I have the additional benefit of being one of very few people actually in the building. Blissfully quiet and calm for the end of the first week back post-holiday.

A- freaking- men
I just sent an email to my bff. Bemoning the fact that one of my coworkers deletes my messages without reading them. She doesn't know I have read receipt on everything that I send, and I'm not going to tell her. Another one patted me on the head (virtually) and treats me like I'm stupid when I ask where a document is stored. So now I respond with why I can't find it in the team's site that we are forced to use that sucks. My response today was, well, if it is labeled 2024 and it is for 2025 information, I am likely not to look there. And if you send something as a draft with that term used in the title, I'm likely not going to expect it to be the final iteration of a document. These mfers need to not try me because I will destroy them if they push me too far.

Your definition of f*** around and find out.

And we already discussed the eye poking and biting
Wat I may need to borrow ethyl for a secret mission....and better send TDK for back up

I am so sorry, @Missk_2022 Don't know how you deal with this all day long.
Also, the number of options when searching "level of stupid meme funny" is overwhelming. Afforded me the chance to play Eenie Meenie Miney Mo though... So there's that.

Nice!
And... welcome... haven't seen you here before...

Here's the standard welcome for all café newcomers:
Welcome to the café.

We conduct ourselves a bit differently here than most of the rest of Lit.

Post #1 introduces the joint... and glancing back over the last 10-20 pages provides additional context.

To be clear:
1. No religion 2. No politics 3. No drama 4. This isn't a hook up thread. Take it to the DMs or go somewhere else.

Everyone is welcome but we are protective of the vibe

This applies to all who visit this thread.
If this feels like a good match, welcome...

If not then please keep looking on Lit -
There's so many threads to choose from. You're sure to find a few to your liking.

Many thanks. I am brand new to this thread, relatively off-the-lurker-bench for the forum, and a long-time reader of the Lit stories.

I did read the first post, appreciate your guidance, and will do my best to observe and fit in (one of my superpowers).

Took me a minute but guffawed out loud and had to show my wife.

Good morning all. Still fighting this bug, but I’m back to work. Two days with a fever, a trip to the ER and all I got was some Tylenol and some nausea meds. I don’t seem to have all my energy back so I’ll be laying low for the weekend. Hope everyone has a great weekend, be safe out there.

You need the purple sizurp so you can wake up on two days feeling better.

My mom died from a stroke around 1963 and my dad died the next year of a broken heart and respiratory issues.
I was traumatized and spent time in a psychiatric hospital. They removed two years of my memory to keep me from terminating myself.

Well, glad it worked because glad your with us.

 

[Missk_2022]

I don’t mean to be a pain, but, the send receipt is an option; as a recipient of many emails that have a read receipt, I often refuse to send out the read receipt (it’s an option in Outlook).

Not that I want to be a pain, let’s face it, I can be a sarcastic little fuck, I know that the sender will be submerged with email receipts and that he has no clue that he sent out an email copied the world and has both a send and read receipt flags turned on!

I exaggerated. I only have read receipts on those i don't trust or have to keep metrics on.... (doctors who ignore my emails).

I am tired of these little shits and their little games.... retirement retirement retirement ohhhhmmmmmm

If someone could explain the best way to post some of the snow pics I have from today, I would appreciate it. I don't know if they are too big or from an unsupported format or what. It tells me oops, something went wrong with no explanation.
I have crappy camera on my phone but I think at least one of the early morning pics I took of the icy pond and the snowy woods around is really nice. Just wanted to share.
Is there a gallery somewhere in the profile that can be viewed? Thinking I might need to make an Instagram after all or dust off my discord.

I manage mine the long/hard way on my desktop.
I'm sure someone else will post an easier way.
I don't want to create yet another online account with another site/app.
So, these are my steps:
1) Email image to yourself
2) Download image to PC
3) Open image using Paint
4) Resize image
a) Under 1500 pixels wide* (usually 50% or 25% that size)
b) If I get an error or it doesn't render on the thread, keep resizing down until it does

A bit crude, but gets the job done.

*I found information on photo format/size as relates to Illustrated Stories, so figured I would use that as a guide for posting images.

It seems to be all lining up. Sometimes patience will lead you to the place you need/want to be. I am glad that you fostered this working friendship. I find when in hell, it is always better to find at least one friend to help.. It is nice that she gave you such a glowing recommendation. She sounds like good people.
Get that coffee in and drive safely. We need our Wat in one piece. I can't wait to hear how it went.

I wish I could say they offered me the gig on the spot, but they didn't. That's only happened to me once ever. I was there for 80 minutes, and honestly, I'm not entirely sure how it went. We'll see. They let the recruiter woman know something next week.

3.click on photo you want.
4.click on insert.
5. Click on full size.
