I currently have very strong "first day of school" feelings because the very small company I work for hired a new guy who starts tomorrow. I'm probably not even gonna see him or talk to him tomorrow but I'm still a touch anxious.

Today my boss called me just to thank me for doing a good job? I'm so confused.

It's official! Today was my last day. I'm currently unemployed, at least until Monday. I swear with God as my witness I will never clean another grease trap ever again!

Called it! I start in two weeks.
I might be getting a new job! It's probably going to sound arrogant, especially considering I have neither interviewed nor applied for it, but I really think I'm gonna get it. I come highly recommended by one of their 7 employees and I'm told the boss is "excited to meet with me".

Today I went to my first ever appeal hearing with a co-worker, representing ourselves and 6 more. Nobody was in trouble, we just want more money and not to have to deliver picnic tables. We had support from our foreman and a Union rep. I'm trying to keep my hopes from getting too high.

Have you ever seen car commercials with a disclaimer that says "Professional driver on a closed set. Do not attempt." but they're just like, driving normal on a road? What do these people expect us to do with these things once we buy them? Just hangout in the driveway and listen to podcasts?

This is probably a little niche, but if I'm not mistaken Corb Lund is actually playing Ian Tyson's guitar in the music video for El Viejo, which makes it like 100 times sweeter.

I checked my step count after working a 5K in which I did not participate. Turns out I walked over 10 kilometers. It's like I did two 3 and a half hour 5K's in one day accidentally, which I'm beginning to suspect isn't actually impressive.

Me, flirting: Just so you know, because of my OSHA training I'm legally considered a "competent person" 😉

Well, it happened again. And by it I mean I cussed out French-speakers on Call of Duty in French while telling them I don't speak French, which is mostly true.

Not that anybody needs to know, but if you wanna do a Mike Lindell impression, trying to talk while choking on a big bong hit gets you 90% of the way there.

Speaking purely anecdotally, it turns out if you loudly but calmly tell a black bear to fuck off it will do just that.

Anybody wanna help me with an utterly important mystery? I wanted to learn if there is any significance to the tombstone in the Thriller music video that reads "Claire Sisk Reeves". I found a clue that it's recycled from season 3 episode 1 of a show called The White Shadow. Can anybody verify this?

I am more rigorous about cleaning out the gunk from under my nails than clipping them. I often look like I have a French manicure.
