In an effort to make my space a little more, uh, happy, I printed the above ^^ to put up on a board, right around a computer I sit at. But knowing my supervisor, I showed her firstto ensure that it was work appropriate. First she waved me away saying she was too busy to read anything, so I humbly****** began to walk away. Then, she waves me back and snatches out of my hand and says she'll give it a "look see." 

As i approach my desk, she says in a distinct OUTDOOR voice. OH MY GOD THIS IS JUST BEAUTIFUL. HAVE YOU READ THIS? THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!. Well, no shit, I printed it out -_- but of course, because what I'm learning is passive aggression, I mumble "mmhmm."

Alas, I still dont know if the piece is appropriate because it is sitting on her desk, with no further talk, suggestion or aggression about it. Maybe she thought it was really really beautiful -_-
