big audit tomorrow. We're zeroing in on a guy who has underinflated every ball in the gym for the entirety of the school year. We're not sure if it's laziness or the inability to operate the inflation machinery but either way...THIS GUY IS GOING DOWN.

Supervisor leaving for a better position. Happy for him, but management has brought in someone with just enough knowledge to be dangerous. Seems hellbent on making a name by changing everything that has produced impeccable results.

Looking forward to my own transfer.

At the pallet factory. Our inventory is being stolen by someone re-using it whose employed by the school system. Law enforcement are searching. Shoot on sight orders have been passed down.

and frankly I'm tired of that as well as tired of working for free.

I feel like exec mgt has figured out that in an "emergency" people will step up and go above and beyond, and are now taking advantage of us.

And as soon as this "crisis" is over, they'll probably start back with the layoffs again.

I want/need a new gig.

Realized just before dark that I had missed a spot of grass when cutting the lawn. And, one of my biggest dividend stocks was only paying out half next quarter. I may have to release the wiping butler. The stress is almost unbearable. Things are starting to spiral!

It's still very difficult to find workers. The labor market is still tight.

Well, we just had our 4th cancel for our morning Pickleball match. Trying to find a replacement is very stressful and is just like work. Someone did agree to play later this afternoon. However, then we run into not being able to finish by our Happy Hour time at the club. So, I'm somewhat rattled at the moment.

need some help Civil-wise splitting utilities, buildings, driveways, etc.

We have put in 2 proposals on top of the other project we have for them. Feels like endlessly chasing new work but it will hopefully pan out.

Putting in another proposal for a local gov't to do some roadway work for them. It is not my specialty, but I am the local PM so I am leading it. Going to depend on alot of other people to help me pull it together. So far, it is not a priority for them.

Lots of small NCDOT legacy projects that just won't end.

Kids have endless sporting events and need a ride to all of them. Probably gotta sell my Hayes and the Heathens with OCMS tickets for this weekend due to soccer matches out of town.

Not getting laid enough.

Grass is high, but it keeps raining when I have time to cut it.

Left quad and hip are hurting some, trying to see if I need rest or need to stop being a little bitch

Got earwax buildup in my right ear, hopefully the clean-out kit from Amazon coming today works well. Never had this before, but it kills my hearing.

Not too bad, if you want to know the truth. It could be worse, and will at some time, but will be better too.
