@notaclevername: I never really loved my job, but it's become where health insurance, decent pay, and the fact that I have more autonomy than I've ever had in a job just isn't enough anymore. Ie, I can't overlook the dysfunction, inefficiency, and complete lack of challenge and pretend everything is cool. Read more

@Scoregasm: Yeah, it's horrifying. I've become less competent since I've started working here because I don't give a shit and I don't think it makes a fucking difference. I mean, I used to keep my inbox completely cleared out, my desk was spotless, I would file everything, and now I'm just depressed by the whole… Read more

@Breamworthy: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH. What did you do??? Read more

@skinnybonejones: Well, I'm not sure about the trade-off; I definitely get more stuff dumped on me. But I saw what happened to two people in this office that weren't sweet, and it was pretty brutal. Read more

@Scoregasm: Also, the tech person for New Innovations is here in our office and I hear her on the phone with a certain person whose name starts with an "E" from time to time. You can tell that she's screaming inside because the woman's so clueless. Read more

@Scoregasm: OHHHHH GOD I HATE THEM. Did you know that the administrator was named the best MU administrative employee a couple of years ago? Our finance director still bitches about that, because it's unbelievable. The worst is that I'll send an email and not hear back from them for weeks, and then I'll get an… Read more

@Political Party Girl: I think I might take one of those next week...I'm so sad; I noticed on my paycheck that I haven't taken a sick day since November, and though, "Hm, I think it's about time for me to take an unscheduled day off." Read more

@Scoregasm: The good thing is that a lot of people who work here are functionally retarded, so I can back off my own work and fuck around on the internet half the day and STILL get more done than they do. Read more

@LadySkittlehattington: I'm here! Just actually doing work. Read more

@Scoregasm: Did you ever have to deal with anybody in a certain department that begins with an "Oph" and ends with a "thalmology"? The worst. Read more

@skinnybonejones: I tried to do that when I first started working here, but I really can't. Especially since a lot of the reason why I've gotten raises and promotions is because I'm so "sweet" and professional. Read more

@solaana: Ha! Sounds like my job. Read more

Goddamn, I have SUCH a crush on Eliza Dushku. Read more

@braak: I didn't know that about the Greeks. That's really cool. This doesn't have any bearing either, but goat tastes like gamey lamb. I could've eaten a lot of it if I hadn't smelled it cooking, but since I did, it kind of made me sick. Read more

@braak: YES! Thank you. I forgot. Read more

@entonces: I want to go to Spain!!!! Read more

@entonces: Yes, and proper methods of slaughter. From what I understand from my Muslim and Jewish friends is that kosher food is also halal, but halal food isn't necessarily kosher. Read more

Also, hugs to all my sisters. I am so tired of these things happening, but I am glad that you're able to tell your stories. Read more

@TriedandTrue: Is it safe if I send you a Facebook message about this? Read more

@onthecornerofparkerandwoolf: I'm sure a lot of people gave you great advice, but I just wanted to wish you luck. Read more
