Feels like being marooned, not on the Planet of the Apes (actually, that was this one, wasn't it ?), but more the planet of the Pigs ...

don't change a person's work schedule without informing them that you've done so, then maybe they'd show up on time for their shift....that's twice now that my shift has been changed during my day's off without so much as a phone call telling me about the change, so today i was an hour late because i was supposed to start at 11, and they changed my shift to 6am....i just happened to be on the way in because i had to get a ride with my sister....

When a volunteer gig gets a 7 hour Sunday rehearsal... Come onnnn. I know I had nothing on my calendar for that day, but I shouldn't have to spell out "Day o' Rest!" haha.

Topics that are discussed ad nauseam with no useful conclusion other than the reaffirming of ones personal victimization beliefs.


Walking, stumbling on these shadowfeet

Part of the seduction of most religions is the idea that if you just say the right things and believe really hard, your salvation will be at hand.

With Jediism. No one is coming to save you. You have to get off your ass and do it yourself - Me

When I'm rockin' out to Amazon Prime's 80's Rock Ballads on my work computer and my coworkers keep calling my desk to interrupt. Don't you realize how rude it is to interfere with Warrant, Journey and Foreigner?

How do you expect others to trust you if you keep undermining their authority and circumvent the chain of command.

Don't tell me you're going to let me handle something and then go off on a rant before I can get it done.

If I tell you something as an FYI, let the situation play out. STOP MICROMANAGING!!!!!

One day you WILL be charged with harassment and creating a hostile work environment!

Those moments of clarity that allow one to comprehend - if only briefly - just how f*cked up things really are ... :S

When the bank tells you to stop having your people write on the money, STOP! When the bank tells you that you can only deposit checks made out to the name of your organization, TELL PEOPLE TO MAKE THE CHECKS OUT TO THE NAME OF YOUR ORGANIZATION! You get a little slack for being a charity and a little more for being run by students, but that slack ran out last year, you know, the second year in a row we had to tell you these things (that I know of because I've only worked for the bank for a two and a half years).

How can a TV news station show pictures of a massive terror attack and then interrupt the program for an ALDI Christmas turkey ad?
