Natter 71: Someone is wrong on the Internet
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
just on cue, turd mac shows up in full force for the last day of vaca. TURD.
Geez Sue!
So, I have to work this weekend, but Beau and I are going on "vacation" next weekend, so I have to work to be ready for vacation!
This is funny, in a facepalm/headdesk way.
So Management has discovered, via the new improved employee survey, that while most of us like our company and our jobs, there's a serious problem with lack of communication and perceived lack of respect. So they had a Big Meeting today and everybody in the whole Publishing Department was required to attend. This was All About Communication. They spent three hours giving us details on all the projects going on (and one guy included the tidbit that all our competitors outsource their publishing services 100%; well that's comforting) then BigBoss opened the floor to comments and questions, with "no fear of repercussions". (Uh-huh.) Three people spoke up, with reasonable complaints/suggestions. The answers were "Well, my job is HARD, and we can't hire anyone, and we're trying REAL HARD to make the new schedule work, so... yeah." (BigBoss actually told us that her job was HARD. ooh, sympathies.)
Anyway, meeting All About Communication. One thing mentioned during was the "user story form" for reporting problems with the software. I never heard of it. Checked with my team members after, they never heard of it. Emailed my supervisor (notorious for Not Telling Us Shit) to ask about it.
She forwarded to us an email she received six weeks ago about the new user story form, that she never mentioned in the six team meetings since then. And told us we'd talk about it later.
COMMUNICATION, WE HAZ IT NOT.
DAMN IT! I was trying to pit an avocado and stabbed myself in the left palm. I don't think there's any nerve damage, but that fucker went in deep.

Keep it clean. Puncture wounds get infected BAD.
Get it looked at. If it's that deep it may need a stitch or two.
Will do. I have been liberal with the Neosporin and oversized bandaid. Fortunately it's not a wide cut (about a quarter-inch triangle of metal penetrated), so I think if I can keep the edges tight together it should seal up pretty well.
ISTR Neosporin is okay for shallow wounds, but not puncture wounds. Also, probably best to get a tetanus booster.
Hmm. I'd be a lot more annoyed by the brownout that's happening, and prevented us from watching DVDs, except apparently the Internet still works even if none of the lights do....
