save the drama for yo mama!

One of the things I love about work is that it *should* be clean cut. This is professional, it isn't personal. Alas, since work requires people...it also involves...gasp...feelings. GAH.

Truth. Preach on, sister.

I mean, I am not saying your feelings are unimportant - just don't let them be the driver on this boat....mmmkay?
