I watch the Conan show and he made a joke about this one night. I thought he made it up, so I looked online to see if it was actually true. I was astounded. A boss in Norway made a new policy stating that all women must wear a red wristband when on their period so that everyone would know that they needed more restroom time than others. It was only discovered when a worker's union was doing a study on tyrannical restroom rules among Norwegian companies. Obviously, the women were humiliated.
This same study uncovered other companies requiring employees to sign a visitor's book, or use a key card, and even went as far as to use video surveillance for restroom visits. I thought it was bad because I only have a certain amount of time to use each day for breaks, including restroom visits. Ha! I guess it's true what people say.....It could always be worse!~

Morning all
Would have been first but couldn't remember my password.up early as going in for that throat thing ur husband had Tina. Missing all of u xxoo
Good moaning TINA!!
DIANNE!!! Totally makes my day to see you this morning!!
We don't get monitered....yet. I have access to all the security cams....they BETTER NOT have one in there!!! Although we do have to sign in and out for our breaks. Well, SOME of us do....grrr!!!
Heading down to pick Sam up. Totally pissed that I have to do this at all. She texted me Saturday night and the boy broke up with her!!! Don't ya think he had an inkling that he was going to do this....say on Thursday?!!? That little *ucker is on my shit list!!!
DIANNE - Good luck at your appt today!!
oh everyone associated with Kabbalah wears those....
I guess there aren't a lot of Norwegians studying the mystical aspect of Rabbinic Judaism...
Tina: Good morning! You certainly look lovely today.
Good morning Dianne!! I hope you are doing well!!!
Jodi: Good morning, I am with you. It makes my day to see Dianne too! :)
Good morning DeeDee! :)
Jodi, be careful going to pick up Sam.
It's really snowy here. My furnace went out yesterday. I have the people coming today to look at it. I had a fire and a heater and the ex looked it over to see if it was something simple (which was very nice of him).
You all have a terrific day! :)
Good moaning Tina, Diane,Jodi,DeeDee & Bebbi!!
We are slowly digging our way out of the nasty snow storm!Most schools were closed today. We didn't get as much as predicted here in the middle of the state, but we got the rain first which made it all the nastier!
I am thankful we never lost power!
Diane, when did Mr Tina give you his "throat thing" & are you bragging or complaining 'bout it?
Jodi, that sucks about the boyfriend thing. Be careful out there!
Just got back. The interstate was fine....just the county hwys that sucked.
BEBBI - Sucks that your heat went out, but wasn't the fire nice? We had one in our franklin stove last night. TOASTY!!!
MARY - We got the rain first, too!! I feel your pain lady!
Off to take a nap. My co-worker that does the books opposite of me called me at 3:20 (ON MY DAY OFF!!!) because she was sitting in a ditch. So I had to go in and get the store ready to open before driving the boys to school and getting Sam. I'm wiped out!!!
Jodi: YES! The fire was fantastic and they fixed the problem so I have heat again (yay).
Mary: The school's are closed here today too. We got quite a bit but not the rain beforehand. I know how that is, that thick layer of ice under everything just sucks.
Jodi: YES! The fire was fantastic and they fixed the problem so I have heat again (yay).
Mary: The school's are closed here today too. We got quite a bit but not the rain beforehand. I know how that is, that thick layer of ice under everything just sucks.
Nice thing for me: COVERED PARKING..woo hoo..no scraping every morning..yay.
Bebbi, I keep my jeep in our garage and I can start it from in the house! (after I open the door of course lol) Love it!!
Its great to have a warmed up car to get into! I can start my car from inside the house too!!
I just say "I'M LEAVING IN 30 MINUTES!!!"
and its always warm and waiting....
Tina, I forgot to comment on your blog lol!
Let me see, I piss & shit whenever I want :):)
Well, when I DID work, I had to hold it until break time which would be all of 12minutes. The bathrooms were often far from my job. Once in a while I would ask a team member to cover me,,,don't miss it at all!!!
Tina I missed the moaning but good afternoon. Aren't you sick of being prettiest?
The red string idea is stupid in my book, plus, as DeeDee mentioned, a person could be confused for a follower of Kabbalah. What they REALLY need is a string that would alert people when a woman is menapausal or PMSing and God help them if they give her any flack for taking too long in the restroom. Of course, maybe the gun she's toting in her waistband would give her co-workers a clue.
HOdi Glad you returned safely from getting Sam. Boys are such shits sometimes. :(
Dianne I'm so happy to see you here today. Sorry about the throat thing. I bet it hurts to talk but we miss you typing here. Let us know what the doc says, kay?
Bebbi Yay for working furnaces! I hope you have a terrific day, too.
Mary LOL @ pissing and shitting whenever you want.
Living in that part of the country, I would think it would be a wonderful luxury to be able to start the car from inside your house.
DeeDee Isn't it wonderful to have the "little people" at your beck and call.
oh J/L...I don't consider the people that work in my house that way....they are more like family....they take good care of me and vice versa...
their terlits just have a cheaper grade of tissue than mine....
but they all have a great benefits package....unheard of salaries...I match their 401k's and they have access to the same great investment advice that I get...
My business philosophy has always been that you must recognize potential and reward it....thus bringing people up with you along the way.....
I shared this with Lisa early on and was very proud when in an interview about 3 months ago when asked about her success....she said....
"You don't look at the money thats coming to you....you make your people happy...then the rest will fall into place".....
God I miss Lisa more than I thought I ever could.....but I talk about her a lot...I am asked about her a lot...and that helps...
DEE DEE - So sorry I missed u earlier. Most Norwegians I know are Lutherans....ijs!!! I like your starter....would that be wg 1 or 2 that performs that task? ;)
DEE DEE - Oh, good grief we posted at the same time!! Glad you have your precious memories of your dear friend. I never tire hearing your stories ♥
SLIN - Yes they are!! And his mother is just as furious as I am!!
Good evening feathered friends!!
DIANNE...SOOOOOOOO good to see you! I've missed you bunches! I hope you are doing ok.
We are just being stomped on with snow and wind. The gusts are making visibility almost 0. I had to shovel a foot of snow from in front of my garage door so I could get in.
They kicked us out of the office at 4 so that we could get home before dark. AND, they may actually close tomorrow. They will call at 7am to let us know.
PRAY for a snow day for us!!
BEBBI...glad you have a cozy new home to call your own!
HODI...{{hugs}} to SAM. She is a beautiful girl and will have many more boyfriends knocking at your door!
DEE DEE...those are some odd looking shoes :)~
TINA...interesting blog. Hmmm, do they make the men put on a bone colored band when they have a hard on, so they can get extra bathroom time to jack off?
I remember in Jr and Sr high we had to tell the gym monitor when we had our periods so we could be excused from the showers or doing anything that interferred with our cramps!!!
MAUREEN!!....jack off!!?? OMG!
Jodi....
the white girls clean....Cooks husband is my Driver when I need one....hes a good handyman...keeps an eye on everything that men know about..... maintenance wise...

