I like working on commercial buildings because usually no one is around. I don't like working around strangers, it's weird now.

i like that we found out wfh made people happier and more productive, decreased traffic, helped us get cleaner air, etc. and that made really rich people angry. i think theres something to learn from all this...

shooting the rich out of a comically giant canon WOULD be fun

If I have to come in for 2 weeks every month Im going to decorate my office with communist mottos

I go into the office nearly every day because my commute is 7 min, if I go to the gym before work I'd have to pass the office twice going back home, we have a caf with hella cheap breakfast, it's empty all but two days of the week and my wfh space sucks.

Basically if I move I probably wouldn't come in more then I have to. But being forced into the office is hella stupid.

this was the ultimate justification for forcing us back in to the office: the guys working in the plant can't do it from home and it's not fair to them to let people who can

my job is impossible to do as a wfh but I have no problem with other people at my organization doing it if they can

that's my two cents

I had a tree fall this weekend and lay on the power line connecting my house to the run of powerlines on the road.

I never lost power, and the cable looked OK, just sagging with the top 1/3rd of the dead tree leaning on it.

I can cut trees - I'm no pro, but I do it often enough. But decades of "NO LINE IS SAFE TO TOUCH, EVER", made me extremely wary to try.

I called the power company, and to my amazement they had two guys out here in about 4 hours and took care of it in 15 minutes.

People up here bitch about the power company but this is the 3rd or 4th pretty amazing experience I've had with them.

may taste ok but probably will have funny aftertaste due to preservatives and bland recipe, most likely leaves you feeling crappy and underwhelmed but if you're really hungry and desperate just eat it and live another day

It can be spicy and flavorful and quite delicious, so if you're Scottish the answer is no
