Hey, great. Another euphemism. I’ll add “ate my hamster” right below “killing kittens” 😃 Welcome **Torgo**! ---

Don’t worry. Today’s offer was: join the SDMB and get a free Heimlich manoeuvre coupon. I just hope it’s not going to be preformed by that fiercely looking goat in the corner which has been eyeing me the whole night\*. \*It’s 6.a.m. in our part of the world ---

Oh, don’t mind Felton. He just watches. Most of the time. You aren’t a brunette, are you? Because he _loves_ brunettes… ---

> [@Torgo ate my hamster](#): > > sleeping: it can be done, but does your company cover the medical insurance and is there a chance of flexible working hours? Flexibility? _Flexibility_, you say? THERE ARE NO ACCOMODATIONS! No leeway! And what precious few allowances we get are earned by the back-breaking, spirit crushing work we’ve been forced into. We toil day and night, jumping at the moment’s rest permitted for the few minutes until the next mod’s shift begins. Oh, it’s _horrible_! And at night, the ice-admins come… ---

Goatee envy in a goat? I think we have a paper here, folks! 😃 Don’t make eye contact, and keep in mind that if he gets rowdy, he can be calmed by whistling _Tristan und Isolde_. Start from the beginning. ---