MO.....OMG OMG OMG!!! Jack off time!!! lol lol lol!!! I'll light a candle for your snow day ♥
DEE DEE - Thanks for the clarification!!
It's been a long ass day. Gonna hunker down for another frigid night.....overnight low of -7.
DIANNE - Let us know how your appt went today....ok?
G'night HODI. Sweet dreams! Thanks for the candle and prayer!

DeeDee Great philosophy!
Hodi Hunker down and stay warm.
MO LOL @ jack off! I hope you get to stay home tomorrow. I've been seeing that snowy mess on the news. It's scary out there.
Tina Don't you just hate it when you have to actually work. You probably aren't getting much knitting done.
Mo, your jack off comment is one of the funniest things I've read in a while!
Love the bone colored band idea!!!
MO Least favorite? Which one would that be?
Hi, EBJ!
Gotta run now. Got a combo Curves/Zumba class to try out. bbl
Good grief why don't they just stick a maxi pad to their forehead!!
Mo I was wondering about the men too although I would never have come up with your solution!LOL!
Hi Dianne!!!!
**waving madly**
Tina it will do you good to finally work for a change instead of farming while you're suppose to be working. Besides I'm sure some of those phone calls can be turned into a blog!
Since everyone seems to be giving weather forecasts, here's mine...54F, blowing like a mofo and raining like a son-of-a-bitch.
So I am going to bed and turn my fan on!! Nighty night!!
((HUGS)) Lynn D and Carol.
There seems to be a lot of jacking off in here! I wonder what Whabby would add to that?
As much as it hurts me to say something nice about Tina, here goes....she saved my ass today!!
I purchased Airline tickets for my Niece & I to Miami to get to our cruise ship in March. Tina caught a mistake I made on my Nieces ticket! I would have freaked if she was not allowed on the plane!
Thanks Tina.. I owe you!!
Enjoy your cd, I plan on doing the same :) Dontcha love inspirational words?
Mary: What can I add to Mo's comment? Well, I used to go into the bathroom of the sports club we used to belong to in Toronto when I was a teenager and jack off after taking a leisurely stroll through the men's locker room!
OK, you DID ASK what I could contribute! LOL!
Bear As if most straight men weren't paranoid enough! LOL
Whabby!! to the naughty matt!!! LOL!!
And we don't want to see any suspicious looking stains on that mat, either.
I knew Bear would tell us where he jacks off!
Justlin & EBJ LMAO!!!
Bear doesn't a lot of that kinda stuff go on at the Lone Star??
hee hee :)
Bear~ where do you jack off now?~
ha ha Tina! :)
Probably at the Lone Star!
Oh good porn!
Mo.. "jack off" lol
Whab.. and I knew you would run with it! (as ur pants are falling down)
Funny!
Oh yea.. I am sure the Lone Star has rooms just for those such doings!
Lots and Lots moaning going on...
Now it makes sense why tina says "good moaning" LOL
Dianne..
So good to see you.. I sure hope you feel better soon..
SWAK
Carol, cracked me up! "why tina says "good moaning"
WHABBY...LOL!! TMI!
JUST LIN...Only Angels Have Wings. It is not the type of movie I usually like and even CG is HOTTT in it, he is not charming, suave or debonnair. :(
But I am coming around! Maybe I will watch it again!
There is this 5 movie boxed set, of which this is one of the movies. I had taken it out of the library before and decided to reserve it again. When I went to get it, it was only a single movie and this was it. I asked the librarian where the other4 movies were and she said some of the libraries break up sets. I was sorely disappointed. The other movies are Talk of the Town, His Girl Friday, The Awful Truth and Holiday.
CAROL...nice to see you.
EBJ...:)
goodnight everyone
Goodnight Jennifer..
and goodnight to all including Jim Bob!
:)
Sweet dreams everyone! I am getting under my electric blankie, seems to me there is something wrong with this picture lol!!
Ah to be young again!
Mo, how bout instead of bone, the mens band comes in a wrinkly pink/tan color? ha ha!!
Nite to all!!
I also think the men's band should come with a built in locket that holds enough lube to get the job done!
