they seem to have relaxed the rules about hooking personally owned devices to our work laptops -- but just for monitors and printers; keyboards and mice and etc are still not allowed, which is the thing I wish I had the most right now ![]() it sounds like maybe we're allowed to go pick them up from work though? ![]()

our CEO is trying to email the company every day about how well we are coping with WFH and essentials in office. today it included a comment about how my team has daily 30 mins stand-ups on Teams at 9:00 in the morning. i dont know where the gently caress that came from because that is not happening, and im still in bed at 9AM...

good news: the astrologers have determined that COVID-19 won't be so bad, because neptune is not in pisces (which is a prerequisite for any great plague) also the economy thing is just caused by a saturn-pluto conjunction and it will turn around once they move apart. everyone can relax

As if there wasn't enough bullshit to go around I somehow got charged for someone else's groceries yesterday, and they got substantially more than we did. I don't even know how the gently caress it happened, I was looking at the cashier's screen when we were ringing out and it displayed the correct total
