There is no sharing, there is simply the people who work providing for the people that don’t, and then they whine because they don’t get enough...of whatever it is they want this time. Usually my money!
Hobbes, you went through 8 years of WFTD? Holy moses, I bet that was entertaining.
Sweetie, you must be channeling me. You were very much on my mind after that exercise.
How have you been?
(Yes it was...I linked a couple above.)
I think on Fridays, I may go back to 2001 and start bringing a History lesson to class. We never do 350 a day anymore. Real Life..meh.
Oh, BTW. Thanks for putting the Google suggestion in my little pea brain.
OMG. I’m still trying to shower it off.
How have you been?
Yeah, real life is a total "meh". I'm just happy to be working, now if I can just figure out how to do it from home, and only 3 hours a day. lol
Good, Pretty busy.
I work from home on Monday and Friday, which I luv.
xs rides me bc I whine about the three days I have to go into the office.
Part of it is FR is now blocked at work as a ‘Social Networking Site’
Social Networking my @SS. FCOL, I can get Twitter?
It’s a real drag trying to use FR from a BB.
Great tit 'eaten' by killer plant
Somedays, I want to be a headline writer!
They're blocking FR as a social network? Good gravy.
All the training and whatnot I've needed to do lately has had major groups focused at the social media thingy. (rme)
I'm not a fan of the social media thing, and if the stupid twitter email tells me one more time that I have a Direct Message (How?? I don't have an account?!) I am going to ...to ...to.. I don't know what I will do, but it will be drastic! ;-)
LMAO! Saw that this Am.
Maybe you should trick them and start an acct.
Half the students are twittering fools.
Give the world a piece of your mind, 140 characters at a time.
(And TWITTER! that phrase is trademarked an not to be used with out permission of Ricky Bobby Incorporated...lol)
Oh the kids! I had to inform my young admins that cell phone usage at work and especially in meetings was a no, no. Eventually they are just going to be hot wired in and it will be one giant ball of data. (shudders in horror)
LOL, I have not actually seen that movie. But I get the reference, that's the scary thing!
I got into a mild discussion with a new employee at work last night who commented that she had almost voted for John Edwards then proceeded to lecture me later how she was a conservative and a Christian. She also firmly believes that the Bible is full of lies and Newsweek is just a right wing fanatic mag. I think I said “Really?” 5 or 6 times and then just let her talk. She exposed some horrible truths about herself. I told my co-worker, apparently John Edwards is the key to the nutter box so let’s not mention him again.
I warned you.
Dang....
Dang....
I know, right?
I admire your restraint.
I’m learning.
