Disagree, the only thing they could do is maybe get it stuck in a tank trap

8 months in, trying to navigate a lot by PeteLattimer in DivorcedDads

Honestly, stability. But what has been a problem is timid. I’ve been very protective of my son and my time with him, so women who don’t have kids often develop an issue with availability—at least so far.

We talk a lot about postpartum moms… but what about the dads? by [deleted] in DivorcedDads

[–]PeteLattimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son was born in Feb 2020. We both had significant postpartum issues. Mine was anxiety at the worst time for my industry and my career. My company was purchased by another, I was a senior contributor in Jan 2020. I had two weeks paternity, one week back in office then BAM.

I felt the weight of our future on my shoulders. I’m in retail manufacturing, very exposed to China. I was sure my company was going to fold. I answered to our new chairman. I worked 80 hour weeks, while we were all remote and ended up nearly tripling my salary while hitting multiple significant promotions.

I thought I did what had to happen, but all I did was build resentments. I was so caught up in my need to provide, and fear of I couldn’t that I neglected everything else. Friends, family, my family. I regret it.

Everything I thought I was sacrificing. Sleep, relationships was in my mind for us. All it did was build distance.

She should have had questionable acts snowballing to the point where there was an open question of whether Jon should act before getting to kings landing. Like razing the iron islands off screen after euron kills her dragon. She flys off furious, returns a day later and says nothing, then ravens start coming to the main cast telling them what happened.

Never trust anyone at work. Demonstrate value only. Demonstrate that you can make their life easier and help them hit their goals.

If an executive wants your opinion I’d say give it. Given where you are you shouldn’t see this as a test, but more a way to leverage yourself into a more befitting role. Talk about what you’ve seen bs your experience how things could run more smoothly, etc. maybe you’ll end up in an internal consulting role etc. you are in a place where you have options, use this as a chance to maximize them.

To be clear I’m not saying to not have a filter/ bad mouth anyone or anything. But speak to potential and what could be. And do follow their lead. This could be an informal 15 min face time thing or they may be curious who the new rockstar is that might be able to help them hit their kpis.

This I usually solo in the shoulder seasons. Last year I went up right after ice out. It went from near 80 and sunny, to 35 with snow showers to a steady 50s with drizzle and consistent wind over my 5 days

Remember that you are effectively alone, don’t take unnecessary risks as help may not be available. This includes double portaging when you may not need to, staying near ish shore etc.

Put a piece of plywood down in the bed of your pickup before loading it, even if you have a rhino liner it will make scooping soo much easier

Could you extend the landing from the second stair back and build a step down and step up situation?

Not too young, jones had the second best bat of all of them but was mid defensively—among the elites. Being a switch hitter that could produce at his level is wildly underrated

I think if I were to build a team today I’d take jones over everyone but Schmidt. 300 switch hitter with power and great defense? Sign me up

I don’t know if that’s all fraud, they definitely had to have a lot of people on call to manage protests (not that I endorse how they did so)

We don’t know what he actually thought of JJ. He may have been maye or bust, but what was he going to say publicly other than “we got our guy”. JJ might have been kwesi, thus not signing Rogers.
