I'm glad I read the 2nd half of that sentence because I was wondering why the hell you were wearing a postal employee's outfit.

For like two hours it was great. Then I kinda missed her. It's weird.

kinda funny you mention this--i went on a job interview a couple weeks ago and dressed even more down. Like slacks and a button down.

But, i made sure to explain to the recruiter that this would be the case since i'd be coming directly from my office with 0 time to change into a suit. She assured me it wouldnt be an issue.

And apparently it wasn't because i got a call back from her stating that i was a top candidate and would asked to come back in for a second go around. Also, we had joked about it in the interview. The guy I'd be reporting too didn't seem to care.

Definitely not standard procedure, but i seemingly pulled it off.

I missed Sonic the Hedgehog's birthday. He just turned 25.

This won't be the last time I complain about this, it isn't the first. But I wish people would use 'humblebrag' correctly. It's lonely being the only person who has the intelligence to know what the word actually means.

I listen to podcasts for about half my workday. I turned one on and it started with a message about how I could download coloring pages for each episode and fill them out as I listen. I groaned audibly. Girl in the next cube looked over.
