Harmony is not here today. I love her like a sister but it's crazy.

Like I don't know if it's actual sickness - she is always sick - or it is the not-liking-to-drive-in-winter-weather thing. It's not even snowing. There is some slipperiness here and there but that's about it. If that's the reason, then we are basically on our way to being a summer-only employee.

Probably sick I guess.

There are a couple people here who get away with stuff that would just be unheard of everywhere else I have worked. At least Harmony does an excellent job when she is here. The other guy would have been in for a shape-up-or-ship-out meeting 5 minutes after I met him.

Then out on his can. Dude is pathetic. But then you have to look straight at his boss for accepting it.

Leadership! We need some leadership here!

Big annual conference and party this Thursday. This year's theme is "rock star". There's going to be group karaoke at the party. Our team's song is going to be by either Journey or Bon Jovi. :facepalm:

I got meself a brand new Jimi Hendrix Band of Gypsies t-shirt.

I've got 3 more days to get my arms tattooed.

We allow people to work from home as they desire. The implication is that you're really not allowed to get behind on work, 'cause you've got a work-issued laptop, a work-issued phone in some cases and 100% access to all the same tools you have at the office.

I reckon Harmony would be proper fucked.
 
That's actually exactly how bacon's job works.

Agreed on Harmony, she would be trusted to work from home for about two weeks and then when they realized work just wasn't convenient for her she would be dismissed, in my opinion.

But hey - that vacuuming's not gonna take care of itself.
