I feel like they are having me do the coordinating between their departments, and no. Just no.

I have to coordinate everything that goes up, I do not also have time to coordinate between PR and Marketing. I won't do it.

Well, maybe for more money I would.

I'm with you Daisy. I am in a similar position between the finance department and the education department. I can't have access to the ledgers or anything financial, but yet the finance dept ASKS ME HOW MUCH TEACHERS SHOULD BE PAID!!!!!. And then the education department wants me to make sure they have been paid, BUT I DON'T SEE THE LEDGERS. Dudes, you need to talk to each other and keep me the fuck out of it, or let me have access to the information.

I want to say that I think, after a series of many emails with me just restating procedure, we have it sorted.

Of course I say that every week, so...

ETA: I don't know that seeing any information would help me, except that if Marketing asked me to put something up that didn't include an event, I would be able to ask if that wasn't overlooked, but you know what? I don't get paid enough to have the responsibility to remember to coordinate that when I get paid just enough to have the responsibility to coordinate online content.

Oh, dear. I thought it was a cinammon-raisin bagel, but it turns out to be a chocolate chip bagel. I feel dirty.

Also cranky and cold. This is the worst migraine I've had at work. But thankfully the nausea is surmountable. Ish. I wonder if I can power through lunch and leave at 2.

I thought it was a cinammon-raisin bagel, but it turns out to be a chocolate chip bagel. I feel dirty.

I hate when that happens. Like when I thought it was strawberry cream cheese and it turned out to be smoked salmon cream cheese.

'Thatcher dead' text sparks fears

A misconstrued text message announcing the passing of a beloved pet has sparked a flurry of diplomatic activity in Canada.

Transport Minister John Baird sent a message reading: "Thatcher has died".

Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper was soon informed that 84-year-old former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher had passed away.

But it was actually Mr Baird's beloved cat, named after his political heroine, who had died.

Poor Thatcher....

"Chef put Basil in the ratatouille!"

a chocolate chip bagel. I feel dirty.

it's almost a muffin at that point.

I thought it was strawberry cream cheese and it turned out to be smoked salmon cream cheese.

strawberry and cream cheese should only be together in a dessert. ijs

Random news from the UK:

Man uses remote to control his 'bionic bottom'

Ged Galvin, 55, now presses a remote control to open his bowels and go to the toilet.

The IT project manager from Barnsley, south Yorkshire, almost died when an off-duty police officer pulled out in front of him in her car.

Mr Galvin suffered massive internal injuries and had to be fitted with a colostomy bag until surgeons at the Royal London Hospital could perform the complex operation to rebuild his bottom.

The medical team took a muscle from above his knee, wrapped it around his sphincter, and then attached electrodes to the nerves.

These are now operated by a palm-sized remote control that he carries in his pocket.

“It’s like a chubby little mobile phone,” he said. “You switch it on and off, just like switching on the TV.

“They call me the man with the bionic bottom, but that doesn’t bother me. My gratitude to the surgeons is endless because what they have done is a miracle.”

I wonder if there's an iPhone app for that....
