If you would like a meeting with me, don’t make me schedule it.

I just wanted to rant to you fine people about how annoying it is to have people, from all levels of the company, message me asking me to schedule time with them because they need to meet with me. Like I'm their secretary or I have nothing better to do with my time then schedule THEIR meetings. The overwhelming majority of these requests come from men, so as a woman it comes across as pretty sexist. I always respond with “My calendar is up to date, feel free to grab a time that works best with your schedule.” So, maybe don't do this to the people you work with. It's annoying.

Husband and I finally wake up

Went out on a ‘date night’ tonight with my partner. We rarely do this as I’m absolutely exhausted at the end of each working day. Tonight we tried to imagine it was our first date. Essentially all the chat and questions showed me that my job stands in the way of pretty much everything else. I love teaching, but it’s made me a worse parent, a worse partner and a total shell of a person.

It is ABSURD that people are recommending Teacher’s be trained to kill school shooters to protect children , while still paying them $35,000 at the same time. WTF

How can both statements come out of someone's mouth? Teachers are one of the most disrespected professions in the United States, and now we're asking them to play cop I'm their schools? Then at least FUCKING PAY THEM LIKE A COP

[RANT] I may be fired because of my phobia :(

(I’m sorry if this isn’t the right place to post this. I’m a huge supporter of the anti-work movement and what it advocates for). Maybe this is irrational and I know it definitely isn’t normal to be THIS fearful of wasps. Basically, I’m at work right now. I need to carry beer from the loading dock in the back to this cabin that’s a bit ways away from the main building (I work at a golf course). Now normally this wouldn’t be a problem. I mean, I’m always very paranoid that there are wasps buzzing around me, crawling on me, etc, but USUALLY everything goes fine and dandy. Well, I was just starting to put away the beer when, low and behold, 3 wasps begin buzzing around me. I instinctively RAN the other direction carrying a bunch of beer in my arms but they chased me a bit. I really…
