I wonder just how much the wing-nuts can piss off their own caucus before five Republicans say "fuck it" and switch parties.

Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
We got an email that IT is working on it, it's not that we're all getting locked out on purpose. So that's something.
That's a nice thought, Tom. I'm worried that it'll swing the other way and we'll have even more gridlock and obstruction for two years. BTDT do not want another t-shirt.
Fingers crossed, I guess.
They were saying that if some number of Republicans voted present (maybe 10?), then Hakeem Jeffries would end up the speaker. Not going to happen, but nice to dream.
Yes, I've had a supremely embarrassing life, but not like Kevin McCarthy today.
I *think* I have completed my self-appraisal? The instructions say to press the green send button and there is no green send button (I confirmed another coworker does not see one either, it's not just me). One day before the deadline!
Starting on January 1st companies advertising for jobs in California and Washington (and Colorado was already doing this) and NYC are all supposed to list a salary range on their job posting. There are definitely more than there used to be, but many companies still aren't (including mine, grr! I want to see where I fall!)
Ooh, interesting!
Happy birthday, Shrift!
We’re sort of easing back to work at my office. No meetings today, one tomorrow, and next week is chock full.
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday shrift!
Another day, another colossal meltdown. It started when Mr. S tried to lock me in his room, and got aggressive when I got out. He got more and more violently aggressive when I repeatedly told him I was not going into the back of his room, because I didn't trust him. I locked him in his room to cool down, and he threw his tablet out the window, breaking it. This was followed by nearly everything else in his room. Called 911, and the police ended up taking him to the ER. Gary went over there. We'll see what comes of this, because the last week or so has shown that Mr. S can't seem to stay in control at home.
