Eeek! I like the guy who was calling you every 15 minutes starting at 8am. Yeah, that's a pretty major warning sign: "DANGER! DANGER! ASSHOLE ALERT!" What should an asshole alert sound like (just in case I'm ever hired to implement one...)? I'm thinking geese...flatulence, trumpeting elephants...maybe a combination of all of the above. The trigger would be tough; perhaps sensors tied to all the employees blood pressure, combined with an rfid tracking mechanism for the manager. If the vitals on the employees start spiking when boss-man walks in: ALERT! Maybe the head office is too busy reading your blog archives to give their okay on hiring you. Eeek!

I hear you on the burnout thing. I feel pretty good after my time off. Glad you’re feeling better! I hear you on the burnout thing. I feel pretty good after my time off.
