And this is a **PRIVATE MESSAGE to OG**

Nobody better reading this or Rule 11 - The Whoop Ass Rule will come into effect.

**Can you post discretely the names of the scum? It will make this so much less tedious**.

**NO PEEKING YOU THIEVING BASTARDS**

And no shit, remembering to check the sig box sucks bad.

Hmm. A quick status check informs me that:

I’m wearing a shirt;  
I’m in the same room as my boss;  
People expect me to do stuff.

Yeah, it \*feels \*like Monday morning. But is it \*really \*Monday morning?

Through the wonder that is international time zones, I have just finished my working Monday. My advice is to get out now while there is still time, the day moving towards you is a deeply sucky one.

I’m back (in more ways than one), and confiming.  
Oh, sweet Mafia…how I missed you. Keeping in mind, of course, that I can quit anytime I want.
