<edit> one has to wonder if this had anything to do with the layoff or if it was coincidence. The timing is perfect.

Congested AF. At my office to do some stuff. If only we had laptops I could. . . I don’t know. . . Work at fucking home. . .oh well. Maybe I should go chat with my boss since he’s leaving for vacation tomorrow. Would be terrible if he caught something.

Davey tree service is removing some hard maples around power lines in the neighboring offices yard. Big stuff too, just chunking up and hauling to the landfill. Such a waste.

Good morning n all that shit. WFH today and will try to cram in a bike workout and a run. I had my annual eye exam this morning. My doc says my vision is 20/15, which makes me wonder why the hell I need to keep going for an annual exam. But, insurance pays for it so what the hell.

No chance you can swoop in and take it off their hands? I was close to doing the same when the power company was dropping birch across the street.

Skied my favorite winter trail Fawn Pass (YNP), well the first couple of three miles on my drive to the shitbox yesterday.

Just an awesome ski, hoping to dust off the "big boned" bike for some miles at Harriman later today...

Unrelated but on the (blue balls) peni measuring front AKA snowpack (112% of average, how cute) I told my neighbor Mr Plow he didn't have to plow the entirety of my second driveway like he has in previous years.

He rents to people with big ass snow machine trailers who need extra room to turn and park, so he does a extra 20' strip into my yard but stopped 5' shy of my back porch

Alas I noticed when starting the second roof shovelling last night that I will need a second snow thrower (backhoe) to dig out MY snow thrower.

Oh well it will be April May soon enough.

I could, but I’ve already got a pretty good pile of logs that need milled. I need to just bite the bullet and buy and large bandsaw mill. Chainsaw works good for a couple logs every now and then.

Here. Work busy. Haley has been involved in a multi week maylay boys vs. girls at school. Sounds like the girls have been retaliating due to harassment from the boys. Yay fun!

So far I've found 3 issues with the quick start guide and I'm not done yet. I started looking at the training document and have found 2 issues in the first 2 of 10 labs. Good times, maybe that's why I'm here.

well, my badge and network account still work, so operating under the assumption that i was not laid off. capitalism to the moon or some such nonsense
They like to wait until you buy a house, have a baby or get diagnosed with a terminal illness before laying you off.

The daughter of a wookie who probably towers over the boys and has a highly competitive streak. Most definitely. :rofl:
Yeah. Apparently her name came up a lot regarding someone who has been "more aggressively responding". Also explains why she's been refusing to cut her nails...
