    Surviving Work

    (rules as they come to me)

    1. If a meeting has a specified end time, leave at that time, even if the meeting isn't over.
    2. If a meeting does not have a specified end time, call the meeting convener and ask when the meeting will end. Leave at the specified end time.
    3. Bring something to work on in case the meeting starts late.

    why I am disgusted by Paris Hilton

    posted Thursday, 7 May 2009

    From an msnbc.com story on a lawsuit involving Paris Hilton:

    She also acknowledges she’d never seen her own cell phone bills until attorneys showed her one in an attempt to figure out who she was calling. Asked who gets her bills, she replied, “I don’t know. I’m assuming, like, whoever pays my bills. I never ask about that stuff.”

    and

    Hilton was one of eight executive producers for the movie, though she acknowledged she was a bit shaky on what that meant. “I’m not sure what a producer does, but — I don’t know, help get cool people in the cast,” she said.

    This is an adult? She doesn’t knew who gets and pays her bills? She’s an executive producer and doesn’t know what that means? (Hmmm, kind of like running for VP and not knowing what a VP does, but I digress.)
