I do the same thing, Matt, but the notion of just delegating it and going with the flow is really appealing.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I never posted an update, but Mac got the job he interviewed for the other day. He's done some onboarding stuff online and tonight he got called in to "get into the system" his worlds. He did not dressin the clothes he has for the job. He wore a rap concert t-shirt with holes. I told him he should dress for work, that they might mean to do some training, also that it's only the second time he is seeing the boss and he should dress like it. Nope, would not change.
Now he has been in there a half hour and I'm betting he is actually getting trained and I'm stuck here.
I got ambushed by another Attack Nap, which makes waking up when it's 7:01 on the digital clock and quite light a little perplexing for a few minutes. Happily, I did not oversleep on a Monday morning.
Posting makes it happen. He is done. All went fine. He starts Tuesday.
Good for Mac!

Yay! I still can't get my son to dress decently for work. You'll be shocked to know that he assumes since he is so brilliant they won't care how he dresses. Sob. He's working. I'll take that as a win.
Yay, Mac!
Not much made today. The only thing I reorganized today were my Netflix and Hulu queues. And I washed the shower curtain and liner.
My house is looking so much better, but I still have more to clean and still to pack. 1 more day. gotta get it done. I think I'll head to bed now though, get a chunk done in the morning before it gets hot.

Wow. If I do a image search for hubris I'm going to find his picture, aren't I.

Yeah, pretty much. I did find it encouraging that he posted on his FB page about his job. When he did the internet search on what kind of a place it was to work he found a lot of reviews that said it wasn't the place to work if you were white. He decided that if that was the case then he would be outta there in a week. His review - "Turns out they were just racist morons, I must say, few months in now and I'm enjoying my job immensely and my predominately black supervisors are not even remotely racist as the reviewers would have me believe."
It looks like it will work out. He is enjoying the work, and has made a number of friends. When I pick him up I see him exiting laughing and engaging with his fellow workers. He does chat support for Sprint billing so he doesn't like Sprint a whole lot since he sees the worst. But he seems to like helping he customers and being appreciated. Since he is in the chat room they have music playing which he enjoys.
He finished training early, finished his monitored probation period early. They pretty much give him unlimited overtime so his manager must like him. In his 4th month, which is like a record for him. All digits crossed.
