Are you high?

Whenever you buy music, try to buy from the band directly if at all possible. If not, check that their label has a merch store. Prices won’t be much different but in most cases, the band gets a larger take of the sale.

Aaaannd libraries typically have a fairly large set of audio CDs to check out, take home, and… listen to (cough)

WAT

This is the way.

Yeah that’s what the gov agency said about it around the time of the Flint water crisis. “Allegedly” is the key word here. Thats when I read a whole bunch of research on it. Could have been complete bullshit, who knows.

You think about that and the actions of the USSR gov, depicted in the HBO series Chernobyl, and you have to wonder if the US response would be much different. Three Mile Island would probably like a word.

With the pitcher filters, be sure to change the filter often and scrub the pitcher/tank often. Algae can grow in them, causing all sorts of issues.

This is why Obama didn’t really address the flint Michigan water situation. Once they started testing there, other cities would start. Boom, national crisis. ALLEGEDLY the coating that forms on the inside protects against lead poisoning but, who knows. And if chemistry changes drastically, like Flint’s case, it can remove that naturally occurring coating.

Oh there would be plenty of strokes, I’ll grant you that.

Does anyone else smell strawberries? 💨

Lunch. Even though I work from home, I have a standing rule to never eat in my office. Never. I always go to the kitchen or dining room, and take my time.

Good luck to you my friend.

I lived in Texas for 30 years. For the last 10-15, I heard a gun in my area - in the city, nowhere near a gun range - at least once a week, if not more.

I finally left the state of insanity and we’re much happier for it.

It sounds like there is some other sort of resentment at play here. Is there some other underlying attribute the coworkers who annoy you share? Example: Are they friends outside of work and you are not? Is it a racial or ethnic difference? Look for the reasons why they specifically “set you off” and address those biases. Try to better understand them as people first.

You say they are lazy - is it your job to police them at work? If not, then do your work and get promoted. Then you can actually do something about it. Until then, back off unless they prevent you from doing your job. Maybe when they see you are doing better than they are, maybe they’ll follow your lead.

If you want to be a leader, lead. Be the change you want to see. Take pride in yourself and your work, inspire others.

Anyway, ask yourself those questions and be honest. If you are troubled by the answers, start there.

Hope this helps

We all know that’s total bullshit because Mel Gibson has no friends.

My cats are in a constant state of amazement: “Wow! Wow!”

Assistant manager at a Burger King. One day, he WILL make manager. You’ll see.

There were those bars in the early 2000s with dueling pianos. Yeah, no. Definitely not those.

I can recommend the Dr. Bronners pine Sal Suds. It’s got that pine aroma but a little less over the top, and it rinses cleaner.
