Yep. I used to say that I feel like I’m living in “Dr. Zhivago”, but without the love triangle.

And here we are.

I have a huge amount of respect for people who run their own business. Huge. They work their asses off, and their paycheck is dependent on their own effort...and not guaranteed.

I recognize the inherent value in real human contact, and a zoom meeting doesn’t replace it. I do a lot of meetings these days, and in some of them (even large ones) I am the only person with a camera on.

You know a lot of people simply are not paying attention in the least. It is my effort to show people I am paying attention. Plus, I am one of those people whose face is completely transparent, so the people I work with use me for that function to convey emotion to vendors...:) They don’t say it aloud of course, but from their comments, it is pretty clear...:)

Eh. I would retire now, but...I just don’t think I am ready yet. I like hearing from people like you who are, and live vicariously through you!

I had to laugh...given what they have been doing for a while now with things like Section 8 housing, and trying to make it impossible for people to live in the suburbs, I don’t doubt I will come home one day, open the door, and be faced by a stern looking, obese illegal immigrant who tells me my quarters are now at the end of the hall in that one room!

That’s a funny interview, and she is a talented actress, but I have to admit... While I once could make Excel dance, I never had any knowledge of the things she knows well: Snapchat, Instagram, Pinterest, etc. I have never asked Siri to do anything. She is a ditz who knows a ton of stuff I don’t.

The video just makes me feel old, period.

I understand the boss's position. He's almost certainly right. She's just a ditz who can't or won't do the work he wants done.

But for my own edification, I'd like to see the results from doing things her way.
