Pivot! PIVOT!
Sorry, I had to.

Exactly. I wouldn’t be working in some office job; I’d be volunteering my time to give back to the community, keep me active, and maybe make some friends. All part of keeping from becoming a weird hermit, which is my natural instinct.
We draw stock internationally via FedEx, with usually at least one shipment arriving per day.
If I have a particularly urgent order for my customer, I will of course be tracking the incoming shipment.
Every. Damn. Time. I visit their website, I get halted in my usual manic pace by their stupid, slow to load pop up. I haven’t even been able to figure out how to block it, and usually don’t have time when I’m working to figure these things out.
Our company gives you so much money, FedEx - why do you have to be so difficult to work with as thanks?!
I have taken up cross stitching and can spend an entire day just sitting and working on a one.
I want to watch ALL THE TV SHOWS AND MOVIES before I die (well the ones that interest me), but my hands get bored so usually I’ll play Switch games but then I’m often not really paying a lot of attention to either thing.
With cross stitching, I can get focused if it’s a difficult part or I’ve made a mistake, but mostly I can follow the plot of the show/film much better.
Plus I get a lovely physical “trophy” at the end, and have given a few as gifts.
I know it’s not really that important but when I can’t sleep, or when I wake up at 3am, it’s all I can think of.
What do you call that?
I’m only using Chrome for work because the profile switching & syncing is so much smoother and our company is split into two primary brands - my brain handles it better with an individual browser profile for each.
We’re consolidating everything into one next year, meaning I can ditch the second browser!
I’ve tried setting up a second profile but it was just too much effort to get it working and bring everything across from both, then do the same on my laptop for travel, so I’ll just wait for now.
Good ol’ Spiderface Spez.
I got rolled into our floor rug as a kid, we were messing around and I thought it would be funny. It was not and a panic attack was had.
I’m at the point where I prefer to rewatch shows or movies, and reread books, rather than try something new. The closest I can think to describe it is like slipping into a warm bath. Very cosy.
Lately, I’ve been working though my film library picking a film from each letter of the alphabet. It encourages me to watch something new, or at least something I may not have seen in the last decade - because it could be a while before I loop back around, so I don’t want to throw away the letter!
It’s also helped me find the names of several books and films that have been rattling around in my mind, some for decades, which actually made me very happy because not remembering that sort of thing drives me a little mad.
I’m stuck on two books that it can’t work out - both absolute trash pulp fiction, one that I stopped reading because it was so terrible and the other that was so bad but I actually wouldn’t mind reading again.
Oh well, can’t have it all.
USB & me: third times the charm!
My issue is at work, “I’ll just do this one more thing”, and then instead of my usual 2pm lunch, it’s now suddenly 3pm which even for me is crazy late…
I have a feeling that wouldn’t be legal.
When I had to change price tickets, from memory, the lower prices went into effect that morning, but any price increases wouldn’t go into effect until the next day?
The customer always receives the lower price, and I didn’t get screamed at when I hopped back on the cash register.
Me reading a poem.
Me rereading a poem.
😡 < me giving up on reading the poem.
Features make car go brrrrrrrrm
I’m not disagreeing with your point, but it’s funny; if a result is “sponsored”, my first thought is “what is wrong with it? Is it crap?”.
Yeah it was more the cutesy picture that threw me off. Most of the meat I buy just has a silhouette of the animal in question.
I guess it’s not the worst idea to have a greater understanding, and hopefully respect, of where your food comes from.
Meet your meat!
As someone who used to be so flat in their verbal communication that they were nicknamed Daria (my hero at the time so I wasn’t too upset), and worked really hard to change that so they could function in society, I am certain I would struggle hard with Chinese language if that’s the case.
I’ve been marking these advisor emails as spam in our ticketing software for ages, they set off all my alarm bells and raise all the red flags!
As a connoisseur of poh tay toes, they look gross.
