Dear Paul Newman,
I just want to thank you for all of your cool films over the years. :cool: & your non film work. I'm sad to see you passed away today but understand you're probably out of pain now. (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/7639614.stm)
Thanks again
Dear Self,
You need to stop signing up for things. Especially things you don't really like to do.
For instance, signing up on a whim to run a workshop/discussion with a group of your peers tomorrow...yeah, it's stuff like that which you need to stop. Because now it's midnight, you need to be up in six hours, and you still have no idea how you're going to structure your session. (But at least you've found your permanent markers and SuperSticky Post-Its.)
Now, stop procrastinating, print out the relevant docs and make some notes. You can only wing this up to a certain point. Dork.
Love you lots,
Me.
Dear Sheesh,
Thanks for being a part of my life and bringing your insanity to my sometimes uptight world. Blushing, laughing, crying because I laughed so hard. You were a great friend to Mom and then to me, we will miss you loads. Shine on and be free of illness and pain.
Love ya!
Ama
Dear Fraggle,
First of all, we call you that because you look like that red headed puppet from Fraggle Rock. Secondly, you need to leave me alone. I am sick and tired of your rude, crude and socially unacceptable behavior. I understand that you think that you are the answer to every male fantasy but I assure you that even if that were true here on Earth, you're "allure" does not work on me. And while we're on that subject, you need to stop telling people that I should be a guy so that I will fall in love with you and marry you. Refer to the previous statement and add that I'm not having a sex change operation. I'm a girl and I like it that way. And I'm permanently partnered to someone who hates you because of how you talk to me.
You have insulted me, harrassed me, embarrassed me, and even dislocated my thumb you red headed harpy from hell and while I don't understand why you still have a job I'm telling you to knock it off!!!
And since I'm on a roll I mention something else...I am a clinical assistant. You, regrettably, are an RN and therefore outrank me but that does not give you the right to ignore your patients. I routinely have 25 other patients and 4 other RN's that I have to answer to so you need to get off your *** and care for your patients. If I can't take them to the bathroom when they call because I'm busy then you have to do it. If they need cleaned up, it is your job to do that just as much as it's mine if I can't get there. I understand that you can do my job but I can't do yours, but that's not my problem. If you can find another RN out there to lick your a## and follow you around doing the "aide" work as well as help you do your "RN" work then have it. But until you find some nurse willing enough to sacrifice her self respect and dignity to be your lap dog I suggest you get with the program and take care of your patients.
One more thing, the next time you come up to me and tell me that any child that my partner and I have will not "really" be mine and therefore "invalidating" me as a parent and saying that my 10 year relationship is not considered valid because we're not a legally recognized couple I'm going to return the dislocated joint thing but i'm not stopping at your thumb.

(I'm sorry TE for the angry nature of this post, but I do feel better for having "gotten it out")
OMG, Gray. You need to contact the HR department about that harassment.
Karen
Gray, sending you hugs.
dear you... making $90K who does nothing and who is in the cafeteria now eating breakfast. i hope you are enjoying getting away with this. i really don't know how you do... how you sit in your cube in front of me and read the paper all day and make $90K while others are our team are working our butts off. i hear the new boss has her eye on you... but you have been doing this for years, somehow i think you will continue to get away with it.
i guess that's why you are cocky... because you get away with so much.
i need to let it go... but it bothers me that i have a plate full of work and you continue to do nothing and make more than me. if you ever got fired, i will not shed one tear... because you are a person who does not deserve this job:mad:
Dear Congressional Leader,
Do what's right, not what's popular.
Dear sundial,
I hope you are not holding your breath. ;)
Dear interim-GM,
Are you aware that the company employee handbook states no solicitation of interest in personal organizations that use your work time or another employee's work time?
Are you aware that the corporate e-mail policy states that it cannot be used to solicit support for charitable endeavors?
I know you are aware that our company has ways to provide corporate support of run/walk charitable events because you have been the management sponsor for these, but this time you are soliciting for your own family team.
Are you aware that you are setting yourself up for potential bias and retaliation issues?
JDRF is a fine cause. I've contributed to them in the past and will continue to do so, but your name will NEVER be attached, and I will, at the minimum, have a personal verbal conversation with my own director. I hope this will be the last time I have to mention this to management.
I did not solicit support from my fellow employees for the recent MS150 ride due to these policies. As I have no non-work contact with these people, they are not a source of donation for my causes. The same goes for my relationship with you.
Consider this my vent and my warning.

