Puppy has an exciting bout of diarrhea, so that is fun. Rolling the dice to see what his crate looks like when wife gets home at lunch.

Sharing an office with a coworker who is in tears the last couple days, that is fun as well.

Still enjoying the "unlimited PTO" policy at our company. Since I started in 2016 I've been averaging ~7 weeks/yr of holiday time. Perhaps now that I've been around awhile I should be shooting for 8 weeks. :homer:

Welcome to the club. 8 weeks last year.

not sure how much was logged as vacation vs professional and academic time, but in typical years I work about 200 days per year

My company just implemented unlimited PTO on January 1. I'm going for 3 weeks of documented PTO this first year, I just hit a year at this company as a FTE so I don't wanna push too much. Also, we're busy as all get out so I'll just have to play it as it comes. And 3 weeks is a week more than I had available last year, so it's an upgrade. I'll try and ramp up over time as I am able.

Of course, I tend to get a lot of time off undocumented as well... half days here and there skiing or riding, errands, etc.

So give us a heads up before each of those weeks. I know I'm away the first couple of those in September.

In the bathroom, fighting a battle
Espresso situation unacceptable this AM.

Same beans, same grind, same process as yesterday, couldn't get a damn shot pulled. 90 seconds and only a few dribbles came out, shit was like hersey's syrup. So while I didn't get me correct wake-up juice this AM, at least I have a project for this evening. Why can't I just be happy with K cups, life would be so much easier.

:panic:

i never bother to log my time out of office unless it's an entire week or more, etc. for example this friday is a fuckit friday, won't be submitted. i just take days when i want to/can/don't have meetings or deadlines. my attitude has always been, if you don't like it or feel i'm not doing a good job, you can tell me about it. otherwise, i'ma do as i please.

Got my capstone score back. I was expecting some corrections being necessary, but maybe just outside of passing. Nope. 100%.

once at a race weekend at plattekill i completely forgot extra socks. literally the only socks i had the entire weekend were the work socks I was wearing as I had left straight from my office after work on friday.

this..... this definitely beats that.
