    So part of my job is being pushed off on two other employees and today they post two openings to fill the other parts.

    The GM asked to speak to me in private, everyone including myself is thinking he’s going to thank me for everything I’ve done over the years. No, this f**knut talks **** and then tells me I should give everyone my cell number so I can answer questions for my replacements after I leave. I kept my composure and just laughed and walked away. What a d*ckhole.

    Congrats guys...I have never chosen to seek out my birth parents or potential family. Not that I am against meeting any of them, just never felt the need or desire to look for them.....

    I actually purchased my folks an anniversary card that effectively said "You can't blame me. I was your choice!" Thought it quite fitting...

    I might be one of the only people in the country who prefers the spring forward day to the fall back day. I get to work an hour less tonight.

    If we're going to keep doing daylight savings we should at least turn the clocks back on a Monday morning.

    Not, you don't really want everyone who forgot showing up to work an hour early, do you? It's Sunday morning to soften the impact. I once used daylight savings to get someone in a Blue county to sell me beer even though it was technically Sunday, I convinced them that it was still Saturday because of fall back, but I think that's why they change the time at 2:00 AM Sunday to keep the shenanigans down. If your at a bar that closes at 2:00 AM, I guess you get an extra long last call.

    Now I don't start me morning smoke in the dark.

    Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

    Had to buy a new suit for an upcoming funeral. This is the first time I've ever spent $100 on a pair of pants. Crazy.

    You're right. But then, there's the other 39 daily cigar emails.

    about dogs, from this article:
    "https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/hide-and-seek/202006/what-is-ataraxia"

    "The first cynic appears to have been the Athenian philosopher Antisthenes (d. 365 BCE), who had been an ardent disciple of Socrates. Then came Diogenes (d. 323 BCE), the paradigm of the cynic, who took the simple life of Socrates to such an extreme that Plato called him "a Socrates gone mad."

    Diogenes held that human beings had much to learn from the simplicity and artlessness of dogs, which, unlike human beings, had not "complicated every simple gift of the gods." In fact, the term "cynic" derives from the Greek kynikos, which is the adjective of kyon, or "dog."

    Diogenes placed reason and nature firmly above custom and convention, which he held to be incompatible with happiness. Rather than pursuing wealth, renown, and other worthless things, people should have the courage to live like animals or gods, partaking in life"s pleasures without bond or fear.

    The stories surrounding Diogenes, though embellished, or because embellished, help to convey his spirit. Diogenes wore a simple cloak which he doubled up in winter, begged for food, and sheltered in a tub. He made it his mission to challenge custom and convention, which he called the "false coins morality". Upon being challenged for masturbating in the marketplace, he mused, "If only it were so easy to soothe hunger by rubbing an empty belly." He used to stroll about in broad daylight brandishing a lit lamp. When people gathered around him, as they inevitably did, he would say, "I am just looking for a human being."

    His fame spread far beyond Athens. One day, Alexander the Great came to meet him. When Alexander asked whether he could do anything for him, he replied, "Yes, stand out of my sunlight."
