53º, overcast, and (allegedly) rain coming into the area. Other than that, a high of 54º is projected for today.

Re: Check-In 133: Harshad Happy Untritrium Craig Jones

Re: Check-In 133: Harshad Happy Untritrium Craig Jones

The company doesn't like people having a balance of PTO as it's a liability. I was able to transfer some to my comp time bucket that week, and then mo...

Looking at the 5 Keels of the Battleship

Re: Check-In 133: Harshad Happy Untritrium Craig Jones

Yesterday ended on a fairly good note at work. My manager had reached out to me last week to discuss how I wanted to handle the 48 hours of PTO I had on account since my anniversary is coming up. The company doesn't like people having a balance of PTO as it's a liability. I was able to transfer some...
