Meeting

Today we had an all-staff meeting. The kind where the CEO shows a too long PowerPoint presentation and spouts a lot of meaningless platitudes, interspersed with praising the salescritters while not even admitting the existence of anyone else in the company. You know the kind. From Dilbert if nothing else.

And for the first time in years I didn't leave the meeting feeling more disillusioned and cynical than I was when I got there.

Must be time to get a tinfoil-coated hat.

Writing!

For the first time in over a month, I seem to be able to write. Which probably means that the not-boss and not-on-call plan is working as intended. Yay!

It's not long, and it's not particularly good, but it is.

More specifically, it's a snippet suitable for teanna's "Writing Sound" challenge. It also happened to end up at exactly 911 words, which will short is kind of suitable.
