DESIDERATA
GO PLACIDLY AMID THE NOISE AND THE HASTE, AND REMEMBER WHAT PEACE THERE MAY BE IN SILENCE. AS FAR AS POSSIBLE, WITHOUT SURRENDER, BE ON GOOD TERMS WITH ALL PERSONS.
SPEAK YOUR TRUTH QUIETLY AND CLEARLY; AND LISTEN TO OTHERS, EVEN TO THE DULL AND THE IGNORANT; THEY TOO HAVE THEIR STORY.
AVOID LOUD AND AGGRESSIVE PERSONS; THEY ARE VEXATIOUS TO THE SPIRIT. IF YOU COMPARE YOURSELF WITH OTHERS, YOU MAY BECOME VAIN OR BITTER, FOR ALWAYS THERE WILL BE GREATER AND LESSER PERSONS THAN YOURSELF.
ENJOY YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS AS WELL AS YOUR PLANS. KEEP INTERESTED IN YOUR OWN CAREER, HOWEVER HUMBLE; IT IS A REAL POSSESSION IN THE CHANGING FORTUNES OF TIME.
EXERCISE CAUTION IN YOUR BUSINESS AFFAIRS, FOR THE WORLD IS FULL OF TRICKERY. BUT LET THIS NOT BLIND YOU TO WHAT VIRTUE THERE IS; MANY PERSONS STRIVE FOR HIGH IDEALS, AND EVERYWHERE LIFE IS FULL OF HEROISM.
BE YOURSELF. ESPECIALLY DO NOT FEIGN AFFECTION. NEITHER BE CYNICAL ABOUT LOVE; FOR IN THE FACE OF ALL ARIDITY AND DISENCHANTMENT, IT IS AS PERENNIAL AS THE GRASS.
TAKE KINDLY THE COUNSEL OF THE YEARS, GRACEFULLY SURRENDERING THE THINGS OF YOUTH.
NURTURE STRENGTH OF SPIRIT TO SHIELD YOU IN SUDDEN MISFORTUNE. BUT DO NOT DISTRESS YOURSELF WITH DARK IMAGININGS. MANY FEARS ARE BORN OF FATIGUE AND LONELINESS.
BEYOND A WHOLESOME DISCIPLINE, BE GENTLE WITH YOURSELF. YOU ARE A CHILD OF THE UNIVERSE NO LESS THAN THE TREES AND THE STARS; YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO BE HERE.
AND WHETHER OR NOT IT IS CLEAR TO YOU, NO DOUBT THE UNIVERSE IS UNFOLDING AS IT SHOULD. THEREFORE BE AT PEACE WITH GOD, WHATEVER YOU CONCEIVE HIM TO BE. AND WHATEVER YOUR LABORS AND ASPIRATIONS, IN THE NOISY CONFUSION OF LIFE, KEEP PEACE IN YOUR SOUL. WITH ALL ITS SHAM, DRUDGERY AND BROKEN DREAMS, IT IS STILL A BEAUTIFUL WORLD. BE CHEERFUL. STRIVE TO BE HAPPY.

SO IT TURNS OUT THAT THE SILENT FOURTH DAY CAUSED EVERYONE TO FALL ASLEEP FOR 3 DAYS. AND WE MISSED BACKWARDS TEXT CASP KOK DAY AND CYRILLIC CASP LOK DAY. OH WELL, MAYBE NEXT YEAR.
TODAY, THE SECOND-TO-LAST DAY OF INTERNATIONAL CASP LOK WEECK (YES, IT IS, WAIT FOR TOMORROW!) YOU SHOULD WORSHIP THE GOD OR GODESSS OF YOUR CHOICE, WHATEVER YOU CONCEIVE HIM OR HER TO BE, AS LONG AS IT IS NOT ERIS. OR WORSHIP ERIS IF YOU WANT, THATS OK TOO. AS LONG AS YOU'VE GOT YOUR CAPS LOK ON.
YOUR WORSHIP IS MORE EFFECIVE IF YOU POST IT HERE, IN ALL CASP NATCH.
TODAY IS ALSO CAPS LOK REDUNDANCY DAY.

ITS NOT CAPSLOCK DAY BUT I GOTTA RANT. I'VE HAD THREE MEETINGS THIS WEEK WHERE NOBODY SHOWED UP AND I HAD TO RESCHEDULE THEM. I GAVE 24 HOURS NOTICE, 48-72 HOURS NOTICE. MOST OF THESE ARE HELD WEEKLY ANYWAY. BUT TODAY TOOK THE CAKE WHEN ONLY ONE PERSON SAID HE'D GO, DID NOT, THEN SAID (A) MY MANAGER SAID IT WAS TOMORROW AND (B) MY MANAGER JUST STARTED A MEETING SO I HAVE TO GO TO THAT ONE. THEY ALL CLAIM THEY HAVE NO IDEA THEY HAVE A MEETING OR WHAT IT'S ABOUT UNTIL THE MEETING ALARM GOES OFF. THEY DO NOT READ ANYTHING.
THEN THE MANAGER EMAILED ME TO GIVE THEM 24 HOURS NOTICE BEFORE SCHEDULING AND I WANT TO WRITE BACK, "I DID GIVE PLENTY OF NOTICE, HERE ARE MY RECEIPTS," BUT I DON'T WANT TO START GETTING MYSELF IN TROUBLE AGAIN FOR ARGUING/FIGHTING BACK/DEFENDING MYSELF LIKE I TRIED AT THE LAST JOB, SO I SHOULD PROBABLY SHUT UP.
MY BOSS IS GONNA GO RIP SOME PEOPLE A NEW ONE, HOPEFULLY, BUT STILL, SHEEEEESH PEOPLE. THIS IS WHY I CAN'T MAKE DEADLINES.
