    it's not nice to laugh at others' misfortune...
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I agree! When I was a child that was a huge no no. As I became an adult comedy seemed to almost rely on making fun of others. It seemed wrong to me.

    Stupid corporate radio stations...they decided to take away one of the rock stations and change it to a dance/alternative station, then shuffle around the other stations so now we have 2 alternative stations, 6 hip-hop/rap/house/R&B station, 4 country stations, 3 religious stations, 1 indie and 1 rock station.

    rock station plays mostly older stuff...hardly any of the new stuff. :anguished:

    when i took a dozile it didnt work so may take a day nap
    time is flying by so fast now and i feel under pressure to
    choose which goal i want but decided im going to take my time
    and analyse everything before i make a big choice and im going
    to also ask Jesus if my choice is good...
    then i can go on with my pastime.. so excited as i still feel so young
    and exploring new/old things will be fun and i think the learning
    from mary too will be good im really looking forward to it then

    When the news first broke, it came from a news source in Taipei. They didn't specify the city, so I assumed it was Taipei where my aunt and uncle live, thankfully it wasn't there.

    I have sick days in the bank, no docs in the office today, so why do i feel guilty that I want to stay home and try to finally kick this infection to the curb? No one at work cares! They're telling me to stay home and they mean it. LOL...Guilt, I hate to feel guilty for no reason!

    I apologize in advance to anyone that may identify with this woman, but I am a NYC based consultant that for over the last decade has ran around this city assisting large, well known companies and corporations clean up their payroll function. Nutshell, I am a HRIS systems, workflow, and policy expect with a firm conceptual understanding of payroll. I'm not trying to overly toot my on horn here, but I am an animal at what I do with references who can confirm as much.

    I'm currently at a cool fashion company in SoHo where it's starting to look like there maybe a FT job for if I want it. Long story short, while the staff is handling the day to day shit I have been told by my boss's boss and her boss that I am to document the current process, identify gaps, and make recommendations as to what we can mitigate against and plug them as possible. This is the whole reason I am here.

    My boss also brought on a couple of people to assist her in the day to day crap, which I am supposed to help out with, but stay at arms length from so I can focus on the big picture stuff. One is a Payroll Clerk who lives in El Paso, worked as a Customer Service Rep at ADP for 7 years, and had never set foot in NYC as of like 6 weeks ago. The total and complete lack of understanding of how the NYC corporate world works and how this woman functions could not be any greater. Yesterday, a woman that never went to college, has never worked in a true corporate environment, makes about half what I do, and is a temp with no chance of sticking around pulled me off to the side and advised me that “She doesn’t appreciate how I go about doing what I do.”, and proceeded to tell me ‘what exactly she is going to need from me going forward.’ I tried explaining to this imbecile that I am not here in the same role that she is, that I have been instructed to do certain things that she has not been made aware of, and that she is over stepping her role BIG TIME to absolutely no success. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like it to be honest. This woman got on a plane out of San Antonio with the corporate knowledge of what it is like to be a CSR for ADP, which there are probably 5,000 of across the country, and walked into a NYC corporate office as temp thinking she would tell others how to do their jobs. It’s staggering to me. Anyway, hey Ted Cruz, can you please get your peeps out of my NY value system based career? I’ve got enough fucking shit to have to deal with over here. Much thanks.

    How does staff effectively tell their boss that his secretary is a disaster? Several of us feel that he needs to know how and why she's driving all of us up the wall, and why she is completely useless, but that is a really difficult thing to bring up, especially when it will make her look so bad and she wouldn't know we're doing it. He obviously has to know some of it, but I don't think he understands just how bad it is for most of the staff, and we feel like he needs to confront the issues with her....... I'm sure as hell not going to be the one to bring it up to him though! (yes, I have tried to talk to her directly - it absolutely does not work - this chick is totally fucked up).
