As requested Hillarious NickNames
for Cubicle Mate, Boss, and Admin Assistant:
Cubicle Mate--Army Dude (he was put into the Army to straighten up and fly right--and it worked but then again, unlike a lot of SKIDS on this forum, he has a brain) He learned networking/computers in the Army, went to Iraq to deploy the equipment, got the GI bill and has graduated with a degree in Computer Science.

O/T Work Vent--Mrs. Headlights Strikes Again
So late on Friday apparently Mrs. Headlights couldn't get the boss to do 100% of her work. The boss fobbed her off and told her to ask my cubicle mate how to do a certain procedure.
Now mind you I have been doing this procedure which is very tedious before my cubicle mate, a younger worker not yet 30, came into the fray. I taught him how to fix this problem but now this is supposed to be Mrs. Headlights' dept.
After my cubicle mate explained that this is a tedious procedure, he started to offer to do the work for her and that's when I stepped in.

As Was Suggested...Reviving the Skid Nicknames Post
Mine were: OSS=Pumpkinhead (he looks like a big white pumpkin with two blue dots for eyes--aka the "no soul" meme)
SD: VD (she seemed very precocious for her age and often posts photos of her licking other girls, guys,etc.)
YSS: Prince Hygiene (had ZERO hygiene and as far as I can tell, still does from the look of his grubby fingernails) aka the houseshitter. yes he literally shit ON my furniture and spread it all over the house when he didn't get his way at stb 7.
More ideas:
Damien/Damienette
Lizzie=Lizzie Borden

SEMI O/T Latest Radio Ads for Handyman/Contracting Services
have the theme of "I have kids now so I don't want to spend time fixing stuff."
UMMMM What the HELL is WRONG with having your KIDS LEARN FROM YOU IF YOU HAVE FIXIT SKILLS??!!!
they will get to learn about real life (unless you live in an apartment) and that the toilet doesn't always flush, appliances break down, there is painting, mowing, lawn care, repairing, etc. etc. to be done all.the.time!!!

Other Senior FurBaby Not so Good. UPDATE
I lost my Siamese blue point/lilac point female (approx 19 yrs old) end of February and now my male Bombay isn't doing so hot. He was put on hyperthyroid meds about 3 months ago which made a world of difference to his symptoms but now has become very lethargic over the past three days. He's approaching 13 yrs old and has had teeth problems (he just had six extractions about two months ago).

You Can't Make This Stuff Up!
Mr. "Neutral' (one of Chef's older half brothers) and his son, the Neanderthal, has been incognito lately. They usually only come around when they want something once or twice a year or so. He was supposed to contact us to tell us that Neanderthal got full custody of the children after his divorce (married one year--she had a kid from a previous relationship who appears to be "challenged")
Well from the social media pics:
1. Neanderthal didn't get full custody--appears to be 50/50 at best This is NY so he's most likely paying hefty CS regardless.

Kind of O/T Doc Martin
Anyone watch the show Doc Martin? They are airing the eighth season and they killed off Mrs. Tischel's husband, Clive.
Mrs. Tischel seemed to have fallen out of love with Clive a loooooong time ago and was just going through the motions. And yes, Mrs. Tischel's character is a coo coo, be that as it may. So when she was informed that he was dead due to a heart attack, she merely carried on without so much as a break in her stride.

Dressed To Enmesh
So Mrs. Headlights magically received a summer internship for her 22 yr old daughter in one of the other departments. I happened to glance out the window and they looked like the Bobsy twins. Except for the hairdos and mom's giant boobs, it was hard to tell them apart! They both wore matching grey short sleeved polo golf shirts and black skinny jeans. I did a double take!! I just can't imagine dressing like my 22 yr old daughter--daily coordinating outfits and such!!!
For a time, I worked with DD in a call centre and never once did I try to match outfits with her!!!
