No idea what to do or where I’d even go
I say stay put. Last time you traveled you single-handedly brought COVID to Europe.

:haha:

Maybe I’ll go to tel Aviv. Love is contagious and god knows they need some of that

4% of his mortgage payment

My nemesis made the secretary cry today. She was crying all day, in fact

Have you ever made someone cry all day? That's some rough shit. My nemesis really must be pretty terrible

Did you stand up for the secretary and challenge your nemesis?

I didn't know this happened until the end of the day. I am almost always three to five minutes late for work and they both often show up fifteen to thirty minutes early. I want as little time with my nemesis as possible

What does your manager think of Nemesis making the secretary cry?

He's barely around. I don't think I've been in the same room with the dude for more than six minutes at a time in the entire year I've been working there. I haven't even seen the guy since Tuesday. He texted me mid-day Wednesday "checking in" and I gave him a rundown of the whole morning. He texted back "ty". That's the last word of him I've heard. He could be dead for all I know

Well maybe you could drop hints that Nemesis is destined to bathe in hellfire. Someone has to go into bat for this poor woman.
