  • I had a boss at my first office job that lived across the street from the office. A literal blizzard hit and he still insisted we all come in. I tried my best, but there’s only so much I can control. I left 1 hour early knowing it would take forever and I was still going to be late. I should have said fuck it and called off work, but I was young and stupid, so instead I called in to let them know I’d be late. When I got there I got an ear full about how it wasn’t that bad and he made it in just fine. I showed him a photo of all the snow piling up 5-10 feet along the roadside as it blew in from the cornfields. He acted like I must live in Alaska or something. Like bro how long have you lived here and you don’t know this is a possibility?

    Beds seem to have their own personalities that interact with your own. You likely picked out your own bed and it’s just right for you and feels the best! But then you stay at your folks place and the bed they offer does the job but it’s sort of old and stuff and not as inviting as yours. Or maybe you stay with a friend on their futon and it’s lumpy and the sheets stick to your clothes. Nothing beats your bed at home though.









  • This is why working from home was such a game changer. I could throw a load of laundry in and fold it during a meeting. I could go to the grocery store on my lunch break. I could use the extra 3 hours a day I would normally take commuting to do things like exercise, cook a healthy meal, or just get more sleep. Fuck the healthcare company I work for that insists that in-person interactions are more important than the quality of life I had working from home.
