Things they didn’t teach you at school

Is there a mental disorder where a person blames everyone and/or everything else for their problems, but never examine their own action or inaction as the problem itself? And at the same time fancies themselves a benevolent champion of sorts?

How do you handle such lunacy?

If I’m going to have a mental breakdown, I just need to know if there’s Wi-Fi in the psych ward.

Into the nineties

A long time ago way back in college, I heard this mix on Ministry of Sound’s Chillout Sessions and couldn’t for the life of me figure out what one of the track was called.

Fast forward a couple of years, one of my account directors who happened to be some old school underground jungle drum and bass dude, happened to have a copy of that mix (like I don’t even remember how we started talking about it) but it was like… an untitled mp3 file.

1.5 decades later I find out the mix is curated by a “DJ Sean” and the track I really wanted has no name and essentially has been lost to history.

The universe is just openly mocking me now.

I basically fed ChatGPT my email thread and asked it to analyze the behaviors of the people sending the email.

My EOY review will be all about asserting boundaries and protecting my mental health.

End of year chaos

BTC hit $100k earlier today. It’s a crazy timeline!

I’m still poor though so here I am bitching about the most latest work thing: a Personal User Manual. That’s right you disingenuous fucks, let’s just skip the nuance of building relationships and assume that reading a manual replaces the organic process of learning how to work with someone.

The joys of CONsulting

We recently hired a project manager who apparently isn’t going to manage projects (baffling, right?). She’s just supposed to “set us up with Agile methodology” and provide us with the right tools. It’s not a workshop, it’s a 3 – 6 month contract.

Have I been working incorrectly my entire life? I thought working actually required doing the work…
