Is there any way I can subtly threaten them into hurrying tf up?

Laughed too hard at this lol

there is nowhere near that many redheads in corporates.... we are a minority!

That kid never said that...

We do it for money, obviously... If not, it would not be called work 😅

Laughing so loud I scared the animals!

We need a fourth cat to make this really interesting.

I was asked to leave my nearly dying service dog with "someone else" and show to work... My psychiatric service dog, that I'd probably wouldn't need if I had family, friends or any acquaintance that I'd trust or could ask a favor of any kind. So the picture is I have a dog that I medically need, that also happens to be the whole extend of my support system and the only living being that cares about me, dabbling between life and death i. My hands, I'am panicking cause I don't have anyone I can ask for a drive to the vet (I can't drive), and the response to this is my manager telling me I don't have any choice other than to leave the dog with (Imaginary?) "Someone" and get to my minimum wage shift on time. (The dog made it. Manager and HR still don't understand why I didn't show up that day or why I handed in my resignation)

The safest way is to apply duct tape to your mouth.

Been there, done it

Omg this one hitted me hard 😅. Found a new way of living though and my life is so much better now. Work to live, dont live to work.

Not a consultant, but same.

poor doggo

Try explaining data visualization to your great-aunt on family meetings...

I do this with my friends in Japan. One day I'll be in the dining room, (easy to grab snacks), the next will be in the home gym. Once I even jogged around the circular deck. 60 meters long, around the top floor. Living in Japan can get rather cramped, so just making the most of being stuck in the USA.

I hate Excel so much...

Wish we could Ctrl+Z the former guy's entire term.

What it takes to pay the rent.

Until you start working for one of the Big Five, then it's the other way around. The team clocks 50 hrs, management invoices for 80, and the intern who did the actual job logged 30 hrs on it, working no more than 15 hrs.
