Now tagless for your comfort.

DH's boss was shocked to find out he was still on a desktop. DH finally got one for him and his staff a couple of weeks ago.

I have a budget meeting for the non profit I'm volunteering for and I hate those things. Non profits in general are on the ropes lately and I hate begging for money.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Not begging! Giving people the opportunity to support work they think is important, but can't do themselves!! t /fundraising evangelist knee-jerk

I wish it was regular fund raising! Donors, I can deal with. Our major funding source is United Way so I have to go through them. They're threatening to cut it all so we're essentially begging them not to.

There will be begging. But they do support us. It's just a struggle to prove to them how much we're needed.

Oh, that's even less begging. That is a business negotiation, making a case.

That's a good point. I need to be in a positive mode for this. Still, it would be awesome if you could make it here for the meeting!

Heh. I'm not saying United Way won't make you feel like crap, but that's on them. Effing UW.

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 need a desktop for work, because I need my four monitors.

I usually bring my MacBook Pro to work with me to fulfill music duties.

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

You're in the 20th century, is what you are. What happens if there's a disaster and you can't get into the office? What then?
