Yesterday, the company I work for sent an email about donations for their Holiday Giving Drive through pledges. During lunch, one of the executives conducted a hard sell to get those pledges from employees going to and from lunch. For one hour and fifteen minutes, I stayed hidden at my desk, waiting to use the…

Another weekend gone. I did a few sketches to take my mind off things. Jaxx had his last vet appointment on Saturday. He registered at 18-weeks old and 6.2 pounds. He received his final shot for the year. Everyone loves him. Daylight Saving Time ended yesterday. Gaining back the hour lost feels more like a…

Another weekend vanished. Friday night I did a reaction video involving Bray Wyatt’s promo. Someone accused me of laughing but I wasn’t laughing because the promo wasn’t what I expected. I don’t think the person watched the video. I spent time drawing and sketching over the weekend. I had a lot on my mind and…

I feel that my current employer will fire me soon, and if that happens, I have nowhere to land. The cryptocurrency market is tanking. My small amount of investments is now worth less than…

The mood at work this week was dismal. Many of us are processing the feedback received. Despite the “fun” activities the new VP is committing to, the work behind the scenes feels cut-throat. The days feel numbered. I haven’t heard back since my interviews last week; maybe things didn’t go as well as they seemed.…

Yesterday, I had an interview due to happenstance. I have a couple of panel interviews this week, so we will see what happens. Things may once again come full circle. I had my first one-on-one with the new Vice President of Global Customer Success. He was apologetical 20-minutes late. We discussed his observations during his…

The first week of Spring, but it felt like Summer. Those on the East Coast will likely disagree. Another week of long hours and unrealistic expectations at work. We celebrated my grandson’s eighth birthday over the weekend. He is growing up quickly. I watched stand-up comedy performed by Earthquake, Arsenio Hall, and Jeff Foxworthy on…
