Boss: Why is your work only 80% complete?

Me: Oh, yes! There’s a very good explanation for that.

In my last performance review, you noted that I was exceeding all expectations, but that you were only giving me a 4 out of 5 because you “never give 5s” because “there’s always room for improvement.”

As a result, I’ve taken the initiative to deliver at 4/5 capacity to ensure I’m performing according to your expectations.

As we’ve already established, I’m easily capable of performing at and above 100%, so please let me know once you’ve adjusted my performance rating to a 5 and I will adjust my performance accordingly.

@Alice Oh, the perfect toot. Can i boost that like once a day automatically?

@halva That's a whooping 100% better than politicians! I love indie devs, if i go through enough of them, i *could* succeed!

@VeroniqueB99 This throws me into very romantic blood hound gang thoughts.
You're a gem.

@Alice Why would you apologize, you only help the good along on a chaotic timeline. A work of art is a work of art, you surely don't do lame "it needs context" stuff.

@cridge17 Haha, nothing i wouldn't do. But they were blasted into 1000 ears, imagine if 500 people hear me...

Hmm, getting drunk from drinking alcohol. Does anyone else feel this or is it just me?

@yourautisticlife A toot that makes me shudder, for how little likelyhood of that there is.

@interfluidity Yeah, i was alluding to the problem of ethics not being on everyones mind, least of all on the mind of those steering society.
Since that goes on for quite a while, i was thinking that quoting land owners (that was the US founding story, correct?) might not be the most effective message for promoting ethical priorities.

@MaryAustinBooks Well, the oil mafioso is connected to our own mafiosos, so i guess that makes sense.

I always say those people are closer to each other than they are to any of their constituents, even if their constituents would not speak even one shared language.

@spaf

@VeroniqueB99 And the El Salvador camps are the room where you get the cold hose?

@swampgas What about rockers that are bottoms themselves?
(Sorry i don't know the scene well, might be a dumb question)
