It might be Thursday, but it feels like Friday.


Supposed to have my yearly goals and whatever entered today. I ain't doing it; not sure how I'm supposed to create goals and stuff when I don't even know who my manager is, what my new title is or what my role on the team is now.. oh well.

Anyways, it's pissing rain here. Had a blast sliding around on mush last night on the fat bike. I'm assuming fat biking is done for the season now.

HBD, @CBJ!

 

[Adventurous]

At home recharging my social battery. Amazing how draining a single day at the office can be.

Will mix in collecting more brush to build another fire tomorrow. Slowly but surely cleaning up the years of neglect.

Hot bean water nao please.

I think a second round will be a requirement

this machine needs a good cleanup.

 

[Jozz]

In the 'office' today.
Raining, so no playing outside. Unless I get the motivation to break out the snowshoes to go pack down an extreme fartbike trail. Spotted a 30ft 60deg wall that might be fun skidding down.

 

[eric strt6]

this machine needs a good cleanup.

Some of that is permanent stain, the machine is 25 years old, and frankly I don't give a damn, It gets a quick swipe with a wet sponge every now and then and I call it good. OCD I am not.

Level of FTS just broke the meter. If I make it through today with out quitting I’ll consider that a win. I enjoy my customers and don’t want to leave them hanging but the complete and utter dumpster fire of an agency where I work, that’s another story. Spent the evening last nigh determining how to make working for myself work. . . Not there yet.

Do you own all your tools?

Let's get weird!

 

[Full Trucker]

Caving in and going to see someone about a niggling hip injury that's been plaguing me for nearly month. Also developed an annoying cough yesterday, with no other symptoms of sickness. Way too busy at work, haven't been able to get outside at all, but maybe that's for the best considering the hip pain.

 

[stoney]

here.

 

[I Are Baboon]

Hi lol. WFH....got work to do but no motivation to do it. I've got to carve out some time out in the next few days to see the new John Wick movie. I'll be going solo since nobody I know is interested in seeing it.

 

[sunringlerider]

Do you own all your tools?

Yes, have enough tools to be a diesel mechanic or have a functional wood shop and enough camera gear to be an idiot wedding photog.

but have always been too much of a bitch to suck it up and not have a day job.

 

[Nick]

working, potential FIF ski day tomorrow.

 

[eric strt6]

That's my normal

Been leaving peanuts on the kitchen sink window sill for the birds for years now. One of the moar assertive House Wrens will actually come to my bedroom window if I am not up yet. So this morning while she was looking in the window I decided to see if she would take a peanut out of my hand, she did. Pretty cool having a bird eat out of your hand.

pregnant battery extraction from camera successful....first problem w/third party battery...

 

[mandown]

Late night dealing with difficult things meant no working on projects of interest. Then late to bed, yet somehow up early. This is gonna suck.

 

[maxyedor]

Woke up to an angry email because I've been ignoring another email chain about one of my projects, and failed to make all the requested updates. You know who they forgot to include in said email chain? Me, the PM. Smart corporate big-wig people we hired are really worth their pay.

Not sure how big of a dick I should be about it? Go the snarky route and laugh it off, or call our new VP a fuckwit on a teams call. I think my job is secure enough to run with the latter of those options.

 

[canadmos]

HBD @CBJ !


@Jozz you should definitely pack down that trail!

Man this snow can't melt fast enough.

 

[boostindoubles]

Had a fantastic night ride last night. Hopefully moar of those are in store for me. Theres just nobody around and my phone doesn't ring. It's the best. Two days of binging on dried cots and fresh apple is catching up to me. Fire in the hole!

[jimmydean]

Morning Monkeys.

Taking Monday to a hip cat groomer for another lion cut. I'm hoping he might have some tips for avoiding this from now on. She's a trooper, though.

 

[Sandwich]

whew lads

slept great. saw the kids off then did a 40m row. Couldn't quite reach 10km, but I have a goal now. Off to work and it's been a nice (but hot) morning so far. How are you?

 

[AngryMetalsmith]

Happy birthday @CBJ !!

HBD, Claus. May the Spring of Claus be good

I saw that on teh stravas. That's a long time to row! I never could tolerate it for nearly that long, thus me selling my Concept2 and all.

 

[canadmos]

This. Call them out on it. Don't even need to be a dick about it, just make them aware that they are idiots.

Whats the worst that could happen, they have to do some of the work if they fire you?

Don't need to be a dick, but you also don't need to suck it up and take it.

Thanks everybody! I had my last 30 min of work yesterday and hope not to have to work again before September. Summer of Claus!

if it ain't on strava...

honestly I put on some open water rowing videos and tried to zone out, just do some low impact stuff. It mostly worked, but I was 1500m shy of my goal. Still, it helps to break up time on the bike.

Just scored Tix for this, $20.00 each. That's not a typo
