Well, I just got off an interview.

I should receive an offer letter before the end of the day.

Please gods, let this happen.

I SO WANT TO TELL MY BOSS OFF.

So now, work has taken away two holidays, on top of screwing everyone with the work load.

People are getting snarky and pushing back in chat (people that aren't me!).

It's like they are TRYING to implode.

@sunny I apparently can't take non "huge rips" from the bong - so I end up out of my gourd.

So.. I am trying some pens, and edibles.. and maybe this.

@sunny I'm not worried about some minimal THC. I need something to help with the pain that's not getting me stoned out of my mind.

@sunny What roller do you use? (She asks, trying not to get her hopes up)

When someone you super enjoyed connecting with on a game...finds you off game because you fell off (damn work). It makes me happy.

I had a surgery go way wrong, and ended up in sudden menopause waaaaaay too young. HRT has saved lives... mainly those around me, because I woulda killed someone.

I took today off. I decided to throw my boss off. Called him.

M: Hey. I did the measurements, I need like 60 ft of Cat6.
B:..oh, okay! I appreciate you calling me.

1 hr later

M: Hey, if they want me to buy it, and the clips I will need, and reimburse me, I'm down for that, too. Amazon has some stuff that's got a coupon on it, and it'll get here faster than anything IT sends me.

B: Oh! Sure, I'll let you know.

He is so confused. He asked me if I was all right, calling him when I took the day off.

So this came up in a conversation with someone who doesn't MSB. Is there a.. instruction manual for Ares, anywhere, if he wants to set up a game?

@derp This is the contractual obligations panic part. They effed up big, and now they're pulling in people from other departments to try and Cover their asses.

The job hunt continues, my friends. If anyone hears of remote customer service/low level IT jobs, let me know lol

They have herded us all into one chat. They want me to tell them when I am going off queue to type up the rest of my call notes (because nine seconds between calls is not enough when software is slower than molasses). I am supposed to tell them when I am going off queue for the rest room, etc. ( I am not a kid in school nor am I in prison, thanks. I need to pee, I'm going to go do it, and they can SMD)

They're trying to humiliate people who are off queue by calling them out in this chat.

We're not TRAINED for this job. People are QUITTING over this

My immediate boss to me: Macha, I know, just... just please don't say anything in the chat. Let them hang themselves with their unprofessional conduct. There are things being handled behind the scenes.

Me: I have other teammates in tears because they're being hounded, they don't know how to use this new software (I have some less tech-friendly teammates), they weren't trained on how to use it. And you want me to say nothing? You say it's being handled. When you KNOW how things have been handled around me since this all started? I'm supposed to TRUST something is going to be done? ... And here I thought you'd met me.

It's one thing for them to screw me over, and screw me around. But when my sweetest teammates are in tears and feeling sick over all this? Naw. Just naw.

They're creating more and more chats to clog up my sidebar on Teams.

But every time they try to push or pressure me? I sit back, have some beverage, and take my sweet damned time to GAF.

And I am currently having a sing a long with the Clash.

I took all the pathetic amount of PTO I had today, I have tomorrow off, and I ordered pad Thai as comfort. I ordered the veggie pad thai, because it's been so good. But this time, there was like.. three tiny bits of broccoli, some chunks of.. something, and none of the baby bok chois I like so much.

I might blow off a half day and spend it in the sunshine.

@ganymede Completely unrelated .... good kitty.

My PCP said my ECG looked good, so here's hoping the ADHD meds are in my future.

@ominous Yeah, but you never invited me, so..

It's been three years already?

Annnnnnnnd I just found out I did not get the job I interviewed for almost 2 weeks ago.

Booze is on the menu tonight.

@greenflashlight Apparently they thought so, yeah.
