Well I finished RDR2.
( Spoilers )And now I shall go look for fic, and most of it will probably be Arthur/John, and a lot of it will probably be het, and a lot of it might not be very well-written, but my God, I shall look at it and I shall hope.
This
Terbil Draem seems quite appropriate for our political situation at the moment. And while we're on the subject of Terbil Draems, since I might not ever talk about them again, if I could frame
this one and hang it on my wall, I would.
At work I'm having to constantly leave notes for the other receptionists who don't follow the current car parking policy and don't make sure we always have spaces in case we need them, and give people spaces when they really shouldn't and could if they wanted to just say no, and today the Monday/Tuesday woman responded to my notes from yesterday about how she'd given away a space she shouldn't have by saying "Okay, but people are always moaning about all the empty spaces, so shouldn't that be addressed?", when I copied her in on an email quite recently where someone brought that up and I responded - with great care and effort - as best I could, and I forwarded everything on to our manager and asked him to look into it and he hasn't, and left a note - with great care and effort - for the other two receptionists telling them I'd done this and how I/we couldn't really do anything else, and I don't think she really cares about that, she just wants to make her job easier by giving away a space she shouldn't rather than arranging a different space. And my other note to her was about a package that was on reception that hadn't been logged on our packages/mail form, and she said she
never logs packages on there unless they're for IT, because one person requested that recently, and that's absolutely not how the rest of us do things or how I was told to do things, and I checked with the post room to make sure that was how we should do things and it is, and she obviously hadn't checked with the post room because she just left a note saying 'if things have changed, I'll do it differently'. And I'm not her manager or the other receptionists' manager, and I'm not the Head Receptionist and they're not paying me to be, and I don't really want the responsibility or stress of telling the other receptionists how to do things so they work for
all of us, and I don't really know what to do about it except tell my boss, who generally doesn't do anything when I tell him things like this.
