I believe it. I live in an area with lots of 3 car garages and it is shocking how many people have to park in their driveway. There's one house that charges in the driveway with the cord running under the garage door. Who needs a 3 car garage full of stuff?!?

Pickled asparagus.

I've left several jobs for greener pastures. In all cases, I learned a bit more about what I like and don't about tech and non-tech (and big biz vs small biz, etc.). I went from tech to aerospace manufacturing, back to tech, to utilities, back to tech and then started my own company. I was shocked at how far behind some companies are from a tech perspective. I was pleasantly surprised at the slower pace. I thought the best talent was swooped up by tech (probably because they pay so much more). In the end, having more control, even if I'm paid a lot less, is preferred.

I use different ones for different things. Perplexity answers my tech questions best (what is the dax formula for ___). Gemini is good if I'm making something that needs more casual language or some help brainstorming. Copilot is good for corporate jargon. It plays nice with other MS tools, so if I need to connect it to a PowerAutomate or Power app, I can do that. I used ChatGPT to make a lifetime movie plot generator with great success.

It's probably not playing nicely with your operating system. I don't have those kinds of issues - all the basics work in the latest Windows. 🤷

I like Teams. A huge chunk of it is that it is rolled into an overall subscription that includes a bunch of other stuff I need - and is WAY less expensive than piecing alternative apps together. But I also use it to create a central workspace for myself by embedding things like, dashboards, apps/automations, and lists (which can subsquently be attached to automationsnand dashboards). More recently I've attached it it Agents to the library of content to help speed up my work. The fact that the share and leave buttons in a meeting are right next to each other and I regularly leave meetings instead of sharing is actually a bonus. I don't think any of us really want to be on that call.

They should. Or at bare minimum give the employees enough visibility into the company performance that employees can make good informed decisions (like the company has lost money 3 months in a row and the sales pipe is light - employees can at least determine if they need to start looking).

I think all businesses should be prepared for this, which is totally legal in the US AND sometimes just has to happen for the employee (family emergencies, health issues, sudden interest in not working there anymore). Any business that can't handle this is not well run.

When is was a kid, my mom took me to Nordstrom and the ladies at the makeup counter told me what to buy and showed me how to apply it. I've done it a couple of times as an adult with success. I think other places, like Ulta, might do it too (but I'm a creature of habit).

As for the blush - I find a color that mimics what I look like after exercising. Then apply the blush to those areas - but in smaller quantities. I feel like it looks better on me than the whole contouring thing. Also, I test anything before I wear it out (like play around before I wash my face at bedtime).

I call it the "witchcraft par of my health journey."

I have had absolutely terrible luck with PCPs believing my symptoms or looking at them holistically - even just to gat a referral to the right specialist. In this moment AI has been better at pointing me in the right direction than my previous PCPs. 🤷

Nap.
