I was 14 at the time, my memories of the Ice Storm of '98 are similar!

Same!

Putting on makeup in public; specifically thought of refreshing lipstick at the table in a restaurant while waiting for the check.

You have to roll forward and reconcile the fixed assets every month or you will spend days catching up at year end, invariably finding a prior period issue that has to be corrected in the current period.

I was warned, but trusted the system too much - it can’t regulate human error, no matter how many controls are in place!

And then leave it in the front of the parking spot, where you can’t see it until you’ve committed to pulling in. Forcing you to back out, gesturing towards the windshield to communicate to the guy that was waiting for you to pull all the way in (who now has to stop to let you out and know you’ll beat him to another spot since you’re in front) that some jackass left a cart in the spot and it’s not your fault!!

If there are three legs, and one is a different height, the table won’t wobble but the top will be slanted. Probably still not ideal at a coffee shop, but at least it won’t move!

Thank you!

So true! ☹️

PHEV is the answer! Give us options, doesn’t have to be one of the other; Chevy Volt had it for a bit, but it must not have been profitable because now I can’t find a PHEV that gets more than 30 miles on a full charge!

I loved my Volt… Charged overnight in a normal 110 outlet got me the 43 miles to work and back (after about year 5, not quite the whole way) but I could still decide to go on a 600 mile road trip spur of the moment. Had to give up the 2014 in 2023 when a full charge wouldn’t go 20 miles. ☹️

There is no PHEV comparable now, though! Made the switch back to full ICE and I hate it.

Why reheat?

Switching the hot breakfast for a cold one is a bold move!

Now we will have the “beastlykings” weekday breakfast at my house. I appreciate you!!

I’m struggling with the “little to no preparation required” part, I can see prep the night before for everything but the avocado and toast. Any tips to avoid cold hard bread and brown slimy avocado?

I’m not good at hobbies, I think I’m so brainwashed that work has become my hobby. Except the work I do as a “hobby” is my previous job (in a different department at the same company) that I haven’t officially done for 3.5 years, they’ve hired 3 consecutive replacements for me, weird that they keep quitting cuz there is too much pressure to get 65+ hours worth of work done a week. I guess they must have real hobbies, family, friends… It’s been suggested, after the exit interviews, that I might be the problem and created unrealistic expectations for the role.

I need a real hobby, but I haven’t been able to find anything as fulfilling as turning on the work computer after hours and getting shit done when there is nobody about to interrupt, there are no actual expectations or requirements and then I’m actually told I’m appreciated! Hobbies take so much effort.
