Re: A Thread for Random Musings

 

Turns out, this new thing my boss is training me to help him with is going to be all my responsibility in a few more weeks.

 

:nonp:

 

His boss WAS going to dump it all in my lap, all at once.

 

:nonp:

 

I'm glad they have such faith in my abilities, but why can't it just manifest in a nice raise, instead? It'd be awfully spiffy to be paid my worth for what I do.

There's another Ben & Jerry's liqueur flavor, this one with cookie-swirl and little fudge-crunch cows. It's called Vermonty Python.

 

The worst pun since "Cherry Garcia."

But it's GOOD.

 

If you see an obituary of me dead at the age of 45, you'll know why.

Someone cleaned the break room over the weekend, and put up a number of signs cautioning people to clean up after themselves.

 

On sign reads, "Kitchens contain 1242 objects Chuck Norris can use to kill you, including the dishes in this sink. Wash your dishes."

 

Then there's a picture of Chuck Norris, about to deliver a kick. He has a speech bubble: "Your dishes or your life. It's your call."

 

I may be underpaid, but I'm right where I belong. :D

Being in the right environment/job is usually worth more than higher pay.

Generally, yes, though I'm getting tired of eyeing my bank account warily.

 

On the other hand, a co-worker who'd left for higher pay and better benefits at a bigger company visited yesterday, and she remarked that she wished she hadn't left.

"I'm really sorry, but it looks like the test confirmed it, and the cancer is back. But I do have some good news."

"Didja save a bunch of money on your car insurance, doc?"

 

"...If any doctor were to say that they would lose their license immediately. Do you really think that's funny?"

"I'm... I'm just trying to keep my spirits up..."

"Is cancer funny to you? Is cancer FUNNY to you?"

"I'm sorry."

"You SHOULD BE."
