Case

No no, I get it.

I do my best not to bother with form.

I just make shit work.

If you wanna pretty up my scripts for some sort of distribution, go for it.

But I’m done with it after that. That’s the companies problem now.

Don’t be self conscious, be self aware .

If your wedding tackle has shifted at all during your swim, may be try to get out away from the others a bit, not a creepy amount, but like… Be on one end of the group, turn away slightly when transitioning from water to land, place your hands “casually” in a way to cover yourself without drawing attention, all sorts of little tricks you’ll internalize before you know it, but it starts with being self aware.

Yeah, and if you get out of the water and have a “flattering” outline in your shorts, its suddenly becomes a much larger issue being the only adult male, and with children around… eesh.

WD-40 is not a lubricant, it can do it short term, but makes things worse long term.

WD-40 literally stands for Water Displacement - Formula 40.

Its to keep mechanical components hydrophobic so they don’t rust or otherwise degrade due to the presence of water.

For locks and keyways, you want powdered graphite as a lubricant. I keep a small tube (puffer style) in my pick kit if needed.

Or slightly more expensive, if legal in your area, are actual locksmith tools.

I have a pick set I busted out this morning to unlock a pad lock on our circuit breaker (outside for some stupid reason, locked because its a new development and we had construction workers turn the house off while me and the wife were the only people on our respective jobs working the shift remotely)

We need power to run desktops. A UPS is handy, but its a bandaid to shut down correctly until power is restored fully.

I been dealing with ADHD (diagnosed) since the age of 7.

It is a pendulum, but it doesn’t just swing back and stop.

Throw in bipolar disorder, and your world can go to shit rapidly and you probably will not understand how until after you’ve done the damage of trying to fix it.

Don’t worry, the anarchists and anti-whatever folk will bring bricks with them to throw.

They don’t always, trust me.

That being said, I miss our mom-and-pop Italian restaurant, and the same owners of a Mexican casual place across the street from the Italian place.

I know (for a fact) they take people straight out of rehab or jail, and train them on fine dining waiting, at least at the Italian location.

Give them an upscale skill that will still hire felons (or addicts in recovery), train em up, and be happy for their future success as an individual rebuilding their life, even if it isn’t at THEIR restaurant. They also understand that addicts may have lapses. My BIL works for them (now) but previously, their chef started showing up at the BIL’s AA meetings before he pretty much blackballed himself from his industry (The BIL, for clarity).

He didn’t violate AA rules, but he cautiously asked after the chef… yeah, he was cooking and drinking, and the food quality suffered. They gave the chef a week off, paid, to get his shit together - frankly speaking.

And he did. He spent the first couple days TANKED, and then sobered up again.

The owners are good people, but they’ll work you lol. Its a paycheck on par with the position, maybe a little better, but you’re gonna work up a sweat.

I’ve been in an office for the past ~12 years, and am looking for work in my new state, but just yesterday I applied for a job that consists of “pick up heavy boxes, put them elsewhere.” Today, not mentioning other jobs, I applied for a prep chef position. I’m not afraid of sweating, or even bleeding to an extent, but I need a paycheck lol.
