In America, we are working on the Monday before a holiday, and it sucks. Unless you're not, then it doesn't suck. Or your boss (or boss's boss) lets you leave early.

But still, some folks are working. And therefore, here's your thread.

    I'm working a short day. The market closes at noon my time so it's going to be dead.

    Hey so the end of the last thread is the first time I've seen Geth in a while and... I don't think I like their new look.

    I'm doing almost 0 work today, but at least I get to do it from home and don't have to put on pants for it.

    the bad news is that I'm working, but the good news is that it's ineffective and unproductive.

    I think for my next self-evaluation I'm just going to link my supervisor that clip of Homer telling his mother about his job at the nuclear power plant.

    I know what goes through manager's heads "Well it's better than giving them a day off and paying them for that" but like seriously, paying people to come in and do nothing probably costs you more overall. Can't shut off the lights, can't turn down how frequently the cooling kicks on, people aren't as well rested after a 4 day weekend, they get annoyed by your shitty policies, etc.

    My manager brought us all pastries this morning! I did not like it and didn't want to test my luck so I begrudgingly ate it.
    Was it a power move on his part?
    Or does he just have bad taste???

    No one else is in, so you feel at home and become more intimately acquainted with your surrounds.

    By which I mean, you can scent mark everyone else's shit.

    2.5 hours in and finally there is someone else in the office.

    I'd peace out at lunch, but someone put a 3:30 meeting on my calendar and if it wasn't the COO I'd fire them on the fucking spot.

    The choice was between a big talking head from Rick and Morty or a mystery box "cute" option. I picked the mystery box because I was anticipating something like Sparkling Princess Geth. Then the box is opened and it's another goddamn Rick and Morty reference. The good news is you pretty much only see it in D&D so it's easy to ignore.

    I've only built stages 1 and 2 and it is already taller than any other official Lego set I own including the Imperial Flagship and Town Hall.

    Needed a good quote on robot localisation, for a presentation to students, and am too tired/dumb to come up with one, so I googled around. By fortuitous accident, I came across someone else's talk on EXACTLY the subjects I want to cover in this one.
    ... and it wasn't till I'd read it twice that I realised it was a talk written/presented by my boss.

    In retrospect, using the building I'm sitting in as an example of a navigation challenge should have been something of a tip-off.


    (the bright side is, I can now steal chunks wholesale and it doesn't count as plagiarism).

    Pro to working today. One of the teams in my department decided to grill out and another guy in the building ordered like a dozen pizzas, so I just had the motherlode of free lunches.

    Con: Had to listen to a coworker talking about his cryptocurrency mining operation.

    He's got a GPU rig running now and is considering investing in storage for some new hard drive based currency, apparently.
