  • I had a “Big meeting” last week. It went more like

    1/2 day of adjusting the deck, a dry run, tweaks, feedback, wow I’m doing great this meeting is going to go great I’m so prepared!

    10 minutes after meeting starts… Important individual: “Let me stop you right there”, boss takes over meeting, meeting details.

    1/2 day of anxiety about how I did my best and it still wasn’t enough, and also how “Important individual” is an asshole and really just didn’t give a shit about the meeting in the first place. And to be clear… THEY REQUESTED THE MEETING WTF!!!

    You just can’t win sometimes.


  • Generally it’s fine to remove those but I would consider having it put back on if you live anywhere that gets snow. Reason being is that this plate protects undercarriage parts from excessive corrosion as a result of salt on the roads. So your car isn’t going to break down if you remove it, but if you plan to keep the car long-term, it can extend the life of those parts. As someone who works on my own car and has also had several 15+ year old vehicles, I can attest that this plate does indeed reduce corrosion in those areas.







  • The feeling is even better when they let you go because you no longer have a moral obligation to transition anything over to your coworkers. You can just fuck off and not feel bad. This typically highlights all the holes in management when they are ineffective at delegating your tasks and things get dropped. My husband witnessed this happen recently. They let an employee go nearly a year ago, then a client started sending emails wondering what was happening to their project and why there hadn’t been communication.






  • They may actually be hurting themselves in the long run. The amount of people I know that have decided to get chickens since the pandemic has increased far more than I ever expected it would. And if you’ve ever had your own chickens before, you know that there’s plenty to go around and you share with friends and neighbors. So not only are they permanently losing more customers to people getting chickens, they’re also losing customers to friends of people that have chickens. Plus all these people are getting much higher quality eggs from happy chickens, so why would they ever go back? I know not everyone can, but, the more people that start raising chickens the better!
