Now and Then

I rolled over in bed and squinted at the red glow that was my alarm clock: 10:12AM. Ugh. I don’t want to, but I get up anyway, rubbing my eyes and thinking I really need to lower the temps on the thermostat so the air conditioner will run even cooler during the night. I go…

When the only way to be a good employee is to be a really, REALLY bad one

The software I used at my job is finally being upgraded after decades of use.
