still in the temporary office. looks like at minimum another week. dont mind it much. they keep it too warm sometimes and smelling folks lunch isnt fun but whatever.
and honestly breathing in the room we're in is not easy... a lot to do though so that helps in not thinking about it... but as I type this I begin to asphyxiate.
hard to complain about my set up in comparison lol
im soooore today. i did some boxing work out yesterday and a bit of weights. this morning i thought i went too light because i didnt feel a thing. now? i would kill for a massage lol
21. "It was a nice reset" In response to Reply # 14
I only stayed one night. Ride was about 90 minutes of fast, open highway. I love the woods. Not thinking about *anything* except for what I'm doing at the moment out there. It was pretty cool loading all my gear onto the bike and riding out too. I don't do that enough.
but if I eat too early like breakfast I get nauseous.. when i eat lunch I often ruin my appetite for dinner and tend to gain weight.. I snack after 3 and eat dinner but that's about it for my usual.... not saying it's healthy.. just that it's my habit.
most days I don’t feel like typing... I’m mentally tired...a good and bad thing.
/ I have the kind of hair that be all over the place. Not like weave. The real kinky kinky stuff. The other day at the market my granddaughter handed me a coil. Then I found one on top of my fridge - how the hell it get up there lol

23. "No good bastards. Gotta have this attitude" In response to Reply # 22
I used to have the Will Smith daddy reaction and it would fuck my confidence up for weeks.
Fuck all of them. They will rue the day.
Or whatever that saying is.

24. "Once I accepted that I was already at "no," it was much easier to..." In response to Reply # 23
deal with. I'd walk out only waiting for a "yes" because I, once again, already didn't have the gig.
The crazy thing is that I'm saying he ain't wanna be there anyway, because as I feel, them mofos sent an email and didn't even take the time to call.
If you call to invite me, at least call me to tell me you went another direction. Speaks to the bitchassedness of the organization and how they conduct business.
32. "I got some more info and insight this morning. It was politics as usu - ..." In response to Reply # 24
And the email didn't offend me, it wasn't from the actual organization, but from the school system in which the organization works (kinda hard to explain, it's a non-profit within the system). I got the interview invite via email as well. That's the school system HR shit.
But even still, it is most definitely the principal's loss, as she had most of the say so in who got hired, unfortunately. She already knew who she was going to hire before the interview process began. I'm really at peace with it, and again, their loss.
27. "i got a yogurt facial this morning" In response to Reply # 25

31. "Dude was standing behind me drying off a coffee mug w/ a paper towel" In response to Reply # 25
Dude has a whole office tho. The door to said office is right behind my back. That's where he was (the doorway) when I turned around and saw him standing there. Facing me. Drying off his coffee mug.
I bounced. Not sure what foolishness these folks are on, but I shouldn't be angry enough to wanna grip people up at 10am. Probably not gonna sit back at me desk until Friday, fuck all that noise.
Extroverts seem like insecure, ADHD-afflicted dickheads to me, but what do I know.
36. "separate lunch each day." In response to Reply # 35
And honestly I still have time to make it, as I work late today, but I won't. I woke up early with the intention of getting some exercise in and it was raining, and been off kilter and admittedly mercurial ever since.
I know it'll eventually click, but the early days are always a struggle for me.

44. "my headphones are hurting my right ear lobe" In response to Reply # 43
these things are usually super comfortable. i dont know whats up with that.
the zipper for the case gave out so i have been putting them in my backpack without the case. i doubt they were bent. ear is probably just being a punk.
i over reacted with the rain yesterday lol. it was real bad for like 30 minutes but it cleared completely up way before it was time to get out.
47. "what don’t hurt Wednesday..." In response to Reply # 43
my hands and wrists been bothering me. I’m still trying to wrap my mind around “getting old” is this what it feels like, body parts start aching out of no where?
48. "red light cameras were banned in texas" In response to Reply # 43
i think thats ....good?...whats the spin on this?
i also just got my thumbs up playlist on google playlist from over 6900 to just under 6400. mostly duplicates.
i really need to find a way to clean up my library on there, multiple copies of the same songs. i mostly want to remove low quality rips but no point in having the same exact song multiple times right?
i think im going to look at the thumbs up list per artist next to see which artists im missing.
50. "Passenger-side front CV boot damaged. Recommendation is to.." In response to Reply # 49 Thu Jun-06-19 12:33 PM by Creole
replace the axle. $2600!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (((Now, that's how you start a morning. Right?)))
I thank God for waking me this morning and letting me see the sun shine, my wife's smile, and the birds flying above. Even for the car I have that needs the work. I just rebuke this cost! Definitely won't be no trip to Seattle in August for her birthday.
Because I've recently dcided that I'm gonna keep this car for a while after I pay it off in early 2021, I'll get this done. Just not now. I need any further damage to hold off for a month or two. I wanna secure this mortgage financing before dropping that cash to get this repair handled.
Otherwise, it's Thirsty Thursday. I need a drank or three right now.
My wife is headed outta town on Saturday morning but will be back on Sunday afternoon. It's gonna be a party, y'all!
i buy one of them tubs of spring mix at the grocery store. it says 3.5 servings per container, i make 3 salads out of that. throw in 3/4 handfuls of cherry tomatoes, 3/4 handfuls of grapes, i add as much lunch meat as i would in a sammich (probably too much lol) and some cheese. add some dressing and it is very satisfying. i just get bored of it really.
i get full, it tastes good and i eat no bread. i know i need to cut back on the lunch meat but baby steps.
52. "can't breathe in the office today" In response to Reply # 49
the room is beyond maximum capacity.. had to leave and am working in the central atrium... I don't see this situation being remedied any time soon either... but I can't do it... the room is disgusting the air is thick like a locker room and I can't even get to and from my desk without physical contact or having to ask somebody to move... they're gonna have me looking for other work because this is untenable.
53. "I feel you, man. I *figuratively* can't breath in my office. " In response to Reply # 52
Haven't been at my desk since Monday... skipping meeting too, lest I *snap* as soon as they start wasting my time and brain cells belly laughing about some stupid shit.
59. "*shrugs* horrible things I did in previous lives?" In response to Reply # 55
building is just not big enough for the number of employees... they keep trying to make it work and force us to endure tho... gig is IT in canadian healthcare so everything is paid for by taxes.. so you know waste money here be super shoestring budget there type scenarios.
60. "when I did this for them on contract instead of as an FTE" In response to Reply # 57
I worked from home 90% of the time. And when I interviewed for the permanent position they lead me to believe that would be something I could continue to do... only to have that rug pulled out from me immediately.. I've been pissed and choked about it ever since.. not only took a paycut to move from contract to employee but it basicialle ruined my work environment and has made me miserable... now I just endure because I hate shopping for jobs.. but seldom a day goes by where I don't threaten myself to fix this... *sigh*... it WAS the perfect job.
I did just raise it to my team lead again this afternoon tho... but again nothing is really going to happen... folks are going to get a hygiene chat or something at most... the bigger issue about lack of adequate desks and facilities will just get pushed back down.
54. "Had a mini rage-out earlier. Went for a long walk. Gonna bounce early to..." In response to Reply # 49
Not only does my office suck, but when I go outside it's just more of the same passive-aggressive squares wandering around with sunglasses on making faces & shit. Working downtown would have been dope in my early 20s, but now it sucks a fat one. Just a bunch of insecure sheep wandering around.
