Importance of a Good Project Manager
Let’s talk about the importance of a skilled project manager for project success. Approximately half the world I know is moving. Including my parents. I’m excellent at hard labor.

Unless … Continue reading Importance of a Good Project Manager

“What’s the best condiment?” In my mind I was thinking ketchup. “If you pick ketchup, you’re a fucking chump.” Thank god he wasn’t asking me.

I Can’t Stop The Words
Probably someday someone's going to stop letting me talk to the other people. I'm just sitting here in the car shop waiting room place waiting for Grungy Mechanic-Looking Dude to honk my horn (again, not a euphemism) and unreject me. And suddenly I feel the urge to start saying words. Grungy Mechanic-Looking Dude: Nissan Rogue? … Continue reading I Can’t Stop The Words
Living That Rejected Life
I was rejected yesterday. I'm still struggling with it. There I was, just sitting in the waiting room working on testing schedules, and this grungy mechanic-looking dude walks up and says, "I'm gonna have to give you a rejected sticker." Oh. So this is how dating works now? Dudes reject you before you even ask … Continue reading Living That Rejected Life
