Work rant, part 2: The correct time to close restrooms for cleaning is not during lunch hours or during peak departure times.

Or first thing in the morning. Whenever I walk into A3 (usually around 640a), the men's restroom is closed for servicing.

Work rant, part 3: When I rule the world, all documents sent for re-review will have all changes (including deletions) clearly marked. If they are sent as Word documents, one can often find this via "track changes," but that is not the case for PDF files.

You can't always do this if you are doing master and sub-documents. Track changes screws up sub-document inclusion. (Obviously, that's not your case since they are distributing Word). When folks forget to track changes, I use another useful feature: Compare Documents. You can also compare documents in PDF.

Work non-rant: My promotion finally came through.

Congratulations. My manager walked in Thursday to let me know I got a PRF!

One final note on work: We got an announcement about a new program for charitable contributions. It included the information that United Way contributions had ceased in February. Maybe I should look at my pay stubs more closely, since I hadn't noticed that.

I knew about that (because I enter everything into Quicken). What annoyed me about the new program is you can't see what charities you can support without creating an account at the new service.
