Not exactly what I was looking for, but not bad. They'll work. Actually, I got two pair, but you can't really count the ones with the sequins all over them. They have limited utility. What can I say? I'm a redneck. We like shiny things. 
I know Dingbat Fatigue, but it comes in all forms, you know. My managers are engineers, so they might be a little different. (I can see sharkey rolling his eyes, LOL!) We have to go through so much ethics training, that managers where I work can't even look cross-eyed at an employee or they can get in trouble. Our next big awareness training is harassment and intimidation. And this has nothing to do with the Union. It all flows down from the highest levels of management. I think it might be going to extremes though, but I think it's all good, because there are a lot of neanderthals still out there!
(Hope you got some good music for your party tonight! I put on some Talking Heads this morning to get me out of this funk. The last song is Take Me to the River. You'd like the first one: Psycho Killer. LOL!!!)
No, I don't think you quite grasp the dingbat problem. There are bad bosses, not quite up to the job supervisors, absent-minded airheads, insufferable boors, complete a$$holes, dumb@ss buffoons and arrogant, self-absorbed jerks, but this woman is in a league all her own. This woman is such an idiot, it is truly amazing that she can remember to breathe. Spend 10 minutes with her and you can come up with 15 more definitions each of the words "incompetent, annoying, ignorant and infuriating."
I like that! I tend to follow bright shiny objects myself. LOL! Glad you found some brown dress shoes. I went out this morning for some "retail therapy" after I dropped one of my sons off at the computer center. I bought too many dress cowboy boots and clothes this year already.
Where I work, the managers can't get away with that anymore. Can't everyone file a complaint? That's the State, isn't it?
Hi, Restie,
What have you been up to? How's your redecorating coming along?
Still waiting to make a connection with one of my friends to help me...
In the mean time I have trouble sleeping it seems I am up all night and sleep all day...
it is awful!
I usually sleep like a rock. But Thurs I couldn't sleep either. No problem again last night! LOL!
If you stay up all night, what are you getting out of staying up all night. There must be a payoff. If I didn't have to work days, I would probably stay up all night, too. I have always been a night person. LOL!!!!
Everyone has been complaining for months. The problem is, her supervisor is in another county, 2 1/2 hours away, and doesn't have to look at her, listen to her, do her job and fix her screw ups day in and day out. It won't be until her incompetance causes major problems for HER supervisor that anything is likely to acutally be done. Anyone who has had dealings with her for more than 5 minutes knows she's a complete idiot.
I used to stay up all night all the time. When there were kids in the house, it was the only way I got anything done!
BBL
I read your post to me Libby, and my Doc is a female Gestapo Agent. I don't think we're going to get along too well...:(
She's one of these females...tall, erect, really skinny and could be really straight-armed I fear. I don't know how she'll last with me...lol.
You need to slip her some of your "special" medicine; loosen her up a little.
Hmmmmmmmmmm...I don't think this gal would go for any hanky panky, and she's going to be a killer about my smoking.
All she needs with that accent is a mustache. ;)
That's it, isn't it? Unless her incompetence causes major problems for her supervisor. I had one like that in flight test, during the 35,000+ layoffs after 911. He could be as much an a$$hole as he wanted, because he knew if you crossed him, he could get you layed off. The guy had an "in" with his upper management so he was safe.
Sometimes things aren't fair. I got out of there ASAP, and never looked back. I ran into him once, but I didn't give him the time of day because I had moved up in the Company and he hadn't moved one bit. LOL!!! Things do have a way of working out eventually if your intentions are good! LOL!!! We should always keep that in mind, you think?

Grannie,
Browse this one for a few more ideas. It has a great collection of photos, especially when you get to the national parks and capitol reef.
Lovely Pic.
Good to hearing you're feeling better .. you take good care of yourself Gran
Oh, I don't expect it will go on forever. Her time will run out, just hopefully before a kid dies as a result of her stupidity.
Oh, hope that never happens. I know I have hear that social services is always understaffed and overworked. YOu have to make sure that you always CYA or you could be the fall guy.
