So I had to take a "Workplace Harassment" seminar yesterday. A friend of mine actually taught it, and although she did a wonderful job........................this whole harassment thing is getting out of hand if you ask me!!!

No doubt, there are types of harassment there should be laws against, like if my boss tells me.............. ok wait, lets not use MY boss, cause I'm getting visuals I don't want.
If your boss tells you to either blow him or get fired, OR better yet says....You want a raise? On your knees!!! Ok well that's wrong and he should be bounced, and fined, and all of that good stuff.

But you tellin me that if you are going to a business trip in Vegas, and you want to get a bunch of the guys (and girls, hey why not.....some of us wouldn't mind goin!) to go to the strip club at 10pm waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay after business is over for the day, THAT is harassment, because you MIGHT offend a woman who doesn't want to go, or make some guy who's whipped by his wife feel uncomfortable because he's not aloud to go! Think about this for a second. WHY would the company plan a business trip in VEGAS, they city of sin????? WHY? SO THEY COULD BRING THEIR VENDORS TO STRIP CLUBS........THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT!!!

There is no such thing as being PC in Vegas....if your the type to get offended, man that shit can happen to you just walkin down the street!!!

OH, and being a woman, I'm offended at the accusation that I'm going to be offended at every freakin off-color thing that's anywhere around me.
Come on......I mean we want to be treated equal, we want to be thought of as strong enough to run companies, but mean while.....everyone has to now walk around on eggshells making sure that they don't say the wrong thing, or I'm going to just be soooo offended that I'm going to sue everyone. *rolls eyes* I mean these rules that the companies have now are just ridiculous, I mean if there is a POTENTIAL to POSSIBLY offend someone then THAT'S IT........HARRASSMENT!!!

If someone starts to flirt with me (and I don't like it, which BTW if I was single I MIGHT!!) I have the ability to be like, hey dork leave me alone, I aint into you!!! DONE! If he keeps it up, I bring it up in front of a bunch of his friends that he's all fallin all over me and I think he's a dork, and he'd be so embarrassed, that it probably won’t happen again. If that doesn't work, Mr. Maniacal could just meet him after work and explain to him how he might want to stay away from me.

We are sooo interested in making sure that our children, and everyone in this country is not offended, and it soo safe from everything that we are turning into a bunch of whining, anxious, dependant, spoiled, pussys (is that enough adjectives for ya?)

It's GOOD to be offended once in a while....

It's good to get hurt once in a while.....

It's good to get dirty once in a while..............

It makes ya stronger!!!

3 fuzzy guys and a foot of snow....

Well, today has been busy. We got another cat and are about half way through the foot of snow.

Friend of mine needed some help with their cats. 5 to be exact.
Long story short they were in the shelter, and well........
........my fiends and I couldn't let them stay there, so now they are scattered around in spare rooms of friends that would take them. My spare room being one of them.

I got the friendliest one, and he's a purring machine.....
I decided to let him out to check out the place.
And now the two cats I already have are puffed out to look like little fuzzy pillows
The're not happy at all about it.
A couple minutes of swating and hissing, and.......now he's back in the bedroom
Three males in the house is about two males too many!
They'll get over it!

OK, Mr Maniacal just came back in from his second round of shoveling. He's so good!
Now it's time for snacks, movie and a nice fire until 4 more inches fall and he needs to go back outside and start over again.

ta ta for now.
