Hi all, 

I know we just did all this, but if you are intending to disappear soon and not return until after Jan 1, then you might want to consider updating your time sheet before you leave.  

For those of you of Mayan descent/beliefs who believe the world is going to end on Friday, I would appeal to your desire to leave this plane of existence with a clean slate.  Do your timesheet anyway, as this will please the gods.  

For those of you who are aware that the Mayan calendar is cyclical and time is just going to begin all over again and the momentous event that will mark the shift from one era to the next is that Kronos will work properly for you, please note that there will not be separate time sheets for the two eras.  HR will work in conjunction with Finance to assure proper accounting procedures pertaining to the apocalypse are followed.  

Thank you.

Almost all of Sunday, May 1, 2011, was a slow news day. Painfully slow. At the time I was a home page editor at The Washington Post working Sunday night duty.

There were four…
