Ann, that's a ferret.
I wish I'd seen tommyrot's link before I took the BBC's weekly news quiz. It had a question on that story. I got it wrong.

msbelle, is there any way for you to leave work early and enjoy some more of the day to yourself?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I hate my job today. Because nobody else is in today, everyone thinks that I can fix their problems for them. I definitely will be leaving early, though.

not really. Since I am a non-exempt employee I have to clock in and out, so I need to hit 35 hours for the week. With the court hearing on Tuesday, I lost about 3 hours. I managed 8+ on Wednesday, but need to get in over 7 today.
It'll be ok. There's only like 4 people in, so I should be able to crank through some stuff and probably get some personal things done like reimbursables and some shopping nearby during lunch.

for people who have little kids on their list, there are some really cute shirts. If you've never been to the site before, it's best to search by size, so you only see what is available, since many designs are not available in all sizes.
Anyone finding good deals online?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It is deathly quiet here. I've never arrived before my boss before. I love these sorts of days.
