Put a friend in gryph and sent him off around the con.
It's fun being 5 paces behind your own suit and watching friends reactions half way through a hug when they look up and see me stood behind.

Ugh, apparently I didn't quite fully drain down the outside pipework last time and the latest cold snap claimed a casualty.
Also perfectly positioned to absolutely soak me when I opened that ball valve to turn the hose on. ;v;

It's looking like my days are numbered with my current job. I've just been asked to go to India to train up my replacements... Writings definitely on the wall now!!
Absolutely dreading re entering the job market, things have changed so much in 16 years.

Another mindfuck is realizing that decision about some aspect of a massive company. There wasn't some process or jury. There's just Some Person that decided most of it. And when that person is you, you get it. People come and think a choice was some huge deliberation. It wasn't. You just... decided.
Everyone who has ever worked their way up in a large org knows this.
At some point you look around and realize "wait... this is it?" - then you realize, its the same at every other large org on the planet.
And you realize that all of modern society just keeps working mostly by luck.

This looks far to shiny and new to be fitting to this very well used Massey 550 scraper tractor.
It's only in for a new engine and king pins rebuilding but going do something about that cab now

Spending my evening in Accident and Emergency having shards of metal dug out eye was not high on the list of how I thought my day would go today.
The whole experience is about as uncomfortable as you can imagine it being.
