First rainstorm of the season and it's killer. Our autosampler got washed away and is now somewhere in our detention basin. I spent 10 minutes trying to fish the rest of our equipment out of the channel and came back to the office completely soaked and had to change clothes. I can't imagine how bad the mud flows are in the recent burn areas in Santa Barbara.

Drone claw to the rescue?

Wait, don't you have interns for that? :dunno:

Unfortunately, I really actually have to work today.  At least I get to wear my slippers all day.

Possible snow this afternoon, and probable tomorrow morning.  Sounds like a work from home in my underwear kind of day!

We got about an inch of snow over a layer of ice last Friday/Saturday.  I barely noticed because I was comatose from the flu.  I noticed that it was snowing again yesterday, checked the forecast, and it said we were supposed to get about 1 inch.  I went to take the trash out this morning, and we got at least 4 more inches last night.  I sure am glad I was already off for being sick today.  The roads were untouched as far as I could tell this morning.

And how's that different than when you're working in the office??? :dunno:

At the office, I'm a suit and tie man.  Birthday suit.

 

[kevo_55]

^^ But bow tie or neck tie?

 

[Supe]

Bolo.

 

[envirotex]

Oh dear.  A really unfortunate visual with a bolo tie and a pocket protector just popped into my head.

 

[Supe]

Where the heck is the pocket protector?

 

[Supe]

Was supposed to start snowing at 8PM last night... then 4am this morning... 

Drove to work with nothing but light rain.  I'll be amazed if it snows at all at this point.

^Very similar here, but we got an email this morning telling us to work from home unless it's absolutely necessary to go into the office, so I'm sitting here in the house drinking my coffee with my work laptop. It hasn't even started raining yet...

 

[Supe]

Started coming down pretty heavy, looking shitty out now.  Will let my boss pass final judgement.

Adhesive.
