good point butterknife

i had about an hour commute to a job i hated and thanked gorb when that weird homeschooled jackoff fired me

he got lil legs lol

I've been able to pick out with 100% accuracy who at at my workplace was homeschooled.

I saw some paperwork here at work that showed someone was a homeschool dropout.

homeschool dropout is a good band name

Okay so my bosses have been pretty much unresponsive and no one knows if they're supposed to be at work or remote still.
It's a real fuckin mess here in mpls right now.

can't imagine they'd want you in the office right now
Even if they did, id probably tell them to fuck off

just keep being remote

I am reorganizing your cooler not out of a love for industry but from anxiety about drinks needing to be with their friends

I love how bridy says my thoughts out loud lol.

I gotta do a LOT of dangerous shit tomorrow. Confined space AND fall harness at the same time. I know, that seems like a contradiction, but its not in a condenser for a nuke plant. I've done this for 15 years, and I couldn't think of a more dangerous place to be if I tried. Did this once last year. Gotta do it for each of two floors up too.

I'm a little nervous, but they, as a nuke plant, follow every safety thing there is.

I'm still a hella bit wary.

I didnt have fresh oat milk for my coffee at work 😞

Ok stay safe

we will rebuild

Is this a module nuclear plant
Those are smaller I guess
If you see a sign 'it's been __ days since an accident '
And like it's a single digit filled in there?
I suggest just book it like road runner
BEEPBEEP

Dear State of Maine Employees:

To help address concerns stemming from recent news coverage, DAFS and the Office of the Attorney General are offering guidance on procedures and protocols regarding requests to provide access to non-public spaces in public buildings, or requests to produce documents.

Occasionally, individuals show up at public buildings unannounced and request access into areas where they are not authorized, or request information that is confidential or otherwise protected. It is legal to be in public spaces, assuming proper badging/credentials, compliance with screening requirements, and any other statutes, rules or regulations in force. This Guidance will help prepare you if you receive requests to enter non-public areas or are asked to provide non-public information.

UNDERSTAND & PREPARE:

Not all areas of public buildings are open to the public. Certain areas contain confidential, private and non-public records, or are work areas not open to the public (for example: behind the service counter). For clarity, signage designating areas as “Authorized Personnel Only” has been distributed to agency contacts for posting. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter these areas.

Even if areas are properly designated as non-public, there may be visibility into the spaces. Please ensure that confidential non-public records are not openly displayed and are stored in a manner that will not expose them to inadvertent public disclosure. Likewise, employee work areas that can be seen by the public should not contain personal items which they do not want the general public to observe.

HOW TO RESPOND TO REQUESTS TO ENTER NON-PUBLIC AREAS OR SEE NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION:

1) All areas should be clearly marked if they are not accessible to members of the public. Generally, visitors are allowed to be in public areas, so do not instruct them to leave the building.
2) Be polite and professional. Remain calm; speak slowly/quietly to avoid escalating and/or to de-escalate the interaction.
3) Be factual and truthful. If they ask for information that any other person would be entitled to receive, provide it in the same professional manner as you would for any other person.
4) Follow Attorney General Guidance for requests to access to non-public areas.
5) Follow Attorney General Guidance if documents or information are requested.
6) Do not ignore other customers who are there to receive services. If a customer is uncomfortable, ask the customer if you can take their phone number and call them back or assist them later.
7) Do not use a personal or State mobile device to film an individual. This can cause further escalation.

What about when ICE agents point their guns at you? (I just assume this is ICE related)

Right? Say its ice without saying its ice

Anyone else riding the Microsoft outage?

i can't even get to the status page so that's probably not a good sign

what does the statuss status page say?

Well, this is cool. They updated our phones and now I have an email with 7 attachments about how to use it.

how to text with rotary phone

He has to set his iphone to pulse, not tone.

I remember the big switch from rotary to tone

my motivation at work is at an all time low. living in a scramble hotfix fire drill problem solve rushed deadline new high priority environment for nearly 2 years now has totally left me zapped and there is no way it will change given the stuff we have coming on the horizon

any win is quickly forgotten because the next new emergency catastrophe is right there tapping its foot and looking at its watch

All I'm saying is that there's nothing the Casa Bonita Slormfest can't fix.
