  1. I FINALLY got the time to fix my computer issues, so I can access everything I haven’t been able to for a few months.  Now to get work under control, and I’ll be golden!

  2. I forgot to mention in the announcement that I am waiting for ANY arcade system to be compatible to the latest version of the board.  

  3. I have now lost 34 pounds since July 11!

      Running my ass off at work.  Different kind of physical activity for the work thing.

      Ah… I was afraid it would be something like that lol. Nothing worth getting is ever easy. It’s an amazing achievement. :)

      Wow! Congratulations!

  4. I need a day off from work.  I need to be able to take a loooong weekend even.  HAH.  Hah, hah, hah.  Not likely in the near future :angry:

      Not a doctor, but I’ll prescribe a week off for you.

       

    3. DemonGoddess

      Yes, getting OT.  But ye gods, it doesn’t make up for it after awhile.

      “Irritation pay” should be a thing. :)

  5. I need to spork out my eyes! :D

      Oh, true; but that requires one to crowd out the bad memories of what one’s seen, sadly; and to pay so little heed to it that it just disappears.
      Course, a genuine apology to one’s Maker is always a plus in odds of restoring sanity- but I do understand what you mean, DemonGoddess.

      At least you have filters for those logs. The cross referencing can be brain melting.  It would be more productive to use the spork on the the object of our frustrations. 😜 

    4. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      Yeah, kind of have filters.  Going into the raw data and sorting it in a way that I can pinpoint a little quicker the incursions.

  6. I really, REALLY wish shit would stabilize at work.  Two twelve hour days in a row :bash:

    1. GeorgeGlass

      GeorgeGlass

      Gyaaah. I had a week like that recently; not fun.

    2. Desiderius Price

      Desiderius Price

      I sure hope you’re at least getting paid overtime....

    3. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      Yeesh… Isn’t there an end to sight in all this overtime???

       

  7. I will be very happy when July 31st gets here.  That’s when the extra $600 a week for unemployment finally expires.   That may sound horrible, but I’m on the opposite end of that.  I have worked through this entire thing, and the only applicants I’ve gotten for my critically short staffed store, have been applying for the unemployment requirement that they do so.  Have only had one day off since November 14th.  ONE.  Plus, I’m already on schedule for a minimum of 80 hours a week, and if anyone calls off, I get to cover it.  Because I don’t have enough staff.  So my average work week is more like 90 hours or better.  Awful damn tired of people working the system.

      Egads. Hope you go from understaffed to just staffed soon.

    3. DemonGoddess

      We should have, between full and part time, 15 people.  We have 8.

  8. I will do the software upgrades I’m supposed to as soon as I get a minute to breathe…. :rofl:

      yup, 12 hours yesterday, 17 the day before, no days off for the foreseeable future.  At least until we get our new hires in and trained.

    3. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      But you have new hires, and hopefully it means an end in sight. And in the meantime, let us know how we can help.

    4. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      Keep doing what you’re doing, you guys are saving me!

  9. I’m not sure what CAUSED the outage, but it’s now fixed.  It looks like our ISP had to reboot the server after I opened a ticket

    1. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      I managed to miss that outage. I was working on a spreadsheet, and then went out with the pup. I’m actually at my lake place now, and using my ancient and incredibly slow laptop, so I probably would have thought it was just my technology acting up again. 

      At least it was a quick resolution!

    2. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      Apparently we had a failing hard drive.  it finished failing this morning while I was at work, but Nexcess, being the excellent provider they are, had it fixed very quickly

    3. Desiderius Price

      Desiderius Price

      Well, if it’s like my recent internet outage, a squirrel did it.

  10. It was an eventful October, and it doesn’t look like it’ll be easing up.  :angry:

      Stupid real life. I say we lobby to be put back into the Matrix and forget all of this ever happened.

    3. JayDee

      We are in The Matrix. Problem is, it’s being run by EA hence all the grinding and microtransactions.

      @JayDee all of a sudden I'm regretting all those Sims I've tortured over the years...

  11. Keep yer fingers crossed that we get staffing issues finally settled for where I work.  It has been BRUTAL.  Sixty hours worked since Saturday.  And I’m not done.

      I feel your pain.  Training the newbies – who are younger than my children.  As if the work wasn’t exhausting enough!  Good Luck DG!

    4. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      Yep, get paid OT.  But, it would be NICE to be awake to enjoy it!  Ah well.  Going into my third hell week, and then things should be evening out a bit.

  12. Keep your fingers crossed for me, looks like I actually get a day off Thursday!

      It’s been a looooong month.  HATE being short staffed.  ugh.

