I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

This is a fun time to be working in Supply Chain analysis, as you might guess, especially with some but not all of our factories in China. But aside from that, I am starting to think that maybe Oracle software kind of sucks? It could be that our implementation is just bad, I suppose.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just did my taxes finally, and reallllly hesitated before putting in my bank account info, and I already regret it.

Okay, super tasty, high-protein, high-fiber lunch that's low on the starchy carbs: (1) large can of chicken, (2) can of diced tomatoes, (3) can of pinto beans, (4) tiny can of corn. Mix in bowl. Season how you like. Makes at least 4 servings by itself (or 3 if you're starving). Or you could throw it on some rice or a salad or whatever. So fucking good.

Steph, do you cook this at all or no?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Steph, do you cook this at all or no?

I didn't, but there's no reason you couldn't. Since the canned chicken is fully cooked, I was too lazy to heat it up. If I had it over rice, I would heat it up.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

ltc just told me that a boy in her class was rating the girls beauty on a scale of 1-5. He needs a girlfriend who’s a 5 and wanted to make sure ltc knew she was only a 3 and that her friend was only a 1. WTF 8 year old boy?!? I am so filled with rage right now.

Thank you for all reacting that strongly because I wanted to make sure I wasn’t overreacting. I have already sent an email with the specifics to her teacher, who is absolutely lovely, so hopefully the situation will be dealt with.
