I do not remember now how we got onto the subject, but my dad just told me that some guy he used to deliver the Oakland Tribune to when he was 12 years old still owes him $2.80. I don't think he's ever seen Better Off Dead or would particularly enjoy it, but I am finding that hilarious!

Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
So, I, like, pretty abruptly quit my job.
I made my 10 years with the state and was going to do home health for a little more flexibility, but then DH got laid off, and then I was working full time hours plus paperwork in the evening, but due to various bullshit, getting paid less than I would working full time at the gas station down the street, plus not being able to leave work at work.
I get up to 2 weeks of Goblin Mode before I need to get my shit together.
So, go team "Not Really Okay At All"?
Oh my, Debet! Goblin Mode definitely sounds warranted. I'm so sorry you got put in that position.
Oof, Tom and Debet. I want the universe to stop messing around with Buffistas. I have a list of people that should have bad things happen to them, where can I submit that?
Would it help anyone at all to know that a new penguin species was discovered recently?
Oh, wow! I had no idea there was penguin species controversy, I feel so enriched!
Eek, Debet, good luck!! I have a friend who does SLP home health, there seems to be a lot of BS around travel time and what gets paid but otherwise she seems to like it a lot.
Yeah, under other circumstances it probably would have been great, but there was just way too much that was Not The Thing
A million years ago I worked in Payroll for a home health company and figuring out travel reimbursements and overtime and who got paid how was super complicated. And I assume differs by state, as most employment stuff does. But I can't imagine it's ever simple and straightforward.
Good lord, that was literally in the last century.