    4. Arian-Sinclair

      Arian-Sinclair

      I feel you there. I remember being short staffed almost every night back when working at the doughnut place for my last job.

  13. Looks like I finally got around my browser issues.  Now to reset up email

    1. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      Congratulations! And Happy Thanksgiving! :hug:

  14. One flower bed weeded,  four to go..

    1. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      I took the day off from one job, and I still have dinner to finish and a ton of laundry that needs doing….

    2. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      Yikes!  I got my clothes in the wash, and got called into work to finish second

    3. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      You have got to be kidding me… they can’t let you have ONE day off????

       

  15. So I have another ticket in, because now chat says the license has expired, which it hasn’t, and they need to fix that on their end.  *sighs*

  16. So very glad my work week is over, for a day.  hahahah.  And now I have the fecking flu. :bash:

      Oh, well, hells…

      I’ve been sucked in (finally!) by Dragon Age Inquisition. It’s actually amazing, and addictive.

      I need a “doesn’t like this but feels bad about this” button. Get well soon!

  17. So we had another walk off, no great loss, the girl was LAZY and sporadic with attention, but still…..

  18. So, between the tooth of DOOOOOM (which I pulled yesterday), and my crazy work schedule that I’m adjusting to, it’s been a looooooong couple of weeks!

      It’s certainly worth looking into.  By the way, have I mentioned how much I love having a job where I get paid every week like I’m supposed to?

    3. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      THAT part is awesome! :D

    4. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      yes, it really is!  Now I only have two past due bills, and those shouldn’t be past due for much longer.

  19. So, I get to play catchup again, starting later tonight after work.  Ugh.  Of course, working 45 hours in the last 4 days MIGHT have something to do with it.  

  20. So, I’m on vacation this week.  Not going anywhere, just getting caught up.  Caught up the yard, and am now working on the house.  And the archive. :D

      On your vacation? That’s really friggin evil. Tell them you’re in Hawaii. 

    3. Desiderius Price

      Desiderius Price

      @DemonGoddess  IMO, a vacation is a vacation.   Too bad about the accident involving the phone and a sledgehammer….  Or, dismiss the call as a scam. 

    4. Desiderius Price

      Desiderius Price

      Now, if you still have to go in, make it fun.   You could leave an empty roll of plastic wrap in the restroom.  Or, go for the game/adventure with a toilet paper scavenger hunt.

  21. So, I’ve finally gotten a day off, after many 12 to 14 hour workdays, and guess what I did?  Mostly I SLEPT.  Slowly getting other stuff caught up here now.

      I’m planning on sleeping next weekend. ::nods::  Yes, indeed, for more than 4 hours and without any alarm clocks going off next to me.

    3. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      Can’t avoid the alarms, have to get up a certain time daily to be sure my cat gets his shot! :D

    4. BronxWench

      ElderSpawn helps with pup meds. :)

  22. So, like everyone else, I would really, really like to put this nasty hacking crap behind us.  Unfortunately, it does take time to find the likely culprits, whether individuals, or what they used.  I am making progress, but please understand I’m reading these things line by line by line

    1. JamesRyderErotica

      JamesRyderErotica

      Your dedication is very much appreciated. I can’t wait until I can post again. I’ve got a few new stories lined up and some new chapters of my other stories ready to go. When the time comes I’ll be waiting with all the new smut B-)

    2. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      Great!  What complicates things is my real job.  Been working hell hours again, so adjusting to that new schedule so I can focus on this again

    3. pronker

      pronker

      It must be a bear to work full time and mod and try to bug fix, which I appreciate … best wishes and Happy Halloween to you, pronker

  23. So, Monday was 12 hours, Tuesday was 13 hours, Wednesday was 12 hours, yesterday was 9 ½, and today is 12 plus.  arrrrrrrrgggggggghhhh

    1. WillowDarkling

      WillowDarkling

      That doesn’t even sound remotely sane… or legal, honestly. :hug: 

    2. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      At least for the daft one, it’s seasonal. Commencement has meant many, many 16 hour shifts. He went to work yesterday at 7am and isn’t home until tonight at 5pm…. they are short-staffed, too.

    3. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      Well, at least I get overtime and I’m not salaried.

  24. So, my boy goes back to the vet yet again for a glucose curve on Monday.  Hopefully, the dosage worked out on Friday is the one that’ll work.  It has certainly made a marked difference in his overall behavior!  He’s doing things he hasn’t felt like doing for the last month!

  25. So, tinkering with the new stuff.
