If you seek to aid everyone that suffers in the galaxy, you will only weaken yourself … and weaken them. It is the internal struggles, when fought and won on their own, that yield the strongest rewards… If you care for others, then dispense with pity and sacrifice and recognize the value in letting them fight their own battles."

Depends on how bad the munchies are, or if there is beer in the fridge.

…
Use company resources as if YOU were paying for them.
…
I have multiple computers running at full load running distributed computing projects, and except for mid summer they're probably the largest consumer on my power bill. 
If I did what they told me to do instead of what they meant, I suspect words like "fired", "don't ask us for a reference", and possibly "charges will be filed" would be used. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Finland has had a system of publicly funded health care for decades, superior to what we have in the United States: they would have absolutely no reason to reproduce our fiasco.

I am slated with the task of arranging video meetings with people all over the world.
Who has done this in their life before me ?

I've done this more than a few times. Depending how many people you want, you might want to just schedule a Google Hangout.

Marriage is a fine institution. But who wants to spend their life in an institution?

She's at work, and apparently their corporate mail system (which was changed a few weeks ago) is not working as it should.
She says that whenever they mention that it's not working, all that happens is that the IT guy comes around, taps a few times on the computer and scratches his head...
Well, as I said to her: Anyone can see that that is not going to help!
He also needs to drink a cup of coffee and scratch his balls for a while!

Now see your missus should be grateful that she doesn't work for the parent company where I work.
for an IT problem you call a number in Delhi and register your problem.
That problem is then filtered through to the first line support in delhi who usually try to remote login to your machine that day (did I say that there is a maximum response time of one working day). if it is something as simple as an account lock out or email issues they then contact the local IT at your site (longest know time to resolve these is 2 working days).
If the Dehli support team can't solve this problem then you can raise this to Accenture + IMB after 3 days. Who then will start to look into it.
Apparently there is a black market at the parent company to resolve IT issues..

Luckily at the moment we don't.
The parent company don't want to mess up out infrastructure at present. But visitors are envious of the support that we give.

I worked on a site 'managed' by IBM back in the late 90's. To get anything out of them you had to log a call which would be prioritised at the morning managers' meeting.
The alternative that most of the bank's staff learned was to call my colleagues and I [we were sub-contracted] and then we'd go in and do some desk thumping tot get the issue resolved.
