#office thoughts

[dodgermd]

Something that has been haunting me since a while - my office worker friends - we live in a time where online services and mobile phones make you available for your work colleagues and bosses pretty much 24/7.

THAT. SHOULD. NOT. HAPPEN.

Think about how things would be, if we lived in the year 1971. Once you leave the office, nobody would be able to call you. Maybe at home, if you gave them your home number, but if you wouldn't be home, nobody could call you AND IT WAS OKAY!

Or imagine we were in the year 1731. Nobody would be able to call you at all. You would need to write a letter and wait until it arrives. AND IT WAS OKAY!

So normalize not being available after working hours. It's self-care and it is okay. It is not okay to except you to devote yourself to your job. A job is a great, but it's not what should stress you 24/7.

IT IS OKAY TO NOT BE AVAILABLE!

I hope we'll have a game with Baby Yoda's adventures.

Just this Green Bean walking around, touching buttons and eating frogs...

Okay, Cu fishing is a thing and that’s awesome.

But have ya’ll considered:

> Cu Chulainn being introduced to sky diving

> Cu Chulainn being taken to the races/derby

Because I have and my thoughts are that the Celt is an adrenaline/hype junkie and would drag whoever took him once along with him a lot after that first time.

So...random thought, but school is basically sitting in a room with other people you at best like very much and at worst feel are an absolute pain all day and do stuff that most of the time is kinda useless for the rest of your life until you go home each day...so...just like your good olde office job. Is school actually preparing us better than we all thought?! XD

That's nonsense.

I found this picture on Pinterest, browsing on my computer, instead of do my job....

How does one count divorces?

In this episode of "work side quests", my coworkers were talking about divorce (a plot point in several of our books we had been chatting about today). Engineering proposed: you count divorces as a singular event (if two people are married and split that = 1 divorce) Marketing proposed: you count divorces by individuals impacted (if two people are married and split that = 2 divorces) Obviously this is an incredible use of company time.
