Always loved the idea of working from home, computers, looking out windows while you negotiate… It used to be that way. Now I just miss people, having interruptions, being able to put out fires. Don’t get me wrong, I love saving 120 miles a day and two hours in the truck, great for the pocket book, not enough living.

And now, Mississippi says it it required instead of recommended. The few who don’t social distance probably won’t be motivated by threats. The few I see are hard working people, who don’t read signs, don’t understand that how the way they work and interact Is not what the Governors are trying to say.
The mechanic who walks into the auto parts store, across the X on the floor to reach past the sign to hand a starter to the clerk, is not a bad person… He needs a better teacher, better reminders, to see and believe what the rest of us are doing. He needs to be entertained, not overwhelmed with news and official statements and demanding customers who just need their car repaired, today!
We need jingles and hollywood and heroes. Slogans and Flo’s ads from Progressive, please.
Please, there are days I am bored to tears, obsess over email, try not to argue, avoid the news and binge the news on Apple, Bloomburg, FT.com, and CNN.
Great time to catch up on online training and thawing some dinner!
