Lauren brainstorm part 3

Okay so I'm going to continue Lauren's story. If you wanna read what I have so far, go here:

Other things about Lauren's office:
  • I think there should be a secret panel that allows her to go to a panic room (having it shared by all other HR employees there could be hilarious)
  • Should also be another secret panel that leads to a private bathroom (a promotion perk) and she should occasionally get confused between the two
  • Fake painting that allows her to video conference her boss
  • Has a window (upgrade from her previous office)
  • Has a company equivalent of an Alexa
  • Has a potted plant because the boss thinks it makes HR offices more friendly (Lauren does not like her plant and only grudgingly takes care of it)
Other potential plot points:
  • All HR employees in the panic room either in a drill or in a real invasion
  • Various other drills: fire, earth quake, the new hydro-drill has malfunctioned, mudslide, the robots have become sentient, power outage
  • Picking a new HR software
  • Redoing the complex website
  • Spring cleaning day
  • Christmas party (secret santa)
  • Dealing with a honeymoon request
  • Going over retirement plans with the few employees who are close to that age
  • Halloween party (one person dresses up as the boss and it does not go well)
  • State of the company address
  • Deciding on a logo for the complex
  • Employees needing to pick appropriate code names that don't overlap (everyone wants names like hurricane, maelstrom, and Bob)
  • Decisions on company branded freebies like frisbees, mugs, pens, laser guns, notepads
  • Going green initiative 
  • Trying to see if they can somehow become tax exempt
  • All complex photo
Other ideas about Lauren's boss:
  • People are meant to call him Mr. Supreme Leader, but for the higher ups (like Lauren now is) they just call him Supreme Leader
Other ideas about the complex:
  • There are other complexes throughout the world
  • Every complex has a 'sister complex'
  • Sometimes there are complaints about how other complexes have this feature or that party or that rule that Lauren has to field and then, on occasion, talk to her boss about
If anyone is reading these, I would love to hear people's thoughts on my various ideas! I think this story could have more to it than the original post, but I'm not sure where to go. Additional suggestions also welcome!

I'm angry

I'm angry. And I don't (at the moment) want to be talked out of it. I struggle, often, with expressing or even just sitting with my emotions. I feel like even the photo I chose for this post was more reserved or toned down than how I feel.  But, this is my trying. I'm not going to time this post, just going to write until I feel done, whenever that may be. In this post, I'm going to focus on the anger I feel around my dad and my dad's death. Though, don't get me wrong, I'm also angry about a lot of things going on in my city, in my country, and in the world. My dad chose alcohol over me and my brother. There is no way around this fact. Yes, when I am less angry, I can be more reasonabl and recognize that addiction is a disesase and he didn't have control over it. But, right now, I want to be angry. I want to get to be angry. I want to get to feel my feelings. I don't want to rationalize, I don't want to be reasonable, I don't want to be fair....
