Now for my rant of the day.
There is one of my employees I loath. Not dislike, not hate…but loath. This is the second time I’ve been her supervisor and she causes me more stress than any other single or group of employees I’ve ever had. She’s been in a mood recently, over who knows what now, and we are all walking in egg shells. I asked my boss to recognize her for some of the work she’s done recently and she acted like we were criticizing her and out to get her. She makes it quite clear, over and over again, about her dietary allergies and the team does the best to accommodate her but she doesn’t even have lunch with the team. I’ve invited her, but she refuses. She gets pissed off when nobody reacts to her posts in our group chat, and then gets pissed if when she feels the response wasn’t appropriate. If she is calling out sick, which is frequently, she’ll text me at 5:50 am. I’ve told her to wait until later, but she doesn’t get it. I understand she has background medical issues, I’ve had to work with her before and accommodate them, but you don’t need to shove them in the team’s face to stand out. She has the union on speed dial, and isn’t afraid to remind us of her close personal friendship with the local shop steward. I just with she would retire, and by the way so does her husband (who is a great guy).
Ok, rant over. Sorry about that. No need to reply I just needed to get this off my chest.

Entirely too many for me to do the same for all I am missing during vacation. Sorry folks. In a perfect world I absolutely would, but current reality has limited resources.
love my toaster oven!!!
He's so lucky to have you as his person. 
. So diet and exercise are the most important…we all kind of know that...was just hoping for a quick fix. What about that Apple Cider/Vinegar and water mixture at night? Anything natural…I”m kind of hippy-dippy that way. Thanks for all the info.
. Thunderstorms and lighting. Odd type of weather pattern for this time of year. We did need the rain though…
