my first 3 day field work trip has ended with zero ticks (yay) but with my new bedtime being 9pm (boo)
a friend and I are currently considering making a trip to glacier natl park this summer and I was wondering if you had any recommendations for what to do there?
Oh do I!
If possible I definitely recommend staying on the east side of the park, somewhere near St Mary or East Glacier Park or Many Glacier. Any of those spots will put you closer to the east entrance of Going to the Sun Road (GTTS - this is the road that cuts all the way through the park) and closer to 2 other park entrances (Two Medicine and Many Glacier). The east side generally has a lot more hikes and more scenic/mountainous locations. West side has more places to stay so you might end up there just as a reality of booking late in the year. My friends and I stayed at Apgar last year and had a great time -- just be ready to drive 1+ hour to get to most hikes/activities that you want to do.
something is happening w my sisters grouphome provider so basically we're switching providers which means i'll quit and apply for whatever new provider we go with so I can keep working at her house WHICH MEANS I will have FIVE W2s on my 2026 tax return 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I did something in arc pro that somehow created an infinite folder loop that is un-deletable so I just changed the name to "infinite folder of doom" and it will be my pet now
2 fun office things. 1) turns out this guy who regularly climbs at my gym works for the employer who shares the same building complex/cafeteria as my employer so we ran into each other at lunch the other day and he said YOU WORK HERE??? as soon as I walked outside lmao and then at the gym tonight we were like hiiii coworker 2) I attached some photos with my cringe "hi i'm jenni" meet the new person email to my department and one photo was from glacier natl park and a coworker came up and said hey I recognized that photo, that was taken on the top of mt oberlin right? Which is a fairly deep cut, I was impressed, and it turns out he's gone to glacier 8 times so we talked glacier for a while. I love it here.
my minimum required time in office is 50% but if i work 60% (so, 3 days a week in office) I get my own dedicated cube instead of having to share rotating cubes soooo I am definitely doing that. Lol. Especially for a job where travel/field work counts as in office days and I have a lot of equipment to keep track of.. need my own cube 😌
starting a new job is just reminding yourself "everyone here wants you to succeed" over and over again LOL
between the new job where i have frequent travel, summer travel with my family/my bf's family, and my grouphome job, i counted that i will be sleeping somewhere other than home for 14 nights in june. lol. my mission to save on a/c costs is succeeding.
I just googled this and… yes, it’s absolutely real.
And there are so many articles and videos and discussions. Like, the scientific community is buzzing about this.
So much research will have to be redone because the data was absolutely compromised, off by orders of magnitude, by using standard lab gloves.
The world is probably not horrifically contaminated by microplastics. Sterile laboratories, however, are contaminated by latex and nitrile gloves.
Thank God someone bothered to check.
>I just googled this and… yes, it’s absolutely real.
Sources beyond dude just trust me, for the skeptics.
Scientists may have been unknowingly inflating microplastics pollution estimates, and the surprising source could be their own lab gloves. A

That should be enough
my first watch of better call saul when lalo laughed referred to max as gus's boyfriend i was like "woah hes homophobic!" but honestly with how he reacts to kim saying shes jimmys wife i think he might just find the concept of people being in love funny
I also got my third job this week (bf's friend is a catering manager so we are now on her roster for events and no one told me catering pays you millions of dollars so it's going to be fun and worth it) but filing out two I-9s in one week was a first for me. I am now #overemployed.
took an 8 hr long defensive driving course for my new job this week and apparently the constant low level anxiety i have while driving is something they have to teach people lol

So i'm at my first day of work very exciting i'm having fun with on-boarding paperwork and elearning modules of course, but this job is a 3 year temporary job which is fine thats a long amount of time but literally on day ONE my supervisor is already saying the other things they'd like me to do and continue to stay on after the 3 years and everyone is like you'll probably be here forever haha and i said why are you guys threatening me with SUCH a good time?? Oh no i have to have a government union job with a pension for the next 30 years damn that suuuucks....
My project lead who has been here for 30 years is once again telling me that he wants to keep me around and that his career started with a 2 year temporary job. Everyone wants to trap me in my dream job forever, damn...
Normal groceries like milk or bread or whatever running out is whatever. Just anotha day. But when stuff like salt or cooking oil or rice runs out it feels like You’re supposed to be here for me and you’re leaving. You’re just like everyone else
