Micro
Out of office is set and I’m done with work for 2024!
I’ve warned my teams not to give me any urgent problems on my last working day of the year. Wearing the badge to emphasise my response.
Happily finished as chair of the body corporate. Lawyer who thinks they know everything will discover there’s a whole lot of things I dealt with which are now their problem. I intend to spend the next month ignoring every email from the retired engineer on the committee who really needs a hobby.
Only 17 days into summer and the roads are already not coping with heavy downpours given a wetter than normal spring. Going to be an interesting summer I think, with plenty of localised flooding.
I’m finishing at 11 and having the afternoon off in lieu of working Saturday. I have a long lunch planned with a friend and do not want to be delayed. I’ll be keeping my morning meetings short by using one of two options: “stick a pin in it until next year” or “no”.
I might actually look at the suggested Threads accounts appearing on my insta feed if most weren’t either a story about someone in the wrong seat on a plane or how bad an Airbnb was. Sometimes it’s the person who has confused it for LinkedIn and is busy tooting their own horn as my Nan used to say.
📺 The latest episode of Star Trek: Lower Decks (S05E09) was possibly the best one across all five seasons. How has this show been cancelled when it just gets better with every season. 🖖🏻
I feel very seen.
📽️ Starting the Christmas movie viewing with How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000).
Explained to the cat it’s still an apparent temperature of 37°c outside so no, we won’t be having balcony time today.
She’s spent the last 10 minutes walking back and forth across me while I’m trying to read. Presumably in protest.
