constant sound of a buzz saw coming from the back of that room, and outside the store there were plastic tubs holding wrapped packages of ground turkey. Outside. In the hot weather and direct sun.

Raise your hand if you feel like spoiled turkey is the best case scenario for what's going on here.

It feels like the Pork Store from the Sopranos got a new location.(Except Satriale's had a nice deli in the front.) I am just...always angry. Not to mention the fact that I have forgotten what happiness or hope for the future might have felt like way before this(Don't worry, to fill the hole, I've got workshops and a bunch of thankless labor on the phones) Not to mention, even if they left it alone, Medicaid sucks. So being disabled and winning would have felt like losing.(Still better than turning folks loose to forage, or whatever they think will happen, but it's a stingy, miserable experience.)

Scare quotes seem like they might be appropriate for the "ground turkey."

Ugh, Epic! I'm sorry.

Oh, no, Epic. I am so sorry.

Yeah, Epic, I saw that after my rant. Tough break.

Aw Epic, I'm sorry.

Motherfuckers!

All the hugs and love to you, Epic.

Damn, Epic. That's just not fair.

We opened our last show of the season last night and now it's self evaluation time (technically due yesterday). Is it not enough to have made it through another season? Categories I have to respond to are: Accomplishments, Challenges, IDEAA objectives (our EDI), Management Successes, and Goals for Management Improvement. This always feels like the thing I am least capable of doing.
