Ms. Coworker from hell?

I mentioned last week that I had a coworker that I wasn't getting along with and that my boss wanted us to work things out. I don't know what he said to her after talking with me, but this past week has been the best week I've had since I started my job. She has been much more helpful and sociable than I expected. I guess I've done better myself. I've made a point to go by her office more frequently and renewed my efforts to communicate, especially face to face. All very cool.

Time

"Don't be fooled by the calendar. There are only as many days in
the year as you make use of. One man gets only a week's value out
of a year while another man gets a full year's value out of a week."
--Charles Richards

Crimes

When you think of the long and gloomy history of man, you will find more hideous crimes have been committed in the name of obedience than have ever been committed in the name of rebellion. -C.P. Snow, scientist and writer (1905-1980)
