Eeee, bitty bat bead! Love.
I once had an employee who fell asleep at customer sites sitting in front of the computer, and kept resetting his network account to admin privileges, and I couldn't get him fired
Oh, ffs.
Call me weird. I hate unsupportive management who's perfectly happy to let you do the grunt work, but act on anything? Nah.
I'll go with whatever the final decision is and make the best of it, but I've made my recommendation and documented the living shit out of it. No one would blame us, except maybe him.
I had an employee who used to fall asleep at his work station. Turned out he was narcoleptic. Not the best thing to be when you work in an electronics repair shop.
My hawmps. My hawmps. My lovely camel hawmps.
I was on a blood pressure drug for a while that I had to take four times a day that unfailingly put me to sleep an hour after taking it. I had to juggle driving around that damned thing and just warned my supervisor that at such and such a clock I would be asleep for 15 minutes. Fortunately, it wasn't an awareness-sensitive job.
If my boss had thought that not sending him to customer sites was a partial solution, that would have been a start. But she was a royal douchenozzle who didn't blame him for repeatedly trying to hack the network security, but blamed me for Flash pages being unindexed by search engines (it was 2001. Of course that was my fault).
God, I've had some not good bosses since then, but please never let one be that bad again.
Her niece is engaged to be married soon, and I've committed to going to the wedding, and it will be the first time I've seen her stank ass in 10 years and I'm already mad about the idea.
My co-worker brought in donut holes today, and encouraged us to "be bad" by eating them.
I hate it when people say that about eating. Be "bad" by doing something without which your body will eventually die! Also, I hate it because it's such a banal definition of "bad." There's Bernie Madoff, and then there's my co-worker eating one donut hole.
However! I *did* realize there is one circumstance in which I will accept -- nay, *promote* -- the definition of eating a donut hole as "bad."
SHAFT eats a donut hole.

Indeed.
In semi-related news, I'm stepping back into fatosphere politics for a while by posting a link to a Paul Campos article about the bullshittery surrounding the Paula Deen/diabetes/butter cookery shenanigans happening this week. The villianizing is SO GROSS and sexist and classist and elitist and I hate that I've been so cowardly in (barely) pointing it out in my little corner of the internets. And I'm stressed that I put the Paul Campos article out there at all!
I don't know why I'm so intense about this right now.
