Actually, most supervisors (including me!) recognize that a little chit chat, and treating people generally as "humans" in the work place goes a long way toward productivity. Yes, I need to bill hours, and yes, my time is valuable. But I still talk to my assistant about her son's baseball games because she is a person…

It has nothing to do with the tasks required of the job. Secretary had become an unnecessarily gendered term, and most people have moved to assistant because because it is a gender neutral term. It's not something I go around correcting a lot of people on, but I usually expect women on a so-called feminist website to…

As an administrative assistant, I hope one of the "frickin secretaries" spits in your coffee. Not really, because that's gross and unprofessional, but jesus. God forbid your coworkers seem to like you (god knows why, maybe because you're such a Cool Girl) and want to interact with you. That must be terrible for you.

Just give them chocolate! It solves everything.

Half Life 3 CONFIRMED.

Those managers are enemabags. So is anyone who gets snotty about pregnant women trying to exist while being pregnant.

I doubt there is very much data on gay marriage or divorce at this time. Give it time. The article is looking at trends over time, when gay marriage DIDN'T exist.

A feel-good anecdote, with regards to getting married because you're knocked up:

my grandparents have been married for 50 years but my memaw almost left my papaw in the late 60s because she found out he was gambling all of his money away. she got a job and started saving up to leave; he realized what she was doing and begged her to stay and quit her job, and said that he would quit gambling. she…

you know what I find offensive? 18 year olds getting shot and prosecutors intentionally throwing the case

I gotta say, props to Snooki for not turning into a train wreck. She got a lot of shit for being an out of control mess when she was younger, and she is still an insatiable attention whore, but she looks like a good mom with a good partner. Her show with J Woww is so unbelievably boring because they are now just…

he should have manned up, say "I'm sorry for my comments, I realize what I said was wrong, and I knew they were wrong before I said them, and still said them. The trash talk culture in gaming needs a serious overhaul #imafuckingloser"

Except that EVERY ADULT knows that "rape" also mean "sexual assault". It's not like an archaic word that nobody knows. You can't say "I'm gonna rape her" to a woman and believe this is acceptable.

Actually, it's about...

I got into trouble with my sister's neighborhood moms. One of them threw a model party complete with audition tapes for 6 yr olds. I taught my niece to say "I'M NOT HERE TO MAKE FRIENDS!" so she did to the camera, my sister thought it was hilarious but the other moms were pisssed!

I'm not Dr. Nerdlove, but I think you're beating yourself up too much about your looks, especially your hair. You're thinking numbers, and while it's fun to joke around about with friends, it doesn't really translate all that well into real world mindsets.

The Eibsee, near Garmisch and at the foot of the Zugspitze. The clean air, the great hiking trails, the clear blue green water, the swimming and boating and the glorious views!! Perfect!!
