@haroon Keeping your boss up to date protect you. Call him then send him a follow up email summarizing your call to him. Result: he knows and can agree or disagree with you and you have a paper trail so nothing is hidden nor can be changed easily by others.

No one teaching me this, actually I got whoop several time in office politic because people deliver first interpretation of what I did. This can anticipate that. I really blind with office politic, my early years in office is just learning to stand the pain and just keep move on. This little sweet science can tip the scale for me, thanks BJ

In office politics, the person with the best written notes, emails and chronology of events often wins.

I've been watching Netflix for 3h, and plan another 4h, and I feel my brain melting already.

I rarely seen you in the game thread, maybe try to switch the entertainment and lets butcher some looter in Bannerlord if I may suggest?

this is the reason why I've never gotten netflix. instead, I agonize myself by constantly switching between reading, playing games, streams and youtube videos in a very ADHD way. if our brains were seperate entities, like a homunculus, they would've revolted long ago, I feel

Due to all the rain, my allergies have been bad this week. Only instead of my nose running, it's been my eyes itching constantly. I have woken up every night this week clawing at my eyes. Eye drops aren't helping too much.

Except streaming (like twitch?) you sum up what I'm doing in my leisure time pretty accurately You just need a laptop to do all of those, this is the thing about 2010 that's better than the 90s, laptop and wide-spread internet is a very nice thing.

I can't submit my tax return because IRS has not yet processed my 2018 tax return.

 

[Takhisis]

What's this about a quarantine?

No inter-island travel.
Everyone younger than 18 or older that 60 is confined to their houses.
There's a nighttime curfew for everyone, enforced by roving police patrols.
During the day, there're police roadblocks along the main highway [4 between here and Tagbilaran]. A mayorial "Gate Pass" will let one vehicle through containing one person.
Island City Mall in Tagbilaran is locked down above it's first floor.
The marketplace in Jagna has only on entrance open. You need a Gate Pass to get in.

Oh, Zkrib, you really must be affected by the confinement if you cannot tell when I'm being sarcastic.

Has nothing to do with the variety of digital entertainment, but more with the exclusivity of digital entertainment, I would suspect.
At least I'm not terribly demotivated to do work today, might be better for my brain .

Forgot to post this on Saturday, but there is a cashier at my wal mart that is so annoying that even though her lane was open, we got in line behind someone else at another lane. We pack our own groceries and she has started arguments with us over how to pack them and frequently comments about the things we are buying.

 

[Morty]

Sounds like just the sort of person you should have working on a checkout!!

I love how windows gives me a notification to let me know there aren't any notifications.

You can turn that notification off, but then you will get a 'no notifications notification is turned off' notification.
