The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

Urgh. The last two weeks at work have been a shit show. Teams that thought they were aligned or not talking to each other and are actually unaligned.

Or maybe misaligned. I don’t fucking know which.

At least my team has a shit together as we prepare for our big leadership sales meeting at the end of the month.

As for the other teams on my change projects… God only fucking knows. I’d like to assume everything is going to go on schedule. All my communications are planned, all the senior leadership teams have been briefed, all the impacted users are aware of the change

Now, just to get two teams un-fucked… there seems to be a lot of face-saving, holier than now attitudes, assumptions, and agreements that were made…

@Wat_Tyler I will be taking a few pages from your playbook as I’m off to whack a couple of weasels heads together and an 8 o’clock meeting.

It’s typical corporate bullshit, not unlike anything I haven’t dealt with before. The world will still turn. A paycheck will still arrive. My stress level will fluctuate.
Why do grown-ass adults need to be treated like toddlers??? 🤬🤬

Kick ass and take names, W!
 
I’ve logged many a weekend 🕺💃🏽hitting the clubs…that’s long in the rearview though…
In Korea we had 121 bars in our “down range” village…we’d do pub/club crawls starting at the first as we left the gate, and hit the tried and true places. There might have been some dancing involved…having said all that, my musical tastes run the gamut. I’m in a bluegrasss/newgrass phase as of late…



Helping momma today. Did my part yesterday by watching our granddaughter all afternoon so she could get some rest. She’s not sleeping well but we’re forcing her to eat and she’s up and about. Good news basically on all fronts except rest.

Does she have something to help her sleep? I've had some success with Valerian. It's an herb you can get OTC. Sleepytime tea works for me, too.
 
Well we are off to the north coast of Scotland on Saturday so now it’s preparation time for an eight or ten hour drive with trailer, five dogs in the trailer and copious amounts of fishing tackle. We will be staying in a friends Croft for two weeks in the middle of nowhere. It is peaceful and picturesque so I hope to get some good photos for you all. We are right on the coast and next stop is Iceland so we need good weather and so far the forecast is good… so fingers crossed for a good break, walking, fishing and chilling.
Sounds idyllic, G! Looking forward to seeing the photos. Have a fun time! 💞🥰
 
You can spin a lot of tractors around on one wheel too. Most (that I know of) have independent rear brake pedals. Turn the wheel, slam one brake and they'll turn a 180 pivoting on that one rear wheel. It helps if they and have a light front end and heavy rear. (I mean the tractor, not the woman driving it! :unsure: ) :ROFLMAO:
Glad you clarified that, DKA! 🤣🤣
 
Sounds like a lovely day. The tigers are just amazing. This could be their year!
It is the year of the Tigers! In my life so far, I saw the 62 Tigers in a race with the damn Yankees, the 68 Tigers with World Series played in daylight, the Tigers in 84 with Sparky, and the Tigers during Jim Leyland era. I have been blessed and thank my grandpa for turning me into a baseball fan.
 
Good morning Wat. I had my annual physical yesterday. More testing to determine cause of lower back pain on the right side of my back. I am stopping PT until we know more.

Getting older is not fun. Alone it’s even worse. Sorry that I am feeling sorry for myself. That’s not me.



My lower back pain on the right side, when I had it 10 year ago, was arthritis in my right hip. One new joint later and all is well.
