More like somebody kicked a hole in the dam, lol - wonder who that was? :p

Beginning to suspect local weather prognosticators are actually bards... 88 degrees and 70% humidity. Supposed to "Feels like" 94 degrees. Seems about right. I blame Snarf. Clearly his enemies have taken to punishing those around him for his misdeeds.

Fun, fun, fun at work today... Unlike most of the people who work at my location, I got recalled from the other location because they were planning to run one line this week at our location. One person on each shift got recalled to help run the line. I show up last night to find out our...

I'm currently doing a sexual harassment/diversity/etc. thingy for work... If we want to get paid for the time we spent on it if we did it from home, we're required to spend at least two hours reading the presentation, and there's a timer. I finished it in half the time, and am now in the middle...
