Ergonomics

Wednesday, Jan. 28, 2009 - 8:22 a.m.

Hey, thanks yesterday to DragPrincessAbby who let me decompress to her about some Robert and non Robert stuff.

I guess there's a level of safety when folks talk online as opposed to in person. Almost like it's easier to do so since there won't be live and direct rejection to deal with or something.

Anyway, Abby, thanks again.

I'm looking at footage of snow and snow and more snow and cold and snow.

It would be interesting to know how many global warming strategic meetings have been cancelled due to snow.

Dear Blur: I'm sorry it took me so long to notice what a cool song 'Coffee & TV' is.

Thanks for doing it.

Are there any companies out there who would like a prominent mention in my blog in exchange for providing an ergonomic workstation for my husband?

His company moved to a new building with smaller and nearly unusable cubicle furnishings and John can barely move. He has osteoarthritis in both hips and needs a standing workstation.

He's been sending letters and emails to the human resources department of his work on and off for THREE FUCKING YEARS now and they're just kind of not doing what he has asked.

Currently, his company is in direct violation of the Americans With Disabilities Act.

I'm finally undertaking the cage-rattling that seems to consistently be ignored whenever my husband does it -- and I'm starting over here at the ADA site itself.

Any leads are heartily appreciated.

Today, my chores include cleaning up that strange pile of everything around my recliner, and packing my suitcase because I'm heading to Anaheim again for Old Buddy Dave's birthday.

All right, there ya go. Have a good Wednesday.
