I wanna see it!

YES.  I'm sure there will be a mini-review (or just spluttering about how much I liked/disliked it later tonight or tomorrow morning)!

 

[JayKay PE]

I've just found out that there is going to be like two other people in the office tomorrow.  But I don't know how the whole "work remotely"-thing works since I'm not a high enough level to ask?  Ugguidgvnjhodklpbvlf/.  Just want to type at home instead of in office with pants.

Ask a co-worker about how to ask mgt about telework.

 

[leggo PE]

Pretty sure my office doesn't offer the work from home option. We don't have laptops (well, the office has, like, one total). And I doubt it runs the CAD programs we'd need.

Now that I think about it, I think I have heard mention of a very slow VPN network, but I've never seen it in action.

 

[JayKay PE]

Yeah, I think I could work from home if I asked, but I am also of the mindset that I know I won't really work?  I might just work late tonight and then leave early tomorrow at around noon.  Go do some last minute grocery shopping.  I need to find hazelnuts.  Which is surprisingly hard to find?

 

[vee043324]

whole foods for hazelnuts? or maybe an international grocery store/shop?

 

[vee043324]

and yes you def won't really work if you work from home but you'll have a great day and that's worth it 

 

[JayKay PE]

Yeah, I think I'm going to try costco tonight to see if they have it (mostly because I know they have almonds/slivered almonds, which is half my list).  If I don't see hazelnuts, I might need to check out a WF *shudders* but I know they'll probably also have almond paste.  Extremely expensive, but I know they'll prob have it.

I need to get bananas, bagels, and bacon.

Are they really bagels if they're not from NY? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[leggo PE]

They're the closest thing I can find... And they're damned expensive.

 

[JayKay PE]

That sounds about right.  You need to get a NY-friend.  I still send my family down in Arkansas "car packages" of bagels every couple of months or when I travel down.  I feel like I've inflected hell on people by having delicious, baked/boiled that day, bagels inside an airplane.  And I wasn't sharing.

Man, this week is dragging...

 

[Ble_PE]

I'm so ready for a beer.

 

[JayKay PE]

Ugggggh, it's not even 3pm yet.  This is torture!

Sounds like a traditional thanksgiving feast if I've ever heard one.

topps :bananalama:

 

[RBHeadge PE]

Yes, but they have to be from elsewhere along the northeast corridor

 

[RBHeadge PE]

It's 3:09 here

 

[JayKay PE]

It's 3:09 here

Oh god, this means my time is lagging and dragging even slower than usual.  I'll prob have the time snap back while I'm grocery shopping, a strange time-hole where you think you've only been there for 15-minutes...then you go outside and it's 2-hours later.

 

[Ble_PE]

I don't think I'll hang around too much longer today...
