It's been a rough week at work with two co-workers having family emergencies. I always thought I would be older before I had to craft my first inter office/division condolence notice for the office.
If there was some sort of silver lining, one of the people that passed was a hard core Flames fan and one of the last things he did was to celebrate Calgary's win this past weekend.
"Poor planning on your part is not an emergency on my part"
If you left stuff to the last minute, do NOT throw it one my desk at the last moment and demand that it get done before my other tasks.

Crazy lady staffing the Safeway checkout.. getting some groceries and Jambalaya soup (mmm) and she scans the diet A&W root beer and says "that's nothing but sugar". "Um, no, there's no sugar, it's diet." "It's still got sugar in it" "There's zero calories, there's no sugar, it's all crazy chemicals." "Don't believe that, there's sugar".
Alrighty then.
