My two little bird compatriots that I thought axed apparently haven't been, although I was told they had been on Monday, and half the people around here are acting like they have been. This makes things even more uncomfortable. I do not wish to "poach" on their territory. It's a huge breech in professional ethics, and I don't like being manipulated into it.
I still have a proposal to draft by tomorrow; this job was dumped on my desk last night and I haven't even had a chance to review the outline yet. I'm taking lunch first though. After this morning, I've earned it.
After lunch, I have to report my cell phone missing (yes, AGAIN; don't ask, I'm not in a good mood about it). Then, assuming the other departments leave me alone, I'll finish that proposal and also get some filing done. I need to file all the paperwork on recent catastrophes away so I can find it at a moment's notice. I have a feeling that much of this week's fire-fighting is going to be put under a magnifying glass at some later date.
At least the Socialist made out well with fighting his traffic ticket. He made a deal to get it down to 5 mph over the speed limit, and no points assigned. At least I'm not sucking the luck out of everybody else's days right now.
