I have to make a dentist appointment, but I'm not sure when my jaw will loosen up enough to make that work...
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Plus: I thought that the youth of today was supposed to be MORE tech savvy - why is the youth that I work with less?
About the phone? The youth of today don't use phones -- at least not for talking. Is the stereotype.

Dear Student: When there is a hold on your account, do not come into my office and ask me why. And then when I say "you owe us money", have the response be "so, I can just go pay that right now, right?" WTF? If you have the money, why didn't you pay it EONS ago, like WHEN YOU GOT THE EFFING BILL!!!!!

Or their computers. . . there was an issue earlier where we were reimaging the computers and I told everyone to move anything they wanted to keep to the share (networked) drive or to a disk or flashdrive and more than one lost all their work because they moved t hings to a folder on their desktop.

OK, here's why I actually love my job. I was thinking, Should I work late again tonight, I really don't feel like it, need to go to the drug store, wah wah wah. And then I remembered that here, "late" is 5:30. That is not late! Not when I get here at 9!

Misha Collins is also batshit insane and a fandom nutter. He was an intern at the White House, worked at NPR, is a published poet, heads a charity, is a distance runner, and enjoys working fans into a complete lather by being a crazy person. I might fangirl him a wee bit.
Married his high school sweetheart, who is herself a published author of a very instructive how-to manual.

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

Wow nice! I'm usually one of the last people leaving here 5:40 - 6 usually but I'm also one of the last getting in, I think.

I have a totally irrational thing about working hours, like, I think I am the only person who works them. I officially work 8-5 (we have to take an hour for lunch, and no we do not get paid for it). I am usually in by 7:45, and often enough nobody else is here until 9:30. I leave at 5, and I am rarely the first to leave. Now, I know that we have flexible schedules, because we work one night a week and people flex for teaching evening classes, but it totally makes me feel like I am the only person who is enough of a sucker to actually work the hours I am supposed to.
