business ops is a bizarre hellscape of uninformed and ill-equipped morons beseiging my data. despite the fact that this is a secured facility and all the opsec review meetings we all have to sit through week after week the #1 threat is joe dumbass in HR who who thinks he knows better than I do because he used to sell AOL subscriptions 20 years ago. if my building burned to the ground today with me in it I would rejoice with my hands raised towards the heavens at the divine intervention putting myself out of this never ending combat against the weaponized stupidity known as “end users.”
I can hardly even do automatic updates to existing programs on my computer at work because they have the security features tightened so far down. Why are they tightened down? Because people kept clicking virus links in email and on the internet. Last year, almost everyone got an email that, if you hovered over the link, had "phishing scam" in the web address. We had a good laugh in our office. Ten minutes later, we got an email with the link from someone in another office because they had clicked the link and entered their info.

You know, I thought the internet safety training I had to do for my job was real fucking dumb... but ready those last two posts really reaffirmed that people big ol’ dummies.
I got a promotion today, so that's cool. Can't post about it on Facebook because it's gotta stay quiet until it's hr official.
Do you have enough power to change the carpet?
I wish. Our office manager has made it clear on multiple occasions that we had zero input on any decor choices. They were all made at a higher level. I'm guessing people are actually legit complaining about some parts of it.
My company who decided to not close on Labor Day and not pay any holiday time today had the audacity to make a Facebook and Instagram post saying how thankful they were for their employees and the hard work they do
I’m ready to get myself fired by commenting on those posts today

Story of my life: A judge just randomly stopped by my office to chat for a minute. After he left, I happened to look in a mirror where I noticed the big glob of peanut butter that was on my face the whole time he was in here.
I learned out of necessity. When I worked at the rehab, the kitchen staff was terrible about sending down sufficient plastic ware for the patients late snack. By the time we usually figured it out, they had already cleaned and locked up for the evening.
A university campus is so much cooler to work at during breaks. I circled for 25 minutes to find parking today.
Parking at UTK (as a student anyway) was insane, so I didn’t even try. In 7 years there, I bought a parking pass one semester, and that was only because I had a late class (I dropped the class and returned the pass after two weeks). The rest of the time, I street parked in the neighborhood across from campus. It still wasn’t ideal but was much better than driving around campus all morning trying to to find a space. It also made me really good at parallel parking, but now I’m out of practice. I tried to do it when we were in Denver and gave up after a couple of minutes of trying.

I'm pretty much the best parallel parker I know, it's my only superpower. I've even had onlookers express their admiration before. Unfortunately the neighborhoods around campus here require a residential permit to park on the streets
I did use that trick in community college, though! I found two secret spaces that nobody else knew about and utilized them for two years straight. They were closer to the campus than most of the official college parking and were in the shadow of a giant hotel so I could take naps in my car between classes. Too bad the parking gods haven't been as kind here! Can't win 'em all, I guess.
I have one week left of my government job. I would be excited except in my new job I will be logging my work in 6-minute increments. Why do I do this to myself?

I don't really care about "fish" per se. Eat all the fish you want. Canned tuna fish salad is pretty disgusting, but this is America where people wear that disgust proudly. OTOH, 3 of my co-workers eat endless amounts of hard boiled eggs. One does it for protein, one is a diabetic and one is on some fat/protein diet that burns away fat. So every morning when I go to the refrigerator to get an ice cold red bull to start my day, it's like I'm in a fucking port-o-john with that disgusting refrigerator filled with boiled eggs. There are very few things that can make me wretch, but watching someone eat a hard boiled egg or egg salad will do it every time. I just find boiled, gelatinized ovum to be rather disgusting. OTOH again, I will eat fish roe on sushi.

Someone in our auditorium is wearing perfume SO STRONG that I can smell it clear as day whenever someone opens the door only for a moment, about 100 feet away.
How can someone be THAT clueless about how strong their scent is? I don't even know how it's possible to be that potent.
Also I don't know how everyone in the auditorium can possibly stand it.

There's a lady in the office who leaves a scent trail everywhere she goes. She's nice enough, but that alone makes me not want to interact with her.
Also, the transition to getting things done by telling people to do things instead of getting things done by doing them is more difficult than I was lead to believe.

The woman that was renting the AirB&B upstairs from my office last week stunk up the whole office when she would walk down the staircase OUTSIDE of the office. Like that is a good 30 feet from my desk and she isn't even coming inside the door. I just don't get that. I of course also have deadly allergies and all perfume bothers me but that shit was intense.
