The absolute hardest part of my job is not engineering tech solutions, writing software, or sitting in meetings.

It's logging into the recognition portal at the end of the month and deciding how I'm supposed to dole out my monthly allotment of brownie points to whom and for how many and for what reason. Or else I look like an ungrateful jerk to management, completely unwilling to play the game.

Feigning familiarity once again. Attaboy, I guess.

O the weird dynamics of an office staff kitchen. There are five Keurig machines and two knockoff Nespresso pod machines (one broken except for its sidecar milk frother). People keep "donating" these machines, but there's no counter space for them. There's also a burr grinder and several reusable K-cup filters (which are often left in the machine after use, thanks). No one cleans them as far as I can tell -- except me, kitchen martyr.

There are two microwaves, a toaster oven, and the most recent addition, an 8-qt air fryer. An air fryer in a staff break room? :question:

There's a dishwasher. The cleaning staff start it after hours most evenings. It's no one's job to empty it in the morning, so I often do it, finding dirty dishes abutting clean ones, or dishes which were too caked with food residue for any dishwasher to remove. And occasionally I find spray arms blocked by giant platters, broken glasses, teaching and lab equipment.

At least most staff members clean their dishes and use the dishwasher. Others just leave their dirty dishes in the sink when no one is looking. The SEP field is strong in them. Despite signs posted exhorting everyone to clean up after their damn selves.

Notwithstanding the compost and recycling bins (which I also tend), I frequently find entire platters full of wasted food, half-full jugs of milk or Arizona iced tea, and countless fruit cores and peels, all chucked mindlessly into the rubbish bin. Which I compulsively pick out and redesignate.

I just need to stop going into the kitchen.

Impromptu gender theory analysis of Office Space and the issue of flair

"Doesn't it bother you that you have to put on a bunch of pieces of flair?"

This is my question to anyone who's never stopped to think about the clothing choices that societal expectations have mandated for them. Flair isn't just the little pins and buttons that a Chotchkie's server is expected to wear, it's every visible article of clothing that covers (or exposes) your body, from jeans and a t-shirt to little black dress.

Maybe you're a Brian who loves to meet if not exceed gender flair expectations, or maybe you're a Joanna who begrudgingly wears the minimum amount to make it through the day without harassment. It's totally ok to be a Brian, but it's also totally ok to be a Joanna and express yourself by rejecting the 37 pieces of flair minimum.

Just something to think about, especially if you do find yourself bothered by the mandated flair.

I sure hope the sketch artist is ready to capture precisely when the Peter Gibbons realization hits

...so I was sitting in my [ COURT ASSIGNED SEAT ] today...

And I realized, ever since I started [ BEING FORCED TO SHOW UP AT MY OWN CRIMINAL TRIALS ]

Every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life.
