feeling sassy

i have decided that i need a place to say all the sassy, sarcastic, cynical, and spiteful feelings that well up inside of me now and then. perhaps getting it out of my system will help me truly let go of it so i can get on with my life.

my goal is to keep these posts short and to the point; however, as you will note based on the content which may sometimes spill forth from my fingertips, that goal once in a while will be deftly missed.

inside voices, people!

[insert your preferred expletive here]!! seriously? it is called an "inside voice" for a reason. it is the volume at which normal people use while indoors. this should be audibly contrasted to an "outside voice" with which one may use while romping outdoors across a field or cursing out a ref at a football game.

in the workplace, an "office voice" may even be noticed. it is a hushed version of the "inside voice" just above what would be commonly considered to be a whisper. courteous professionals use this "office voice" while discussing both personal and work-related topics while within the office walls. by using this "office voice", these individuals acknowledge the fact that some people in the office may actually have work to do that requires some tiny amount of concentration and really do not care how great drinks were at such-and-such bar or why you, for the sixth time this week, have to ask how to access the department's shared drive.
