Yeah, what a loser. Probably all that unemployment time.

The irony being that my posts-per-day has gone down a few ticks since we moved.

I found out the person Im sitting next to at work is a huge Penguins fan. He is also cool in other ways.

I just hope he doesn't think in dumb or dull. I'm having anxiety about it.

Had my alarm set for my short week so I was an hour late for work today. Rare slip for me, and I'm sure people think it's because I'm leaving and give no ****.

But then, a co-worker brought me some venison backstrap so I think the day has evened out thus far.

Both can be true.

Lazy government employee casually shows up late? No way...

Let the record show I charged an hour of leave for the time I missed.

So that's it...today's the big day (I guess...as he just left for good). The guy that was here for 17 years is out, and I'm in as Director of the largest department in the company...feels...the same. I'm just sitting at my desk continuing to do my work. I feel like something else should be happening, but I guess not...

Lazy government employee casually shows up late and succumbs to peer pressure from random strangers on the Internet?

I'm less than a year away from 'tenure' now, so you just wait and see what 2018 brings.

Will you be there with open arms and open eyes?

Postby **dodint** » Fri Oct 28, 2016 11:44 am

We're done now.

I knew that the second I hit "Submit".

Got about $1600 of fraudulent charges on my company card. To whomever had a field day in Texas, including a 1k stay at the Embassy Suites, on the company dime: Good on you.

Is this an Incubus reference?

You know damn well that it is.

One doesn't want to presume one straight man is invoking Incubus to another straight man without clarification.

It's dodint's favorite band, so I found it quite appropriate.

Postby **dodint** » Fri Oct 28, 2016 2:29 pm

Never heard of it.

Was that in that early 2000s pack of trash bands like Limp Biscuit, Tool, and such?

Postby **NTP66** » Fri Oct 28, 2016 2:30 pm

I am genuinely glad to see Tool associated with "trash bands".

Postby **dodint** » Fri Oct 28, 2016 2:31 pm

I was trying to think of Papa Roach but it wouldn't come to me.

Postby **tifosi77** » Fri Oct 28, 2016 2:32 pm

Tool........ trash band.......... what the actual ****?!

Postby **NTP66** » Fri Oct 28, 2016 2:32 pm

They belong on that list, as well.
