When I moved into my current apartment, the off-street parking was a gravel lot in the backyard. All three cars (my vehicle plus the two belonging to the couple who live in the other unit) had ample space to park and to turn around, so no one had to back down the ridiculously narrow driveway. There was even room for a fourth car.
A month later, the concrete pad for a garage was poured. Now only the car parked in the middle space has room to turn, but all three still fit (barely). We make it work.
Last week, over a year after the foundation was poured, framing went up for the garage.
It is a 2-door garage.
Overnight parking on the street is illegal.
Hmm.
edit: I work from home, which makes this work-related... right?

Peanut butter or artificial cheese crackers for sure, and some good beef jerky. Play a game where every half hour you eat a cracker and every two hours you get a slab of jerky. At the midpoint, you drink a Dr Pepper. Worked wonders to pass the time on the tractor.
I had to sit in training today and have explained to me the importance of doing a specific system evolution. An evolution that I have been telling management for months that we need to do, because we have been having equipment instabilities that this procedure would fix. Except management decided to lay up the equipment needed for doing the procedure for like 3 months because they are just really intelligent people.
I nearly lost it in training. Like really, I almost had to get up and leave. I think things are getting to me....
Just had an alum reach out for email help. Except they graduated in 2016 and their shit should've been turned off like 3 years ago. So now I gotta be a dick and report her account and have her login turned off and all her stuff deleted and she just wanted to add her email to her phone.

I feel like a damn cop rn.
My university has been lightly discussing lifetime alumni email to resolve this issue. But on the other side of the coin, there's the desire to no longer be an ISP - giving someone a .edu email address isn't the selling point it was in the 80s / 90s, and it comes with a lot of baggage. Of course, if we had students bring their own email, there are still FERPA concerns, there's questions of spam, and of course there are legit students who don't have email or access to technology. And naturally, we need our own business email to conduct university tasks and such with.
It's... a minefield. Don't feel bad for being the cop; find who let the account not get auto-deprovisioned (with proper notifications) and chew them out.

Is this a situation where you can be all "Hey, I have to do this thing. I'm really slammed, so it will take me 24/48 hours to get it done, but at the end of that time period all your shit goes POOF so grab what you need now?."
Not that I've ever done anything like that in similar circumstances, nosiree cybersecurity folks.

Honestly I might not have even made the ticket but the student decided they were gonna call back tomorrow so now I kinda gotta cuz if somebody searches her and sees where I didn't make the ticket (and they way the student reached out it's easy to see whether or not I did it) then I'd get in trouble. BUT because they're gonna call back I can just make the ticket and sit on it for a couple of days with the excuse of I was waiting to see if they called in or not before sending it up to avoid duplication. So that's a thing.

We have the alumni emails but it's a separate system so the student login is still supposed to get turned off and everything gets rolled over to the alumni side which is mostly a different department that we never have to mess with because FUCK helping graduates from the year of our lord one-thousand-nine-hundred-and-fifty log in to check their fucking email.
e: and yes, it happens. A lot. We have a retired professor who is over 90 years old who calls us like weekly because they can't understand 2FA.
The bad thing about what happened last night is I was silly and still stayed at work even though I was mentally gone?
I had to get a few things my brother asked for and I feel he is cursed as he somehow gets unworking codes on cards {Like phone time cards, eshop cards and so on}
Just I remember the receipt but I have no idea what happened to it
And I had a weird thing at dinner
I got really hot then really cold puked a bunch then I am fine? WTF happened to me in the last 24 hours
Still
I found all receipts I had in my backpack and around yet all but that one?

Yeah, basically anything that you can jam into a tortilla would be my go-to. Or like a pasty, but unless you’re getting the workout of a tin miner the pasty might be too many calories.

This sounds like it could be a concussion my dude. You should seek medical attention via any avenue you have open to you as soon as you can.
That's what I was trying to get at, I'd be lying if I said I didn't sit for like ten minutes thinking "If I post 'They fucked on the bench', will it be obvious that I mean to reference 'they fucked on the boat'?"
I even tried to find the original thread to check the cadence, but I couldn't locate it.
This is why I probably have more unposted drafts than posts.
It's from a very old thread from Help & Advice about someone discovering their SO cheating on them with a mutual friend. I can't find the thread off hand due to the search function on this forum being really inaccurate.
i am in a twitter fight with a straight white guy abut how he thinks we should treat trump supporters with care and respect and not hate them or we're no better then they are and gonna be honest it is not one of the high points of my life
Bored at home with the kid watching Paw Patrol: Oh I'll read my e-mails on my work phone.
I'm a fucking dimwit. I'm not paid to read those e-mails when I'm not on the clock and now I have low level anxiety from a negative e-mail.

Good news! My new work laptop has a camera that actually shows me with regular human skintones. The camera on my personal laptop makes me look like business-casual Thanos, and I've never been able to find a way to change the color balance.

We have hydraulic hand trucks at work for moving crates and pallets of stuff. They are really maneuverable and now I've got the hang of them I can move stuff around with style.
I've also been getting into Elite Dangerous lately. Which might explain why I've started making spaceship noises when parking pallets.
