Never talk to management over the phone. Get it in writing either as a text or email.

My father’s career advise to my brother and me was “Make lots of money so I can come live with you when I get old.”

My brother didn’t like that advise so he did a bunch of research and asked a bunch of people about their careers. He got a masters in an Engineering field but hated working in that field. So he got another masters. He doesn’t use it for his career.

I studied Chemistry and left grad school to do software development with no degree in it (it was the 80s). I never used my degree either.

Confronting my dad about his bad career advise would have just gotten his Standard Response to Criticism™–But I’m lovable.

And no he never lived with either of us. But then he never go old.

When some random #MAGAidiot complains that one of Trump’s new policies is hurting them, instead of blaming Trump, just remind the idiot “Isn’t that what you voted for?”

Also, when some #MAGAidiot complains that Trump’s new policies are impacting them, don’t blame Trump. Ask the idiot “Isn’t this is what you voted for?”

I wonder to this day what happened to mom’s Lladro figurines and the Royal Dalton tea cups. I’m sure my sister got Nana’s sterling and Mom’s plate. It’s really sad that the Danish modern furniture had to go before she moved up here but she was happy with IKEA and CostPlus replacements.

I got her pots, which was all that mattered to me. There’s something symmetrical in making Boeff Bourguignon in the same pot you learned to make beef stew at age 14.
