Good morning, Skybirds
I forgot to close my windows before bed last night, and now I really don't want to leave these nice warm blankets ๐ฅถ

May your website work
Goodnight, Skybirds
May you get good advice
I may start a new series on social media, titled "What absolutely unhinged recommendation did Glassdoor send me today?"
Keeping in mind that my background is business and scientific research.

It's a beautiful day - time to look for a job and brush up on my French
Goodnight, Skybirds
May you know what you want to say
Good morning, Skybirds
Woke up at 7:56 and checked my phone, to discover that my TV is being delivered between 8-11.
I am now fully awake and wearing pants, so let the chips fall where they may
Goodnight, Skybirds
May you think in many languages
Is anyone else absolutely sent into orbit by this kind of meaningless nonsense, or is it just me?
Back in 1996, when I was working the phones taking insurance claims, we were taught to calm people down with phrases like "I understand how frustrating this is"
I notice that companies are still using this in emails, before their explanation of why they're about to be absolutely useless.

We're heading into that half of the year when the sun gets up far too early ๐ฅฑ

May you stay on your horse
Me this morning: Woohoo, I managed to maintain the correct rhythm for posting the trot* for a really long time today! ๐
Me tonight: Ow
*Basically, squats while balancing on a horse
Mr. Darion has a "learn to post on the trot, or die trying" approach to training his riders
It's like sitting on a very friendly jackhammer ๐๐
Good morning, Skybirds
I woke up way earlier than I needed to, and spent the last two hours reading until my eyes got heavy, putting the book down, and immediately being wide awake ๐คฌ
Goodnight, Skybirds
May your technology be kind
But also maybe read up on the environmental impacts, and don't use it for things you could do yourself with five seconds of thought.

I'm almost sad that I never started using ChatGPT, since it would have given me great pleasure to STOP using it after their recent bs.
BTW, if you do use AI, there are companies that don't support using it to murder actual humans.

Goodnight, Skybirds
May your typos be benign
TIL that you have to be really careful when typing "Biotech" in professional emails, because accidentally leaving out the e would be very very bad ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Good morning, Threadsters
More of the same today
Goodnight, Skybirds
May your appointments be brief
Good morning, Skybirds
I have to get out of bed early like a normal human, and I don't like it at all
Goodnight, Skybirds
May your job options be plentiful
Good morning, Skybirds
Another day of trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up.
Wish me luck.
Goodnight, Skybirds
May your Mondays be short
Good morning, Skybirds
The thing I thought I had to do today is actually scheduled for tomorrow.
So... I guess I'll spend the day applying for jobs
Goodnight, Skybirds
May your projects be fascinating
Good morning, Threadsters
Lots to do today. Not really interested in doing any of it.
