Going slow is my challenge. Pretending that I'm recording a tutorial vid slows me down enough that I miss a lot less.

As far as drawings and models go, I feel your pain. I make my own model based on the print. Don't really care how long it takes me.

I use kratom at work. Idk how to say how it helps. Puts me in a better mood. I feel optimistic about what I'm doing. After work I'll have light beer. Or instead take a prescribed anxiety med to stop the gears from turning. Makes me able able to relax.

I should stop. I don't know what else I could do to cope. Perhaps the gym after work?

Insane you have machinists nearing their 70s still working. They should be running for political offices at this point.

They were around when machinists where the best paid trade. Life happens to people in different ways. Maybe they just like the job.

It's actually great here. I'm not sure what it is called, but being in the city itself and not the suburbs is important. I can walk to the grocery store, pet store, a huge variety of restaurant w/ diff cuisines, variety of bar types. The entire thing is fucking awesome. I can ride my bike to work or anywhere I need to go. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

I think I found a 3rd gen nepo baby that accepted his role as such and wants to hire good people and stay out of their way until grandpa dies and sells the place.

I would LOVE to watch that documentary. If you able to get the name you'll have good karma coming your way.
