Learning to say no

[serene]

...or, rather, learning to set the stage for saying no. ;-)

Went to my boss (one of them, anyway) at the Best Job Ever and told her, "I tend to crash around dinnertime these days, so while I'm currently eating and caffeinating so that I have a good chance to make it to the end of the celebration tonight (which goes until 8 including cleanup), I am going to play it by ear, and if I need to, I'm going to bail early."

She, of course, was totally fine with that.

I love my job. I freaking LOVE my job.

A good boss can make such a positive difference in people's lives; would that there were more of them.
