I get the flip side.
"Why don't we have a social media strategy??? Our competitors are out there and we're totally missing the boat."
Are you on Twitter? "No." LinkedIn? "No."
Are you beginning to understand why you're not aware of our social media strategy? "What do you mean?"
That's great, brenda.
Ugh, shrift, I'm sorry.
Jesse, are you thinking of revealing yourself as a tumblr maven, or just pointing out that none of these people have a clue?
Haircut achieved. A little working from home and then interview.

This is why I can't say anything, right? I mean, I don't want to get into my actual level of tumblring, but I'm sure someone would ask what my tumblr is and then what? I guess I could just say it's personal? It just seems like a whole kettle of fish.
Ah, work at a public library. Gentleman walks up, asks me where he can get his w-2 form. I explain that the w-2 form is usually sent by your employer directly to your home. He says he means the form to file your taxes. I ask Federal taxes? He says yes. I ask does he know which form - the 1040EZ, or...? Yes, that one. I print him the 2-page form. He asks for a pen.
Ten minutes later he's back and asks me to look up the address where you send it. Are you getting a refund? Yes. It's in Fresno.
Fastest I've ever seen anyone file taxes, and not a lick of paper did he bring with him.
The wind map for my region shows continual steady winds. I'm beginning to worry that the light poles in the parking lot aren't up to the swaying they're doing. And there's a howl when the door to the atrium is opened up. Possibly not the best day to have worn sandals and a skirt. There's a haze of dust as far as I can see. I think I'll take the long way home, the one not populated by high-profile vehicles.
That dude is amazing, flea. Even if he just made some shit up, amazing to be able to do that!
Yeah, Jesse, it does seem like a can of worms.
By "work from home" I apparently meant "answer one e-mail". But, hey, did that. Now I must drive.
I've had an all day headache, and one also yesterday. Powered through some Ubering anyway, and am getting some Outside time. Yay?
Oh man, yesterday. We had a mad scramble because we needed like 20 people to sign a legal doc (which we had in Word) from a client and had to get them submitted same day. Our people are all over the place so not everyone can print, sign and scan a doc.
I will spare you all the random ass ways people came up with to do this (E-sigs! They exist! Or I can help you make one, as explained clearly in the email.)
Suffice to say that one guy's solution was to pull the document up on his laptop, then sign his name on a post-it and stick the post it on the screen, then use his phone to snap a picture of this and send it to me.
Yeah, that's going to satisfy the client's legal team. Ironclad!
