Today was bonus day for my company and they fucked it up. Now I gotta go back and say, "Hey! You shorted me x amount!" and fight for it. I hate having to fight for what I've already earned.

Also, the tax rate on bonuses

Due to the way our bonus program at work is constructed, we're realistically never going to get another performance bonus- we set an absurd monthly sales record last year due to a perfect storm of events that will never be replicated again. So, the only bonuses we get are year end holiday bonuses now, which are nice but it sucks because last year I got probably 3-4k in performance bonuses over the first 6 months of the year. Never again.

You ever get around to playing some non-Nintendo software, breh?

Lol I got a PS3 last year breh.

And at least a Nintendo toy has exclusive games I'll put hours into. What does an iWatch have? Exclusive watch faces??

I'm buying it to fuck around with Watchkit, mostly. Shitty as it may appear at the moment, I feel like the development possibilities are exciting for it.

And no, I have other Fossil watches that I enjoy. Fucked around with a Pebble but hated the display that came with it

True story, I once worked with a company that was/Is so notoriously bad to work for that magazines write articles about It. after a few articles they thought to change this perception and one of the things they heard people complain about was the terrible pay. So they looked at the numbers and found that their attrition rate for the first year was 82% and that after 5 years there was a 99% chance the employee would leave. So what they did, and this was clever, was announce very very generous bonuses that only vested 100% after 5years so if you left the company before that you got nothing. The thinking was that they could use the bonuses as a hook to get new employees but there was really only a 1% chance they'd have to pay any of it

I wanted pizza earlier but the commune was watching Bravo in the living room and I didn't want to say something like, "Watch out for that four day old Slim Jim wrapper on the lawn on your way out," to the delivery person so I just worked out instead. Now I'm eating dollar store cereal in bed alone. The struggle has never been more real.

How have you not yelled at these people to pick up their shit/picked up their shit yet?

I don't have a reasonable idea of what acceptable cleaning habits are so I never challenge people for being messy and just clean up after them if the low level anxiety their fucking disgusting filthmongering induces becomes uncomfortable.

Tangent: an office nickname I bear is "the surgeon" because I always put things back where they belong. Kind of ha ha clever, no?

People leaving trash on the lawn is a little beyond 'you left dishes in the sink' type shit. I think you're entitled to check your roommates on that.

Yes, I know it's beyond mores, I only need to look at every single house in mi barrio (even the house the bangers congregate at!) to know we presently exist beyond the pale.

You asked how I hadn't blown up about it, it's because I'm aware enough to know I'm wired wrong, but not able to correct the wiring, so I negate that part of myself in its totality to acceptably function.

When y'all talk about my particular brand of #thedualities, you're usually commenting on a phenomenon that stems from this severe break between my thinking and emotional selves. Sorry to explain the unexplained. #spoilers

Because some idiot decided to back up his truck underneath the wing of the plane and got it stuck there. I've been through a lot of delays. But this one is a first.

They had to switch planes. The pilot was on my shuttle back to the hotel. Apparently the truck hit the wing right where the pipe for the fuel was and it was lucky it didn't pierce it. Either way the plane is out of commission for a while.
