TweetDeck is an idea. Hadn't thought of that. I've only briefly looked at that on my phone.Monster day at work. Probably won't hear from me much. I am going to beat everyone again. IP: Logged |

My experience with the management is that you always try to be diplomatic and try to show your emotions in a contructive way. I see it all just as a 'serious' acting game at the office. With al those people and emotions everyday.... It's just like a soap opera.Six of my colleages are divorced. The secret affairs in the company.  And what I learnt don't talk about astrology at work. They don't understand that,they accusted me of being a dreamy type. So from now on I'll keep my mouth shut about that subject! My manager is a taurus. My sag colleague fools me, whe have a laugh, with my scorpio colleague i talk about sex, the leo aks for a compliment,gemini makes linguistic jokes!You see, It was just another day at the office.

Yeah, it was strange to me that she was taking it to an emotional place, when I really just wanted to talk. Fortunately, in her reply email that I read this morning she took a better tone, and admitted that she gets caught up in the emotion. I think we're good again. It's sometimes frustrating dealing with Scorpios, because I know they want to be fair, but that doesn't exactly make them fair. Sometimes you have to lead them to it.My big morning's over now. We had pre-layoff levels of work this morning with post layoff staff, so it was a bit overwhelming. I didn't finish first, though I do think my numbers are likely consistent with my coworkers. There were auxilliary people stepping in to help us, so I'm not sure how balanced that was, because I was pretty sure that I got ahead of them early on. IP: Logged |

It would be nice to make money using astrology, but I don't think I could do it day in and day out. I think I'd get annoyed at the questions that come up, because in some ways there are no easy answers.Bringing up astrology in the workplace can be a bit touchy. I generally do bring it up a little, but I don't push it. I also pay close attention to the birthdays I'm made aware of at work. Even Sun sign information is handy to have. IP: Logged |

Yup. I always know the signs of the people around me. Right now there are 2 Scorpios in my office that clash like mad. One is the boss, the other, a very young and inexperienced receptionist. She wants all this respect and gold stars for doing her job and gets hyper sensitive and ****** when she messes up and he lets her know it. It's a power struggle. There is a Cappy girl a year my senior who is preggers and an Aries, Libra and other Aqua, all attorneys. I find it helps me figure out the best way to deal with or interact with them. It seems to work in my favor. IP: Logged |

My work colleagues are either fire or air. We get on fine. But we had a water sign here for a bit. She didn't like us so much. How are your allergies AG?IP: Logged |

My allergies aren't causing too much trouble at the moment. Still have a little congestion, but I'm breathing through my nose at night.My co-workers are all female, and all have feminine Suns. Two Virgos (with the occasional third), a Taurus, and a Scorpio. IP: Logged |

I seem to follow a pattern of working with only Earth and Water signs. We get along fine. Can't stand working with Geminis unless they have some Earth in their big 3. Once I had a Saggie boss. She was the best!OMG, did I just post on a Godzala thread?!  IP: Logged |

LOL @ Yin.It's been my experience that TWO Scorpio's have a very hard time working together, unless one is older and more experienced, and the younger one knows his/her place. I find it amusing that you are supposed to get along best with your own sun, and/or element, but this has not been MY experience with Scorpios. Watch them circle each other sometime, it's pretty darn funny. IP: Logged |

I think Capricorns can get along together, they just won't always see eye to eye. In general I agree with you, though, people of the same Sun sign don't always get along so well. Interestingly, I think Geminis are one of the best signs at that.IP: Logged |

Totally agree about the Geminis. My best friend is a Gem, her ex was a Gem (they parted very amicably) and his best friend was a Gem. They were hilarious to hang around with. So many ideas-stories-songs being tossed between them. One of my favorite groups to observe. Water signs in general, I have found personally, don't gel for very long in close quarters. My brother (Scorp) lives with his gf (Pisces) and my bf used to live with them (he's a Cancer). That house was emotional warfare by the end of that living situation. They knew how to eff with each other and push buttons and manipulate. It was awful. And so touchy! Eggshells if you know what I mean. Thankfully, since my bf moved out last year, they have been able to go back to being friends. They all have a great deal of fire in their personal planets though, so that may account for some of the explosions... IP: Logged |

