So I was just on the phone with a vendor. He was working at a wastewater site in NY, and apparently it just had an explosion. Haven't seen anything the news websites yet, but I keep refreshing. I could hear sirens in the background when he answered...

There's a lot more hazards in wastewater treatment than most people realize. Methane is one of them. It can build up in a tank headspace or low areas and find an ignition source... boom.

Dear Work,
i hate that I have 5 meetings today about a project that i'm working on that is beyond my normal job responsibilities. I now spend every weekday evening doing my primary job role while listening to people argue on conference calls and in meeting rooms.


Love,
James

I thought NSFW meant Not Something For Whites... so I went to look at that on ebay and got a message from the IT dept. saying they need to see me about my internet usage. they copied my bosses on the email too. I didn't know it was Not Safe for WORK until I googled that ****!

Privacy screens...if you need to have that at work, you prolly shouldn't be looking at whatever you're trying to hide. I hope you do realize that anything you do on the work computer is considered their property. jsut saying.
