I would like to be involved in this. Come to think of it... I've never really ridden *anything* down in the Springs...

So Kenosha West Jeff then?
Trestle just sent out their email for season passes going on sale, $419. That's a big nope given how their trails were last year and they ruined my favorite Spicy Chicken run. I might do a couple of trips there, but keen to get out to some other resorts this summer again.
I was pretty sure that we had established that we do not work for the same employer, but that train looks awfully familiar.current work situation:
just trying to make sure i get the timing right of knowing when to jump off
I have a headache already from work today. I had a chat with upper management today. My main topics were myopia and customer relations. I expect no reaction…
I have also not ridden that loop in a coon's age...
Tis my fave.I have also not ridden that loop in a coon's age...
*Have not ridden in the San Juan's, to be remedied this summer.
Mmm... West Lost Trail Creek...
Not quite that convenient, I'm afraid.So Kenosha West Jeff then?
Hot tub draining, skylight to be repaired. Productive I am, today.
Capitulation. That is the word I'll use. Capitulating that there is fuck all that he can do and that he's thoroughly fucked.
Apparently the management team had already told him that they were extending an offer, so it wasn't totally blind, but you could see the surrender that he was thoroughly fucked.

I’m down for day trips out to lift accessed places. Will take the Busy Forks with rack now that I have that all set up
(and also not planning on a Trestle pass at those prices esp given your disappointment with newly poppier Chicken)
yea. the issues are mostly isolated to my functional group.
My brother is a bit disabled so they are for him, he has spasms which make powered cutting tools a bit dangerous, the Pellenc have a sesor like the Saw Stop that makes them open the jaw if they touch skin. I could never justify the new price but had been watching a decent looking used set for a few months, they dropped in price so I bought them.
About to spend the next 4 hours in a meeting. Fffffff.
Um, is the word secateur used differently down under, or did you somehow source a set of $600 hand pruners?

And I thought Felco were spendy...
Because they just inherited your workload?Oh boy... My colleagues are starting to get openly pissed.
No. Well, they get to deal with all of my individual clients (vs. the whole city) who have been working with me for years. Nothing like having your advisor pulled out from under you with zero warning.
But moreso that they are finding out that this all stems from me getting bypassed for a promotion that was a no questions asked, perfect fit. They instead gave it to the younger guy on the team (and my mentee) who they needed to give a raise to or he would leave. He's been saying that I'm still clearly the senior person on the team. The title is just a thing, because everybody knows the reality.
My life in academics is a bit simpler. Every few years I might get some pressure to publish something or other. But there’s nothing more to shoot for really, since like @Westy I don’t covet any positions that’d have me in more meetings. Meetings are the worst.
There is something to be said for a work place where I can suggest that someone go fuck themselves without consequences.
Most of what can be said isn't great, but I can tell someone to go fuck themselves, mean it, and be left alone the rest of the day.

yes and welcome to my personal hell
So, the fools foolishly played you for a fool, and got foolishly fooled, fool me once, won’t get fooled again?
(I think I got that right?)
Picked up the secateurs, they are damn solid, got flashed pins, threaded plug connections and the trigger works by an optical sensor which is a great idea.
The blade was pretty sad so I gave it a fairly crude sharpening and it cuts okay.
The battery seems massive for a secateur and is 41V so it must be an 11 cell pack, coz French.

When I was working, I would walk out of meetings that weren't accomplishing anything; wouldn't do so if customers were present.
I read an interesting article that there are two types of great employees - superstars and rockstars. Superstars are the traditional, always wanting to move forward in their career, moving up the ladder people. Rockstars are the specialists who are overlooked. People who just want to become the best that they can be in their specific area of expertise with no care for moving up or management. Conveniently this also perfectly lines up with neurotypical and neurodivergent. The rockstars are the group that usually holds huge amounts of institutional knowledge and it causes big problems when they leave. Ironically, because management tends to be of the superstar variety, there is a disconnect regarding the value of the rockstars and the consequences of their leaving. Never ending cycle too.
Well, I am about half neurodivergent per those tests . Which you all know over these years.
There’s no path “up” other than being a vice chair (or chair or dean) for me. And those all have tremendous meeting requirements: all chairs do is have meetings and schmooze. That’s not on my radar at all for what I want to do when I grow up eh

I was actually thinking about that when you were tell me about it.
