Stupid Guest Tricks

Home-based Health care is the only job I've had which has zero rules regarding minimum hours. Then they constantly wonder why someone refuses to drive over an hour with tolls for a total of $20 pay.

Time to relax and have several parties! :D:

Well they probably did, but that still doesn't explain the 2 hr. shift.

:D: :D:

So.... "Banishment" is not located in Orange County?

No, although I greatly wish it was.. at least then I'd be warm!

Banishment, or at least my version of it happens to be located about 40 miles SW of Pittsburgh, PA. Although I'm starting to think this is more like purgatory then banishment..
..Or I enjoy saying "If there is a bright point of this state, I'm in the corner farthest from..."

Why cats race to join you in the bathroom:
1. They want you to pet them
2. They want you to dangle strips of toilet paper for them to chase
3. They want to watch the water swirl down after you flush
4. They want to play with the water when you wash your hands
5. They want to bite your toes when you can't easily get away!

No toilet paper is safe in my bathroom unless I can barricade the roll. Paper towels in the kitchen have to be locked up. Cat is now also being referred to as "Little Bastard."

We have a cat that'll total any loose TP roll, and who will eventually shred those in the package, but she leaves the ones on the roll alone. We used to have a squirt bottle that was pretty easy to aim up to six feet away, so I could zap her from clear in the kitchen when she went for the one downstairs. That and hanging the roll "backwards" did the trick.

She's never had any interest in the paper towels, though. Maybe because she doesn't get on the kitchen counters and that's about the only place we have them? She chews on the empty rolls, is all.

We had an old Tom (we did have him fixed but he was a couple of years old when he showed up) who thought spraying kitchen appliances was the coolest thing. He was an outdoor cat, but if he got in he headed for the kitchen, and it was not in hopes of snagging something tasty off the counter. I understand a lot of cats treated VCRs much the same way; the VCR guy who told me that theorizes they like the warmth but that doesn't explain his kitchen appliances obsession.
