Tired and low effort/energy. I got promoted at work, and my brain has been working overtime to learn a bunch of important stuff as fast as possible because we lost two managers in about two months and they need me. So I bust my ass at work getting the hang of my new position, my first job in management of any sort, then come home too excited and full of thoughts to sleep well. So I’m trying to power down for a few days because I might be closing by myself as soon as this weekend. I love my job and management team. My assistant manager is my best friend, someone who genuinely cared about me before either of us got promoted. So today I’m sleepy, but satisfied.
I’m in a funk at work and it’s pissing me off
Not working. Partner is off and the eldest of my two kids is at school. In short…I’m hoping for a nice quiet day.
Enjoy!
Temparture is dramatic these few days. My colleague is sick. Hope he gets well soon!

Enjoy the swimming!
What is tinder like these days if you don’t mind divulging? I met my wife on Tinder (~2015) and while I’m ever-grateful I’ve heard horror stories from my friends about what it’s become.

It’s good to hear some people having a reasonable experience. When I moved to a new city I didn’t know anyone so I used Tinder to go on as many dates as possible and it was honestly nice getting out and meeting people I otherwise wouldn’t have at places I certainly did not know. Some weird stories mixed in but what is life without a few.

The beginnings of desperate. I’m being laid off in December, and I haven’t found a job in 2 months. I don’t want to be unemployed.
Hope you’ll get something soon. What field are you in?
IT management. Apparently the way to get roles at my level is “networking”, and I should’ve been doing it for years.
Laid off in June and I loathe this advice - "find an ‘in’ ". I don’t know what it’s like to have an ‘in’ and everyone that says they have something for me dematerializes the moment it’s viable. I wish you all the luck in the world my friend.
Yes exactly. Good luck to you too, if you’re still looking!
Disappointed by world events. But I’m going to a Pathfinder game with friends later on, so I can forget about it for a while.
