THIS IS A SHOUTING THREAD MY MANAGER HAS DECIDED TO RE-DO MOST OF MY DESIGN WORK THAT I SLAVED ON OVER THE WEEKEND. SHE THINKS SHE'S A DESIGNER. SHE IS NOT.→[More:]

HER: "WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE NEW DESIGN?"
ME: "IT LOOKS LIKE GEOCITIES"
HER: "WHAT'S GEOCITIES?"
ME: "SURELY YOU'VE HEARD OF GEOCITIES?"
HER: "WELL YES, BUT NOT SINCE 1996"
ME: "EXACTLY..."

I'M WEARING MY NEW CORDUROYS TODAY BECAUSE THEY ARE SOFT AND WARM AND COMFORTING AS I DEAL WITH SOCIETY, WHICH I FEEL LIKE I PRETTY MUCH SUCK AT LATELY.

MY MANAGER QUIT LAST WEEK AND NOW HIS MANAGER IS TRYING TO RUN THE GROUP NOW BUT HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT WE DO.

I DON'T WANT TO BE AT WORK TODAY, I WANT TO BE AT HOME READING MY BOOK, DRINKING HOT CHAI WITH HONEY AND SNUGGLING UNDER A BLANKIE.

I AM MAD BECAUSE MY CORDUROYS ARE DIRTY, AND I WANT TO WEAR THEM FOR ALL THE SAME REASONS CHEWIE MENTIONED!

BUT I'M NOT ALL THAT MAD!

I AM SCARY HAPPY AND THAT IS MAKING ME FEEL KIND OF NEUROTIC BUT OH WELL, IT BEATS THE HELL OUT OF SCARY UNHAPPY, I MUST SAY. AND THE COLD I KEEP ON THINKING I'M ABOUT TO GET KEEPS ON LURKING AROUND BUT NEVER QUITE MATERIALIZING SO I'M JUST GOING TO CONTINUE IGNORING IT.

I AM SO HUNGRY MY STOMACH IS GROWLING. I THINK I WILL GO POUR MYSELF A BOWL OF CEREAL IF SOMEONE LEFT ANY MILK IN THE REFRIGERATOR. BUT I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY IT IS SO FREEZING COLD IN THIS OFFICE ALL THE TIME.

WE HAVE HAD NO HEAT IN OUR APARTMENT FOR AT LEAST THREE DAYS NOW. THE MANAGEMENT COMPANY SAID THEY'D SEND SOMEONE YESTERDAY, BUT NO.

I AM WEARING TWO SWEATSHIRTS. TWO. AND I AM STILL COLD.

No manager caught me!

IF A BIG GREEN TICK AND A BIG RED CROSS AREN'T CLEAR, THEN HOW THE FECKING FECK IS SWAPPING GREEN FOR PINK IN ANYWAY BLOODY CLEARER?

THE DEFAULT FIREWORKS SETTINGS FOR BEVEL+EMBOSS AND DROP SHADOW ARE NOT GOOD. THIS IS WHY YOUR "SEE I CAN CREATE A BUTTON IN 3 MINUTES" BUTTONS LOOK LIKE GEOCITIES SHITE.

PHOTOSHOP IS NOT AN APP FOR NOTHING PUT PRINT WORK.

YET AGAIN THERE'S NOTHING WORTH WATCHING ON TV.

STUPID PRINTER WON'T PRINT.
IT WILL COPY. IT WILL SCAN.
I HATE YOU, PRINTER.

I'M TORN BECAUSE I HAVE TWO MONTHS LEAVE STARTING IN TWO WEEKS AND THAT IS FUCKING AWESOME, BUT THINGS ARE HAPPENING AT WORK THAT WILL PROBABLY MEAN A REALLY GOOD OPPORTUNITY CAREER-WISE WILL COME UP DURING THAT TIME AND I WILL MISS IT IF I'M NOT HERE. I DON'T KNOW WHETHER TO POSTPONE MY LEAVE TO MAKE SURE I CAN POUNCE ON THE OPPORTUNITY OR SAY FUCK IT AND ENJOY TWO MONTHS OF NO 3 HOURS A DAY COMMUTING AND SUFFERING FOOLS, IF NOT GLADLY, WITH PATIENCE.
