Shit that annoys you

[Name Redacted]

I remember living in the PNW, one time it snowed a foot. Work said people didn't have to come in if they couldn't make it, so no one did, except me (needed money for a trip to NZ). I drove my shitty 2wd Ranger to and from Mt Baker (1.5 hrs away and way more snow), skied pow, and made it in to work on time every day (and received extra pay for it). The next week I was regaled with horror stories of people not being able to get their cars out of their driveways.

Boston people are a bunch of damn wimps. It snowed ~8in overnight and our nanny is scared to drive because the roads next to her house aren't plowed down bare like the one in front of our house. It snows here, buy some damn snow tires, shovel your driveway and show up to work.

And they should definitely get winter tires if they plan to visit VT. The Mass car with all seasons during a snowstorm on I-89 is always good for a chuckle.

I'm annoyed by some shit...Pretty sure I've seen it mentioned here before...but Microsoft/company managed pc's. My work pc runs Windows 10 which has been mildly annoying since day one. It seems cluttered to me.

The inconsistencies and redundant features in their programs are a real first world problem guys.

I'll go back to work now.

Man, those punctuality weenies can't take a joke.

Add PA people to the list. An overnight FEDEX shipment I sent yesterday for about $180 has been delayed a day because, snow. Wouldn't have made a difference if the driver had sacked up and gone for it, the company is closed today as they got 2" of fluff. I'm sure there isn't enough dry ice in the box for the stuff to survive and it will most likely have to be reshipped.

Management that requires crazy levels of reporting so that they never get "surprised" is annoying. They seem utterly unaware that they are taking what are already fast-turnaround timelines with lots of work, and shortening those timelines and creating even more work.

They are good people and generally good managers otherwise. Which makes their blind spot here more bearable but also more annoying.

Come on, now. Most city folk ain't gonna want to drive in 8" of snow and you shouldn't expect them to.

And you probably don't want them to, especially if you are out on the road.

Precisely.

People in EWA are animals when it comes to snow. Just another day on the roads here.

Didn't KQ or someone day that donkeys will keep coyotes away?

Donkey (Standard or Mammoth. Minis won't work) and llamas (not alpacas) both make good gardians but so does adding a Great Pry or Kuvasz.

Don't sweat it, man. Those negatively impacted clients will quickly tell you what the limitations are.

Tell that to my son the surgery resident in Boston. He rides a bike to work all year, including in blizzards. Wears goggles if necessary. But he's a CA boy, not a local.

Yeah, some people are COMPLETELY nuts, like their old man.

I'm not that nuts. And the reason he does it is that the hospitals want to charge him $400/month for parking.

We did a standing rib roast last night. I didn't know the difference between a 1st cut roast and other cuts. Ours was not first cut, more fat than meat. I won't make that mistake again.

Well, I passed on laying some early morning pipe with the girlfriend and cut short petting and “thatsagoodboy!” time with the dogs to make sure I wasn’t holding anybody up this morning.

So, respectful of others’ time? I guess....

Have the next meeting at your girlfriend’s house. Everyone will be on time.

It's cold tonight. I hurt from surgery today. I am afraid and feel vulnerable.

I hate feeling like this.

Hang tight, man; you’re on the mend. You got this.

Give yourself a puffy hug and go easy on the scripts.

No pain meds allowed. So watching the Unit on the TV.
And just felt the weirdest thing. I can feel my pulse in my left leg. And can see viens poping up in places that were dead for a long time.

I keep seeing vision's of a cork popping out of an artoury and blood filling a leg. It's gonna be a long few days.

And I have a job interview Monday morning.

I need a job.
I had to ask my sister and brother-in-law to help me out with bills. That was hard. But of course they come through.

Anyway here IAM. I'm tired but sleep on my tummy. But the big blobs of gauze covering the big holes makes that difficult.

There! That's an overstate.

Oh. I got paper work.
The stints installed are Visi pro XD 7mm x 27 mm

And on the left side Visi pro 9mm x 27 mm stint

I don’t trust people that put “kind regards” at the end of email. They sound like fkn assholes.

I just put "regards", because fuck being kind.
