So I guess throwing on a tie and jacket for our holiday party equals cleaning up real nice, whereas the rest of the week in my khakis and button up sans tie I just look like gutter trash?
Sigh. It's too early for me to deal with people.0 -

I wish I could've. But such a comment would be against our 'corporate values.' :roll: :fp:"Where's KW?"

Freakin' values. For our reviews, values like "respect," "teamwork" and "integrity" are weighted more than things like whether or not I did my job well. Yeah, that makes perfect sense. :lolno:"Where's KW?"

Oh dear. Just got a text from an ex with a link to http://youtu.be/ZXILp6cVXAY saying this song makes him think of me. So I check the lyrics:
I've been gone for so long now
Chasing everything that’s new
I've forgotten how I got here
I have not forgotten you
We were just children but our eyes opened and
You were all that i could see
You came close enough to know my heart beat but
Still not close enough for me
Through the good times and the bad
You were the best I never had
The only chance I wish I had to take
But there was no writing on the wall
No warning signs to follow
I know now and I just can't forget
You’re the best I never had
In this motel
Well passed midnight
When I’m bluer than a bruise
You come drifting in through the half light
In your funny yellow shoes
And I hope that’s you standing at my doorway
That’s the scratching of your key
And I hope this song I’m singing
Someday finds you
My letter to Elise
Through the good times and the bad
You were the best I never had
The only chance I wish I had to take
But there was no writing on the wall
No warning signs to follow
I know now and I just cant forget
You’re the best I never had
