"Warming", cloudy, fiddling with bikes today.
Mornin!
Man I hate people sometimes. I'm trying to give away about $500 worth of building supplies for free and getting someone who says they are going to show up actually show up is turning into a giant debacle.
Got a phone interview this morning for a position thats a stretch and not entirely within my wheelhouse, but the commute would be awesome and it's a good company. So long as the people are nice and the job is interesting, perhaps that makes it worth the leap.

Meh. Chilly and my coffee sucked this morning. I don’t know why people in the office don’t put enough in the coffee maker. “Oh I don’t like it strong..blah blah” well then drink fucking tea. Coffee is meant to be tasted not just look like dirty water. Time to get my private coffee/espresso maker hooked back up in my office so I can make a proper cup.
I declined my invitation to tonight's work project go-live celebration party. Bossman asked why I wasn't going. I told him I don't want to. I've wasted enough of my personal time on that damn project.
I ran five miles before work. 15 degrees outside. I was fine except for my face. My jaw got particularly cold. That's about as cold as my runs will get until springtime arrives.

Everything is running so I have a gravy day.
You're not wrong.
If you don't ascribe a value to something, people tend to not give a shit because you're basically are saying it's worthless.
Try a listing like $500 of drywall for just $175 I bet people will be more responsive as they don't want to miss a 'deal'.
Perhaps I'll do that then. We are talking 10 or so 24' long i-joists. $50 a piece IIRC, so a good pickup for someone.
You'd think just marketing it as $500 worth of "stuff" for "FREE" that they would recognize a really good deal.
But just think how dumb the average U.S. citizen is... and remember half the population is dumber than THAT.

Portland has been dry 12 of the last 14 days, this is not a good sign. November is usually pretty wet, so they are saying Winter will be wicked cold and likely snowy. Portland doesn't do well with snow, could be interesting.

might I suggest a nice layer of protective, insulating body fat? it's easy, anyone can do it.

it's a magical awful schnaps with a fabled history. you'll find it behind any old bar in the old country, and the PBR hip crowd has given it a new life.

Malört: The Most Disgusting Liquor of All Time
Ever enjoy the ritual of absinthe tasting? You combine sugar cubes, fire, and ice water to make the licorice-flavored beverage palatable. What if absinthe lacked any of these interesting additives? You would be left with malört — a harsh, extremely unpalatable beverage with an hour-long bitter...

So true.
fuck. SoCal school shooting ...
no schiff show!
whereas I had one big whole grain rolled oats pancake with a single fried egg on top.
also have not died yet.
science! boomshakalaka.
I had leftover adobada tacos for breakfast. Should have topped them both with fried eggs to make them breakfast tacos. Opportunity missed.

so people without real skills can look busy without having to surf the web?
It's such a fucking mess.
moar snow. this is almost unheard of for early november. Yesterday it was almost -8°F on the bike in to work...
Otherwise, it's meet the teacher night tonight. I should have enough time to go out for a night-fat-ride afterwards, but I just can't muster up the motivation. I'd rather stay home and talk to my wife about how the kids are doing in school. Oh wait...

Just started "using" it here last week. Was told "the bulk of communication goes through Teams". We have like 8 "teams" I am in, every question I have asked has gone unanswered and resulted in an email exchange.
