And as much as I harp on how underqualified the team is at People's Revolution, I felt for Skinner this week. Not because they fired Vorhees and now she has all this extra work piled on her — really honey, get used to that. That's just business as usual these days. No, I felt for her because holy hell! Emily is a HORRIBLE manager! Skinner is young and inexperienced and she she was having a hard time prioritizing all that's being thrown at her. And I was appalled how, rather than being any assistance to her, Emily only compounded the problem.
It seems like what People's Rev needs is to hire people who have more specific skill sets: an office manager, to handle paperwork, billing, broken printers; a PR manager, to oversee the actual media pitching and PR work; an account services manager, to manage the client relationships. It just seems so unorganized up in there, with bodies being thrown at work with no rhyme nor reason to the process.
And I just don't know what else I can say about that.

Hey! You're the one who got me hooked on this show so you HAVE to keep watching.
This week's episode made me feel kind of sorry for Kelly. Just a little bit. She spent SO much time patting herself on the back for having such a modern, European relationship with her eurotrash babydaddy, it was pretty obvious that an occasional hookup is all he's willing to give her and she's trying to convince herself that's okay. The whole thing kind of gave me the heebie-jeebies. *shudder*
You know, I hadn't considered that, but you're absolutely right, B.