Saggie girls get along great with each other. I know and love so many...Saggie guys, mmm, not so much, too much fire competition, me thinks.Libras seem to clump up in my life. Virgo's do too. I am trying to think if I've ever seen my Aqua friends with other Aquas!! I don't think I have! Weird, you would think they would! AG, yes, Caps do get along well together. No matter what the combo of sexes. They just chill and I love observing them, observing others. You guys are people watchers for sure!!  IP: Logged |

I know a Gemini couple, too. They just had their first child together. The male is of the shy variety of Gemini.IP: Logged |

My work requires a lot of sifting through boring details. (grand Earth trine here) But try to get a commitment out of a Gem for doing something precise! Ugghhh. Maybe it's just my line of work, I don't know.Actually I used to be roommates with two Gem girls. Those two were/still are inseparable. They were cool. I just couldn't get the more fiery one to commit to anything. The other one had a lot of Taurus in her chart - much, much better.  IP: Logged |

Yeah, I'm kind of the same with Sags. I generally gets along with the females well. The males are a little hit or miss, though I do have a couple old male Sag friends.I've got Libras around, too. Most notably in my roommate. I don't enjoy their tendency towards being contradictory simply to be contradictory. Of course, I don't think they'd see themselves that way. I can't tell you how many times my roommate's unnecessarily argued a point with me that wasn't really relevant. IP: Logged |

IDK how you guys are with your same sex suns, but I IMMEDIATELY bond with a Saggie girl.If I am working, I can usually pick them out, and when I ask, and they say they are sag, I'm glued to that end of the bar the rest of the night. My bad. But, true. *Interesting trivia. Well to me. I was looking up Van Halen vids on youtube for a friend. Anyway, David Lee Roth is a Libra. Apparently Eddie Van Halen could just NOT stand his guts after awhile (happens in band, I know.) So, I looked up Dave's replacement, Sammy Hagar, guess what? Another Libra?? That didn't work out either. Now, I am wondering and have always suspected that Eddie is a bit of a jerk, so why he can't keep a band mate is no surprise. He even had, whasshis name, the dude from EXTREME for like, five minutes. *Just looked him up, Eddie is an Aqua. Now you would think he would like Lirbras!!! Maybe too much air, thinking, and not enough doing?? IDK. IP: Logged |

LOL AG! I'm often contradictory just for the sake of it. Not so much in the company of friends, but with my boyfriend, I do it all the time. I don't know why, but I enjoy getting on his nerves at times when he thinks he knows a lot about a subject and he doesn't. I'll pick the other side of things and just argue. WTH is wrong with me? LOL. All the Uranian influence? It's weird because with friends, at work, etc, I'm usually the peacemaker... IP: Logged |

I love my work and want to get the job done right. And I think I work best with scorpio and earth signs. Buth than again each starsign has his own unique qualities. It's funny I ones said: I see a relationship as a company. You have to work hard for the business. I can't believe I said that.  AG your thread has a lot of reactions. I was wondering, What happens when you start to dance at a party. And you're the first one at the dancefloor. Will everybody come and join you? That will be funny....

When I was a young adult, during the time that I went dancing most, I would go to the dance club fairly early, so I could get on the dance floor before the place got crowded. I like to have room to dance. Someday I hope to take some dance lessons. That would be fun. Welcome home, Eskimono!  IP: Logged |

Thank you AG - I am very happy to be here.What is it with Cappies and the dancefloor?? I mean, I like to dance, but I know my limitations. Dancing knew no bounds with my Cappy ex. How's the song coming along? IP: Logged |