I am a recent convert to CO2 usage on the road. I have observed that my CO2 inflated tires do not hold pressure as long as pumped tires. I thought it was just me, that I'd done something wrong, but I guess others have observed the same thing.
I resisted using a CO2 inflator and always carried a Road Morph pump with me (which is a very nice pump, imo). Unfortunately, the RM does not fit on my new Ruby and I was forced to carry a mini-pump. It works but it's a MUCH greater pain the in rear. So, I pulled the CO2 inflator out of moth balls and now carry it and a few cartridges on my bike as well as the mini pump for back-up. It's a compromise: neither one by themselves is an ideal solution.
Another thing: those little empty CO2 canisters are recycleable. Any empties I might have after a ride are put right into our recycle bin for weekly pick up and we've had no complaints so far.
Dear Neighbor,
When the trumpet sounds, I won't be here.
Oops! Obviously, I posted the above note to the wrong thread. :o
Gee, and I wondered why I didn't see it where I *thought* it would show up!
Dear Shallow Person,
I really don't care what celeb is thin. Who we know or which celeb has gained weight. I really don't care to hear how little you supposedly eat or how much you claim to work out. The compliment on my weight loss was nice because you were the first person to notice but at the same time I don't care how you see me. I really like you but at the same time I am sad that your life is so caught up on image. I wish you could love yourself a little more it would be so much healthier.
Signed,
Tired of listening.
Dear people at work,
I'm going on medical leave in 3 days. In that time I need to be sure my minion is comfortable with what he has to do, my open projects are either finished or someone knows what to do with them, have a couple of different meetings, and meet with my neurosurgeon. Requesting that I design a brand new database "before I leave" is the stupidest thing I've heard. Do you think I wave a wand and "zing" there's what you want, or that I magically pull these things out of my a**? How stupid are you people!! :mad:
Dear snap,
Surely your computer has an FMB. No????? ;)

Dear Vision,
Please don't get worse. I know you aren't that nad but considering I went 24+ years with 20-20 I don't like your prescription doubling in one year. Pooh on you.

Dear politcal canididate:

You're getting fast! Is it the times? Will it come back at me because I felt a twinge of satisfaction hearing him announce at a staff meeting (a previous FWB that lasted over a year, and was really a jerk that liked to twist the knife, knowing I had developed feelings for him...:rolleyes: Note to self: FWB is a bad idea for me!!!) that he was engaged to a married woman??
:p
Yeah, hey Snap, design me a database before you go, willya? I don't have time to write a specification or talk to you about it, just make it like that one only different. You know what I mean.Quote:

What are you, negative? Not a team player?

Dear Mimi - I suspect it's a Friend with Benefits, but I could be off.

Google knows all. I did a search on FWB . It came up with Friend with Benefits.Quote:

2. When two people aren't officially going out but have sex anyway.
3. friends w/benefits- when two can make a mess (sexually, mentally, and otherwise) and not have to clean it up

I think my computer has had all of those at one time or another... usually the latter two happen after too many of the first one...
Dear Guy in cube next to me,
Would you please quit cussing at your computer. I'm tired of the outbursts. Yell at the guys in IT if you have to yell at someone. Try shutting down your game program, and private email - both of which you seem to have open all the time. Maybe then your work project will go smoother.
Thank you.
Send your cube neighbor to sit by my cussing, off key singing, random outburst one. It would be good times for all.Quote:

Dear Autumn Weather,
I know, I know, it's late October, this is Norway, it's time for you to start throwing your weight around and raining and sending big strong gusts of wind to try and knock me off my bike.
But please, oh please - we were having such a great time... - could we just have a few more of those sun-sodden days full of golden light and crunchy yellow leaves everywhere before winter sets in? Pleasepleaseplease, pretty please with sugar on?

- not ready for winter
I did. See post #1548.Quote:

And yes, if you hassle me about why I sent your stuff back, unrepaired, and you don't seem to get it, I WILL say the following "How would you like to handle a stranger's dirty laundry?" Don't tell me I"m tactless, you are the one that sent me your icky ski coat.

yes, people ARE this clueless and gross.
