In order to preserve a more perfect record of the terrible, terrible things I say on a regular basis I am going to post them here, in writing.
A note for children who may read this:
Grownups have jobs. They spend a lot of time at those jobs and over time they become friends with the people they work with. As a result, they may say things to one another with humor. This is called banter. Banter is humorous discussion shared between friends that when taken out of context can sound horrible.
Episode 1:
Brad is the CEO of Stardock. Kristin is Stardock’s general manager (the #3 spot in the entire company, #2 held by Angela Marshall, the COO). Long ago, she was a technical writer. Long ago, Brad had a job that involved cleaning “stuff” off mechanical shovels that repaired sewers. Many episodes will touch on these topics.
Kristin: I have dreams you know! Dreams of success!
Brad: Well, if you ever want to be more than a technical writer you better get that email process document done soon!
Kristin: My dreams go far, far beyond that!
Brad: Senior Document Technician?
Kristin: Even more?
Brad: Executive, Senior Document Technician?
Kristin: Maybe…
Brad: Well that job is reserved for a MAN. Not some future baby making factory!
(a pause)
Kristin: I’m calling dibs on your desk.
Kristin (to viewers): And that kids, is how *I* became the owner of Stardock.
