Aphorism
You know that old saying, “Work smarter, not harder”?
You ever use it on someone and then wonder why they looked pissed?
You just told them that they’re working stupid.
I hate my boss.

I’m at that sweet spot in the pain med where my mind is clear but the pain hasn’t come back yet. I’ll take advantage of it to make a brief update. Yesterday I hurt. There was one thought in my mind, and that was the countdown until I could go home. I had one last…

Well, the tour I did yesterday went well. At least, I think it did. Nobody complained, and that’s at least a 90% success rating in my book. One unfortunate problem I ran into had to do with the facemask I now need to wear in many areas of the company I work for. I’m immunosuppressed,…

I dyed my hair again. It’s been a month since the initial experiment, and all the rinse had washed out of my hair. The grey was back, accusing and surly as ever. I stepped up from a level 1 washes-out-in-a-month to a level 2 washes-out-in-about-two-months deal. The stuff was a tad more complicated to use,…

It’s difficult to decide what to write about today. ~â¢~ There’s the case of the Mysterious Smoking Pan. The Professor wanted batter fried fish last night, which is something I know how to make on a theoretical level only. I grabbed the largest frying pan we had though, and set out to experiment, after warning…
I empathize. My "boss" is pretty darned stupid, too. Probably the worst part is her blatant hyprocracy. That one is REALLY hard to take in silence. She spouts off about how "wonderful" Trump is and all sorts of Republican rhetoric ALL THE TIME. Then she demands that the rest of us NEVER discuss politics AT ALL. She stopped me from even saying that I grew up in a bi-partisan household last week! Just a year ago her husband’s life was saved when he had half his kidney removed because it had malignant tumors. He was STILL in the hospital (on Medicaid’s dime) when she voted a straight Republican ticket, all the way from Trump on down. And boy-oh-boy was she happy when her Medicare kicked in! Hypocrites are the WORST!
