Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

JZ does the reorg help get you away from jerk-ass doctor at all? Or are you still stuck with her (him)? Boo on increased workload but yay! for no lay off.

I am glad you are still employed, JZ, but I am increasingly irritated at employers who cut so deep they have to increase workload without compensation. The math says workers are being robbed. I dislike large numbers of citizens being stolen from.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Our wings are not tired.

WHEW, JZ! Although, what others said about the reorg and extracting far too much from the staying employees...

And YAY cousin Shadow! So happy for you!!
