Gotta load my EMS gear into the camper. Bonus is that the horse show ends at 3 on Saturday. The venue is out in the wine country so I will bring the road bike and get in some miles that afternoon

What I first thought was covid I think is just early allergies due to the dry and hot spring.
Starting tile floor today in the last room in the basement and the two storage rooms are done so we can get all the crap back in there.
Basement tenant moving out so I can raise the rent a little due to the renovation and update the lease with payment for electricity as I now have a seperate meter on the apartment. Still sorry to see him go as he has been super easy and his mom paid for the rent and was always on time.

A team of mediocre players that work well together can easily beat a team of incredible players that don't. That's pretty well established.
Case in point, Tico's b-squad last night
Indian food for dinner last night means ghost of Indian food this morning. Good thing I'm WFH, I don't think the open office is ready for this kind of collaboration.
I need to order a 30 or 40 yard dumpster. Got half a garage full of debris that needs to leave.

Getting my first haircut in six months later this afternoon. Other than that it’s a rainy day here in Angryland.

Ordered another round of LED lights for the coach, also order a cute little pressure washer. Also starting to tackle the sound and entertainment system. 14 speakers in this coach will sound pretty good with some decent sets.
In other news....
got pulled over last night for doing a wheelie on the BMW heading back from dinner. The cop said it was very controlled and still under 25mph so he let me go.

In an all hands meeting and our VP asks everyone to bring up any questions or concerns people have. Then people bring up their concerns and she just talks over them and dismisses their concerns. That's some quality leadership right there.

finally some light at the end of the tunnel on the bathroom reno. tiling will be finished later today. should be all wrapped up (with the exception of the shower glass, which is custom) by late next week.
I had a manager do that at an *exit* interview... I just told him I didn't care if he did anything about my "concerns" or not - it was just an attempt to be helpful. No need to make excuses/dismiss my observations.
Whelp, it's been nice "knowing" y'all. As a Terps hoops fan (RIP) I feared it was end times re: Dook vs. UNCheat this weekend in Final 4...
And in related news, the Aurora Borealis was visible last night in MT (not my pixels...)

That is my landlord(s) in a nutshell. Most contrarian psycho I have ever dealt with. But not for much longer.
The company is trying to switch management styles where they used to just openly dismiss any problems and concerns to pretending to care about problems and concerns.
Don't worry, it won't be long before they'll bring in McKinsey to straighten things out. And by straighten things out I mean fire vocal underlings in the name of leaning out the organization and removing inefficiencies.
Well, now. That's a step in... some direction.
I have found that making yourself feel good about something while enacting zero net change is a very popular methodology in the PNW
We are union so the vocal underlings just get transfered somewhere else. Actually it is a pretty good methodology for getting out of shit situations. Exactly how I got promoted off of my last nightmare project. I went to my boss with a pretty serious issue, he told me to ignore it because of the "bad optics", I immediately sent an email to the whole organization, got offered a new better position the following week.
Is there somewhere that predicts where it'll be visible? The Aurora is one thing I've always wanted to see, but have never had the previlige.
Maybe tonight I'll swing down by the lake where its dark, if its not cloudy.
We've been doing this at my organization for the last 6 or 7 years. Frankly, I had more respect for management when they were open about not giving a shit. The whole pretending to care thing is definitely a trap set up to catch gullible rubes.
While I have not experienced the Aurora Borealis I have gotten to see the milky way and all the stars that you see in astronomy photos out on a bald on the AT. Only got to see it for a minute or so as it was windy and cold.
ftfy
coolest stars i've even seen were when i went to kenya and we were way out in the country with zero light pollution. pretty amazeballs.
plotting to keep fuckit friday in the hills intact. muhwahahahahaha.
