Honestly. I want someone to fess up. Did we or did we not as a family commit some kind of atrocities in a former life? Because Karma is kicking our ass, and handily. Somebody get on it, stat. I want a report on my desk in the morning.

I just heard from someone who shall remain nameless to respect privacy (but we used to be married), that the company that had changed hands more often this year than a blood diamond, just issued him, FOR THE SECOND TIME IN A ROW, a paycheck for $0. I kid you not. It wasn’t enough that they slashed salaries and are tying up commissions, but this guy’s poor ex-wife is out of work. They can’t get their kittens together, and two families are suffering the trickle-down.

How are we supposed to keep ourselves in Cheerios? How? In the name of God and all His backup singers, HOW??

P.S. I was one of the lucky ones that was halfway through the process of registering for a Clear Verified Identity Pass (so we wouldn’t have to wait in security lines while traveling through every airport on the West Coast), but then they thought they had a security breach and have shut down the applications. So, I’ve paid, but I can’t hop the lines. A Swiss fucking watch.
