I solved that problem by leaving the company after a year. My little team at my field office (who had...

    Table set up at exam

    Stuff to bring to test

    The most extensive setup I saw at my exam was a dolly with three milk crates on it. Upon arrival, she rotated the milk crates so they served as a bookshelf. I hauled my books in two Ikea-style bags. That was insane (but I have a tiny apartment and it was how I studied, so I was used to it).

    The Running Thread

    I ran in the big snowstorm yesterday... in shorts! The run was nice but my knees were howling when I got inside. Lesson learned.

    The Running Thread

    First race of the year in the books: broke my half marathon PR by ~20 seconds. Completely unexpected - that PR is several years old and I trained really well for that race!

    The Running Thread

    I get at least maintenance mileage outside every winter, usually running a March half to keep my eyes on the prize. No treadmill - I have no gym access.
