I just want the gourmet cafeterias and onsite cleaners. Or am I confusing with Google?

You're confusing with Google. We have cafeterias with some decent food stations (the ones run by outside resturants), and no onsite cleaners.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Ha! We have a microwave, a toaster oven AND an actual toaster. Oh, the luxury.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I work for a software company. We have a microwave AND a toaster oven.

Me too! Except we have no toaster oven.

OTOH, we are very tiny.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You can get Google in LA too!

Now I'm pondering keeping this hair for more than a few weeks. I'm going to get my brows done and see how that makes me feel about the look.

We don't either although we do have a toaster. And a Very Fancy coffee machine.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

OK, serious question...

Is there a way for me to address the issue of people using strongly scented perfumes, lotions, etc. in this office without seeming like a pissy little whiner?

Because the fabric softener scent is so strong it's leaving me with burning eyes and a stuffy nose, and there's a community chaplain who comes in once a week whose perfume is nearly as bad. I don't know why it's bugging me so much. I didn't used to be this sensitive, and I don't want to be a whiny little brat about it. But I'm physically uncomfortable, and I keep hoping the pager will start going off so she'll have to leave and I can get some unscented air.
