another effing early morning with zero motivation. I can only hope that the espresso kicks in. Had to dig up and replace two sprinkler heads after work last night. I want to kill whomever put the sprinklers in tight to the corners of the concrete walkways. total pain in the ass to dig them out.

Saw a chiropractor for the first time in my life yesterday. Basically almost everything between the base of my skull and my sacrum is a train wreck. I never heard my back and neck crack like that before, sounded like he was shuffling a deck of cards. Almost immediately felt an improvement.

Good luck dude. Severance pay is the shit. Don't forget to leave a pound of hamburger somewhere before you leave. Harder to find the better.

Edit just saw your job is safe. . . hold off on the burger.

At the head office today. Someone demolished the toilet in the bathroom near this office, thanks, so I'm shitting in the lobby toilet.

Did speak to the new manager yesterday during our new one on one meeting and told him that he needs to move the in person meetings on Wednesdays to another day (as it's bike night, duh). He surprisingly said he would.

Anyways it's ride night. Might be wet. Might have roadside hotdogs.

Funny how even after finding out you are safe, the impending doom of layoffs persists for a while. It was like being at a wake in the office after our recent round.
everyone left has PTSD from 2023. we were told there was only going to be 1 round of layoffs. then there was a surprise second round. since that second round almost half the people that survived have quit.
