Someone doesn't like the amount of time the drones waste spend online at work, so I haven't been visiting LJ as much as I'd like. If something significant is going on in your life, and you think I should know about it, try something crazy: Tell me!

(Just kidding. I do the same thing, and I'll continue to. [livejournal.com profile] toasterbath always says, "If you're my friend, TELL me what's going on. Don't make me go read it on your stupid website.")

I successfully lobbied to keep my Pandora window up. The only bad thing about hearing Front 242's "Sacrifice" is that just about anything that comes after it sounds weak.

How dumb do you have to be to spray an inappropriate email forward at work? I mean, if your workplace made it absolutely clear in words and actions (like, say, instantly firing someone for it a few months back), wouldn't you get the hint? Here's the twist: The employee they fired was male. This one's a woman. She won't get canned, though I'm sure a sentence like "That 300lb bitch is starting to look hot" would get me booted to Research Triangle Park. (Incidentally, there are at least two 300-pound women here, neither of which was the sender, and one of which is a director.) Enh. Maybe that guy was a jerk, and they just needed an excuse.

Uhhhh... you mean she forwarded that comment to everyone? At work? Wow.

You make the RTP sound like some sort of techno-ghetto, BTW. I'm feeling very fragile, and you just hurt my feelings.

It definitely went to several departments, and it hit at least one 300-pounder, I can assure you.

I meant no offense to RTP -- I was just saying they'd kick me out so hard, that's where I'd land. :)

Can anybody actually look "hot" at 300 pounds?

This is a question we do not ask the World Wide Web.

I retract my previous question, your honor.

"I wash myself with a rag on a stick..."

Keep that phrase out of your company emails, BTW. At least for a while.

Dude, winter is coming. I wish I could find a way to get my ass kicked to RTP!

That's my rule as well. Besides, I save all the juicy stuff for just my close RL friends. :)
