absolute necessity. I also once managed to put on a skirt SIDEWAYS (I went to put my hand in my pocket and it was in front, rather than the side. Kind of a marsupial effect.
Best pickle of the month clubs
Well, that lead me to Olympia Provisions and I just ordered pickled onions, Summer Sausage and something called Kasekrainer: [link]
I wasn't planning on placing an order of sausages and pickles today...
