Be Yourself

I know, it’s a tough job sometimes–but if you don’t do it, who will?

Why Am I Like This, pt. X

The contents of a fun-size bag of Skittles, arranged in precise rows and sorted by color.
Eating sequence: top to bottom, right to left. One of each color first, then two different colors at a time, etc. Leave one of every color for last and eat them all at once.

Office Problems, pt. II

Every office building should have a cozy, dimly-lit room with couches and a couple desks where you (1) aren’t allowed to make noise, and (2) are allowed to take a nap.

You think I’m joking, but no–it would be for accessibility! There areΒ lots of flavors of neurospicy other than mine that need some peace and quiet sometimes, and there are also times when the best thing you can do for your productivity is…take a nap. Rest isn’t a sign of laziness! Also, you don’t keep lazy people from avoiding work just by banning lazy-seeming behavior! Productivity should be measured by (gasp) how much work you actually get done, not how much time you spend looking busy!

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

*meme is about ADHD*

Underheard

Sometimes I worry that I’m losing my hearing from listening to my music too loud. Then I do something like accidentally mute my headphones trying to turn down the volume when they’re already at the lowest possible setting, and I stop worrying.

(For an hour or two.)

Office Problems

Dear employers: if your workplace has a cafeteria, your employees should be able to eat there for free. Why have them pay for it? They’re literally just handing a chunk of their paycheck directly back to you, except now you’ve both lost money because it’s been taxed twice.

Am I missing something? This seems like a no-brainer to me.
