The other day I tried to do something technical to these and it’s screwed it all up royally. Please bear with me as I fix it. It’s time consuming and not rewarding in the slightest. It will get done because I can’t handle having it so unorganised, I’m just prioritising everything else above it, and [...]

Leaving
Posted in office, personal on January 31, 2009 | 2 Comments »
The happiness I felt on the morning of my last day didn’t actually last for the entire day. With the first meaningful goodbye, the tears started to well up. I met a lot of wonderful people at that company, and as much as I came to hate my time there, I had did enjoy myself [...]
Breaking an Addiction
Posted in idiots, personal, tagged Uncategorized on January 31, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Recently I have been trying to break an addiction. It’s damn hard.
I’m not talking about drugs, smoking, drinking or anything overly dangerous along those lines.
I’m talking about a little everyday addiction. Everyone has them, and mostly they’re ok. I used to be addicted to reading in a very severe way and you would never find [...]
Last Day
Posted in office on January 30, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Today is my last day at this job. I feel fan-freaking-tastic. I’m sure there’s some deep and meaningful and reflective things I’m meant to say at this time, but really all I feel is relief. Working out a notice period is not fun.
So that’s all I have to say. Yay for me, it’s over (almost)
If You Don’t Like It, Then Leave

This is one saying that is sure to get me thoroughly pissed off every time. Beyond that, it’s flat out disappointing.
Most of the time it’s used to refer to anyone who doesn’t agree with the rules or standards of a place. Most recently I’ve heard it used to refer to anyone not patriotic enough to [...]
Rules For My New Job
Posted in office, personal, tagged office on January 29, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Tomorrow is my last shift at my current job. After a week off, I’m moving on to a fresh start at a new company. I don’t know anyone that works there, and all they know about me is what was said in the interview. I have a chance to start over, and a chance to [...]
Shaving
Posted in feminism, male privilege on January 28, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Much like name changing, shaving seems to involve heated discussions amongst feminists. Every feminist does what it takes to get by in the patriarchy. There are compromises that we all make to get through each day. However, every issue that we compromise on makes it that little bit harder for the feminist that doesn’t compromise [...]
Stupid Sitcoms and Oblivious Men

Both combine to make me bitter.
A couple of nights ago I had dinner with a few friends and one of them turned the TV on afterwards. The show he wanted to watch so desperately is called ‘The Rules of Engagement’ and I had never had the misfortune to encounter it before this night. I hope [...]
Feminism and ‘The Other Woman’
Posted in feminism, tagged Uncategorized on January 26, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I’ve been thinking about this topic a lot recently, and I’m genuinely conflicted about it. There’s not a lot of posts out there on feminist websites about this, but there sure is a lot on anti women sites. Apparently, and I must say I was not surprised at this, it’s all the mistress’ fault when [...]

Happy Birthday. You know who you are. Hope it’s an awesome day
