Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good news, Suzi!

I did phone screens with two candidates at the end of the day yesterday, and they have both emailed thank-you notes! Many of the young people do not bother anymore, and I really appreciate it.

Jesse, I assume it was email thank you? I figure these days paper is surely antiquated, but there was a time when that was seen as preferable/more formal than email. Oh, how things change!

I had a FB friend post an article about how Britain is actually doing well economically after Brexit. While I hope dire economic predictions don't come to bare, it seems a little early to draw conclusions about Brexit since the Brexit hasn't actually happened yet. I expect there will be articles about how Hillary Clinton is a terrible President in December this year. Well, unless Trump wins.

Yep. Occasionally I still get one on paper, and now I think that's weird!

So my poor mother's computer is being held hostage and they may not be able to get her stuff back. :(

Cass, this is horrifying. I can't even imagine how hard this is for you and your family. I'm wishing for the best.

Matt, good thoughts going out for your friend.

Ransomware?

Obnoxious stuff. It hits our users on a regular basis. I've dealt personally with 7 people this year with their data locked down.
