Yes, but..... CEOs also have about 400 times the responsibilities (or, at least, the blame if things go wrong) that the rank and file do and as hard as it is for us "regular people" to get jobs right now, there's only so many CEO positions out there. If you are a CEO and you get let go, you're probably looking at a…

In terms of the "back-breaky-ness" (to use Buffyspeak) of the work, I totally agree with you. A ditch digger probably even works harder in that regard than a CEO. But someone who is digging ditches also probably works 8 hours a day rather than pretty much around the clock, isn't hounded by email and phone calls 24…

Totally. The board decides. I was the chair of the second-largest rape crisis center in the country for years and we always approved executive compensation. However, this board could have screwed themselves by entering into a trap-door contract that simply expands the CEO's salary no matter what, without any…

I totally get and respect that you love that class. I would never take it for the reasons I stated, but I'm also not a zealot telling other women they shouldn't pole dance (in Chicago there's a lot of "stripper fitness" classes, some with poles, some without). I prefer to run. Some people think I'm nuts for running…

I really hate it when people get down on CEOs for making a lot of money. They do a lot of work, too, and bear most of the blame if/when the company tanks. In this case, though, we're talking about a NFP and a hugely out-of-line annual pay increase. I have no problem with CEOs making money and believe that they…

Jesus. Having read the CrossFit blog post from the screencap now, I'm really sad. It sounds like a great class (for women who want/like that sort of thing... of which I am not one) except that you have to deal with the humiliating name. What a bummer.

I actually know very little about CrossFit except for two things: 1) six-degree friends of mine who take the classes post on FB constantly about how AWESOME it is and how AMAZING they feel because of CrossFit; 2) I've heard rumors that vomiting in class is a regular occurrence and that the object is to completely…

Seriously! The ladies are totally rockin' their outfits. The groom on the other hand looks schlumpy and... well, like he's wearing camo to his own wedding. Good for these girls.

Oh I just meant it wasn't included on the list above. I'm glad for the confirmation that it's covered by the AHCA. My plan renews next month so I hadn't tested the system yet. Hopefully I won't have to put up a fight.

So awful. I'm too forgetful to to take a pill everyday, so NuvaRing is really the only way to go for me. My head's gonna explode if the poor pharmacist if she tells me that I have to pay something the next time I go in there for a refill.....

I keep praying for the day when I meet my deductible and they can't charge me for anything else for the rest of the year.

So next month is supposed to be the first month this benefit kicks in for me, meaning that I shouldn't have to pay a dime for my BC. I'm on NuvaRing and there's no generic. I'm already gearing up for a rip raging fight with my insurance company about this....

SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!! I had found a Target that had it for $78 but then it sloooowly creeped up to $89 over the last year. So. Upsetting.

Nuva-ring not included. Bummer.

Doesn't that kinda resemble a 5 lb bag of sugar? I wonder which would be worse... Bynes buying coke in 5 lb increments or keeping bags of sugar around the bathroom for... you know, whatever. I imagine the top being torn off and a large tablespoon left inside for ease of samplin'.

Seriously? THAT'S what it means? That's just ridiculous.

Wow. You managed to sound pretentious, judgmental and inane all in one post.

I can't even figure out what he's trying to say when he says "tape and rape" here. WTF? Was "tape and rape" the (profane) Pee-Wee's Playhouse Word of the Day and he had to jam it into a sentence somehow to that Chairry and Conky would scream?? Whadda jackass.

is this a joke? I mean, one of my girlfriends and I wait with bated breath to see how terribly our names have been mangled by takeout order guys and baristas. She even got her secret agent name from one such incident: Clint Micharea. Give me a break. The baristas in HK are prolly doin' the best they can, lady. Get…

SERIOUSLY. I was all excited last year when I saw that The Limited was going to start doing the wider size ranges, but then felt kind of irritated when I found out that they were actually launching a separate plus size label. WTF? So, if the person purchasing the clothes has an ass that's 2 inches wider than your…
