I'm up. Doggos are fed. Run is done. Showered. I'm wearing pants. And a shirt with a collar. And I'll be digging my boots out of the closet. All so I can go spend my morning in a mask sitting in a meeting room refreshing my project management skills. I don't have enough hours in the day for this kind of time waste. #sigh #morecoffee
@Helical_Code I'm opting for the IV drip today! PM training is followed by the project task force meeting, followed by the meeting to discuss some errant field data, followed by the risk analysis/go-no-go meeting on a new project task. Days like this drive me insane with the lack of productivity. I hope your coffee is strong and effective this morning :)
@j0n only 21 more years to go! (assuming I can retire at 65)
@Foxthorn Little too early for that countdown timer… 😉 but think of all the good you can do in those years!
@j0n My mentor retired this year and it has really hit me harder than I thought it would. I know it's time for me to be the adultier adult and I'm really glad he's doing all the fun things, but I miss him like crazy.
@Foxthorn I know that feeling… I retired after 35 years of public service with mist of it being a very rewarding experience; can’t say I’d do it any differently given the chance. What I miss most are the people I was proud to have worked with every day and the feeling that I made a positive difference in the lives of those around me.
@Foxthorn Ahh. Reminds me of the endless staff meetings where we all wish we were just given time to work in our rooms. Hope you have plenty of coffee.
@GrandmaJ In-office meeting done. I survived. Felt really weird to put on pants and work boots though. Now for an afternoon of remote meetings.
@Foxthorn
Good morning! So sorry you have all day meetings to learn something you already know. I hope that at least there's a bottomless coffee urn involved.
