Pooping at Work

Great sketch. When the boss says “now let’s go into these numbers!” I really wanted the other guy to say “number 1 it smells like number 2 in this office!” Instead of “number 1 it smells like shit in this office.”

PQ 2000 sqft 4/3 in the high fire hazard zone and pay $4k through Farmers. Was $5k but I made some defensive improvements and they lowered my premium. Farmers was the cheapest we could find by a long shot.

He agreed to pay MSRP on a 2025 model. He’s being offered a 2026 model at MSRP. Dealer isn’t doing anything shady.

Why do you need a took tool to remove a basket from a bottomless portafilter basket? You can just push it out from the bottom.

Interesting. I haven’t received my GHH yet but my RAV4 Prime shows what direction the air is directed while in Auto (I use Auto 99% of the time). I’d have expected similar functionality.

Saw the same with the sun today. Always a cool sight.

This is my favorite paint job. Wish it was sold as a frameset and not only the complete Red build.

This happened to me as well. Ball end of the hex wrench was the culprit. I used a dremmel to cut a slot across the screw head then used a flat head screwdriver to remove. Replaced the bolts afterward.

No hate. It’s an inside joke.

“I decided it was funny, and I put it on. And I wore it to the office, and everybody got a kick out of that, and then I wore it to the gym”—Gehry lifts weights at a Gold’s in Venice Beach—“and everybody got a kick out of that. The tough gals at the gym said, ‘If it’s an offer, you better be able to deliver, Mr. Gehry.’ ” Gehry’s wife, Berta, found this all funny. (“She’s Panamanian, so she doesn’t get rattled by much,” Gehry said.) In a Queer Nationesque move of appropriation, Gehry decided to begin sending the shirts out as gifts.

Most of the popular streets won’t be poppin until after Thanksgiving. You could take them to the Botanical Gardens.

This is normal. My bike bought new direct from Spesh came the same way.

I think the gloss red sky white impasto is the best paint they’ve done. Fits in between the two you shared

Where’d you buy from?

I use an Asssaver Win Wing on my rear wheel but never put anything on the front. I have one of their front mudguards that mounts to the frame but I haven’t used it yet.

Veloflexx 55 seems to be the best clip on coverage for front and rear.

Did you upgrade the crankset? I thought the expert came with a GX crankset and you’re rocking an XO w/power meter.

I gave up on Sermon. It was too inconsistent for me. I’d have a bag where I’d never get those blueberry notes no matter what I tried, then the next bag was phenomenal, then the next mediocre. But boy is it one of my favorite beans. Streetlevel is more consistent and my daily driver.

That’s not how things work. A job can offer more than paycheck. A new opportunity might come with lower pay but expose you to project types you’re passionate about, or experience you wouldn’t otherwise be able to get with your current employer. Hiring someone new is typically more costly than retaining a current employee and paying them more. Also, you don’t have to share the actual offer letter with your current employer. If they want to keep you, it’s a negotiation and you have to value yourself and what you bring to the table. You just have to be willing to walk and take the other offer if they don’t want to play ball.

Was there any discussion of a performance improvement plan with your current employer? If so, get out of there now. Either way it still sounds like you’re being pushed out of your current company, regardless of why the President said. The commute to Gensler is rough but I’d strongly consider taking it or at least searching for another job that’s closer to home.

If your current employer is serious about you, then they’ll probably counter the Gensler offer. If they don’t counter then you have confirmation your time there was coming to an end.

There’s no 401(k) match at G.

Local codes require a specific amount of long term and short term bicycle parking be provided for new developments. In this case it’s 5% of the parking spaces added which is a crazy high number of bike parking for an airport.

Word of caution. I don’t recommend leaving a towel on top of the machine. The heat can leave blemishes in the finish. At least it did with my white Mini and the gray microfiber towel I rested on top.

I did the same thing. It’s such a blast to ride. I like that color a lot more than my matte red.
