I just needed a place to AW- dd's first word is officially.......mama! She's been babbling it for a while, but she definitely directs it at me now. I walked in from the grocery store yesterday, into the mudroom, and I could hear her in the family room, "mama? Mama?"
I have been constipated since.. last Thursday, probably longer, but I noticed Thursday that I haven't been going. Have been eating high fiber, drinking miralax, lots of water etc. since Friday. Have a barre class today in an hour. Just started pooping rabbit turds this morning. Oh god, this is going to be risky.
I promise, Kansas City is really fun! What part of the city will you be in? I'm happy to give recs for food/drinks/fun stuff to do if you'd like.
I don't have the details yet but I'm all about food so I'd get back with you for recs.
I doubt I'll have time to look around town but there's always time for food.
Sounds good! If you're on Facebook, search for the group " kansas city eats: a forum for the best kc restaurants and food ". There are so many awesome recs there from all over the city too.
I just got a talking to at work bc the receptionist reported me that I was verbally hostile to her. No I wasn't. All I said was "is it hard to remember not to staple things for me? It's not rocket science"

huh. I would have reported you too, because the alternative would have been cursing you out and losing my job.
Leeham Rimes, - Is anyone going to notify CPS or are there any protections in place for the children?
I've called once and got totally shit on by everyone and CPs didn't do anything bc they were with SIL and there was food in the fridge and they weren't in immediate peril. I've been through this one other time with a neighbor and honestly, CPS gives no shits at all. None.

I'm really sorry. Can you report it anonymously going forward? I had a friend who worked at CPS, and I know they had to register a report.
I am really sorry you and your family are having to face this.

This isn't the first time she's done this which is why I put a huge post it on the stack. She asked me herself to "remind her next time", so I did. And she still can't remember. I mean, maybe this isn't the job for her then.
well she might suck, but all I know is that if someone used the it's not rocket science line on me, I would not take it well. It's so disrespectful.

I feel like this must be a bad day because you are always a nice poster but I have to agree with this comment. Telling a receptionist to please adhere to your instructions is one thing...the rocket scientist comment pushes it into verbally hostile territory. You have every right to get correct work output from your colleagues...without the extra jab

Disrespectful is the word my boss just used on me. He also asked that I control my temper in the future. He hasn't even seen the worst of my temper (my last firm did). Now I feel kind of bad.
you should! Don't be a dick at work. Especially to support staff.

If she reported you for this instance, is it possible there have been other situations where she hasn't reported you? My guess is yes. You should review what else you have previously said and stop.
I'd say this was a demeaning statement and you need to rebound from it very quickly....

The former paralegal in me is raging and wincing at this. Ouch.
So my arsehole dog gnawed on my glasses (this is the second pair). I ordered a new pair from Warby Parker last week. Their tracking sucks it. They shipped last Wednesday and have been waiting to transfer to USPS. Although I am afraid they might have and they are on the mail truck that wrecked and got fire this morning on the PA turnpike. I hate contacts.

I have zero tolerance for people losing their temper at work. Unless you're literally in a life or death situation, calm your ass down. And I promise you all that I'm among the top five most hot-tempered people you will ever encounter, so if I can do this, anyone can.
I was going to apologize after lunch but my secretary just told me receptionist was in the kitchen telling a 2 others that I'm a fucking bitch.
Well alrighty then.
Seriously, I think you need to tread carefully.
You can't control what she does, you can control yourself. Speaking to people in a demeaning manner, regardless of how much they annoy you, is not okay.
You can move forward and not fall for some petty bs.
If she truly does not have the skill set to do her job to your standards (and your firms) then you need to document this going forward. You need to eliminate any desire to belittle her also or hell at least keep it to yourself.
Ok, points taken. I'll apologize after lunch as much as I don't want to. And yes his is a bad day for me (senior associate is giving notice) but that shouldn't be an excuse
I'm sorry you're having a bad day. I'm glad you're going to apologize. Having been a support person and dealing with disrespectful attitudes, I would have been really upset with that remark as well. I'm not surprised she's blowing off steam by talking to coworkers. It's not totally appropriate, but it is understandable.

I hope not. They said they lost so much mail in the fire.
