Is the dragon butane or propane? Actually, either one should clear the problem up real quick...

The dragon is organic, and actually might eat any creepy crawlies moving around in the cage. I seriously considered a propane torch, but I'm not sure I can get everywhere they'll hide. Might be time to start taking out panels and burning them. :-/

Ok, fuck.
I'm pretty flexible.. i can work in most environments. Hell, i have. No problem.

But the fact that my desk is freaking dark because they messed up the light means that i am going home with my eyeballs wigging out and headaches. this is not something i need 5 days a week.

now word is that the original fixtures have been recalled and the new generation must be shipped from EUROPE, so it will be weeks of this.

F*ck that, Rian. They messed up, they shouldn't be f*cking with your help. Bring in a desk lamp if they won't do some sort of temporary solution.

F*cking agreed. My point was that even if they weren't gonna do the f*cking right thing, that you should take care of yourself. Of course they should pay, but if they don't the money for a lamp is cheaper than the wear and tear on you.

The "new" fucking computer system is as full of holes as the "old" fucking computer system... but, Hey! It's Windows based, so it must be better!!! The "old" computer system is almost as old as I am, the new one was designed at least ten years ago.

Rian... build a campfire on your desk out of old files... for the light, of course. They may take the hint then...

well, as much as i enjoy these fabulous fucking suggestions, it isn't their fucking fault.

the person who i have to work on is Al, the lighting rep who told us these crappy, newly recalled fixtures would be a good idea.

alas, there's little to be done for the moment.... though i'm tempted by making that fire anyway....

Have you thought about bring in a big ass, flaming fucking torch for a light source. Tell them you have Seasonal Affective Disorder and that the torch was under doctor's orders to prevent massive mood swings and Carpal Eyeball Sydrome.

Using 'doctor' and 'disorder' in the same sentence usually has HR shitting bricks. You'll pretty much get your way from then on as long as you're corporate.

Oh and if you then starting bring in massive sides of raw meat, and start eating it with your bare hands at your desk while grunting- people will quit bothering you while you're at work.

I have found that moaning "oh, no" with occasional screaming while in the toilet stall works too.

So.

We put in the offer for the house we want to buy, and the guy just said no. Didn't give us a counter-offer, just 'no'. What the fuck?

Sigh. We tacked $8,000 on to our offer and are trying again. Thing is, we already know there are some 'issues' in the basement so that's what we based out original offer on. Grrr.

A bit of both actually.

The basement looks a bit sketchy as far as the attempts that have been made to prop up sagging parts of the house, as well as a couple cracked beams (including one right under the tub). The rear part of the house is all crooked, and was probably built on a dirt a hundred years ago or something. Next summer we'll tear the fucking thing down and build a beautiful eating area and bedroom with a lovely stone patio off the back.

The wife of the owner killed herself (car exhaust) in the shop that I want to use for my business. I think she'll be okay with what we do though, plus I'll be cleaning up her once-flourishing flowerbeds that have been neglected for four years. No horror movie scenarios, ideally.
