DINOBAT.
I am super sleepy and do not want to do work. Like, at all. I have followed up on two internal job postings (one in Dublin, one in Mountain View) and have meetings scheduled with people next week. I am rewarding myself with puttering around the internet every time I accomplish a work task.
I need to sit down and seriously evaluate the pros and cons of Dublin vs. Mountain View at some point, but I've been trying not to let it send me into an anxiety spiral since I hadn't been getting much serious interest in hiring me.
I have been on a mission to buy new pants because I noticed that some of my favorite corduroys were reaching the end of their life. Ordered some pants last night, but as I am heading to Michigan this weekend and the pants situation isn't that urgent, I chose slow shipping on Amazon for the $1 digital promotional credit. And yet somehow the pants are scheduled to be delivered tomorrow?
Because I'm friends with a lot of people who are also regular customers of the restaurant. For that reason, I keep FB as apolitical as possible. Some of them are more racist than I ever thought possible, but it's not my place to tell them to never cross my path again, because then we'd have no business left.
Yes, being a beer professional (an industry that skews white male) in the SOUTH is very tough for me with political stuff and social media. I've unfollowed a lot so my FB feed and make sure my lockdown filter is up to date, but I honestly don't feel safe posting about gender or race stuff publicly. I've been struggling with this a lot, and I feel incredibly cowardly and disappointed in myself.
Chemtrails [link], which at least one of the Texas crazies cited as further proof that the government is after us.
To be fair, the US Government has indulged in some shady chemical exposure management in the past, and a lot of the test subjects of MKUltra were neither willing nor informed. While pointing at jet contrails as proof of chemical mind control may be ridiculous, I don't think benevolence of government action toward the public can be assumed as a given.
Sheesh, Matt, you run a dozen or so tests on an unsuspecting public an no one ever trusts you again!
I just spent three days on jury duty and my judge was CUTE. something in his face was similar to NF, not kidding. Best jury duty ever.
Are you done, msbelle? Hope you weren't too distracted by the cutie judge.
So, hivemind, I need some creative help coming up with a name for CJ's search and rescue team's next fund raiser. We are doing a golf tournament/silent auction/dinner thing. The team's name is Arapahoe Rescue Patrol. For the last couple of years our Silent Auction tag line was "57 years and searching for more". The thought is to move away from this and go with something "fresh"...but no one has ideas.
Anyone???
As long as we're sharing house news, I'm going to tour this one on Saturday.
I'd kill something small for that porch alone.
