Never had my office lunch stolen: Probably because I never eat
I currently have one of the funniest things in my office. I have a refrigerator. Many of you probably do not find that funny and may even desire one. I didn’t ask for it. Some assumed because I am an executive that I would want a spare fridge […]
There’s 166 days left: Where do we go from here?
I don’t know about you, but this year has just gone by too quickly. I still very clearly remember the 2018 lettering exploding in bright colors on New Year’s eve. Each day since then has been a whirlwind. Each month has passed by without me being able to […]
