Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of yet another corrupted corporation. As the world turns, the guiding light that leads these corporations is greed and more greed. Its like these CEOs that run these companies act like they only have one life to live. Discarding all of our children's safety all in the name of everything that is wrong with too much money. They think they are bold and beautiful, but really, they are dumb and dumber. Hopefully justice could be served. Is he the only one that is going to be charged? Scapegoat? Or will others follow? No doubt that it seems like he is guilty, whether he is a scapegoat or not, but he definitely wasnt alone going rogue. He was encouraged by the rotten corporate culture that enveloped Boeing in the last decade or two. Remains to be seen what comes next.

I dumped the office routine 21 years ago. But I also don't work out of my home; I work out of yours.

LOL Yeah, I get the misanthropic part. Im a social butterfly, but sometimes I hate people too. Im a conflicted person that way. More often than not, I like to be around people and socialize. Strangely enough, I get energized with stupid people. I want to get away from them as far as possible, but I use that interaction to fuel my conversations with people I like to be around with. The restaurant business is perfect for my personality. Im always snacking at the restaurant. Food all around me all. the. time. Although when I do grab a french fry here and there, or a piece of bacon, or a slice of pepperoni or cheese or a hot dog, I do it discreetly, away from my staff and clients. (open kitchen) I go in the back to stuff my face and wash my hands immediately after. I noticed on my days off at home, I crave snacks. I cant concentrate. Its like I have ADHD or something. I need to put something in my mouth to taste it. Im addicted... Though at home, I have started to snack on fruits this past year. THAT has spilled over at work. Im snacking on less and less hotdogs and bacon and stuff. I have my wife has forced me to bring fruits to work to snack on those. And so I do. Grapes. Cantaloupe. Oranges, tangerines, clementines. Ive noticed that my belly has gotten less bloated by doing that and it seems like I have lost at least 5-7 lbs in the process as well. I no longer seem to have a gut. I guess its healthier to snack on fruits. Who knew?

Yeah, it's not for everyone. Since my work product is in the cloud, and I'm fairly misanthropic, it works well for me. I'm able to focus albeit with taking periodic breaks.

Not on the road, but on tv..while watching the first episode of season 4 of ‘Goliath’, I saw a Lucid Air in a brief scene being used as an Uber Black-style service car in San Francisco.

EDIT :: Wiki says the 3rd gen were used for the '39 World's Fair. eDIT :: The 2nd "Parade of Progress" unit is the 1st gen silver-top 1936 version. 8 were built. The "Previews of Progress" unit was built in '38, but I now think it was a single, additional unit to the '36s.

Boeings troubles continue.

This is a mere 5 years' difference in age; we'll never see this degree of stylistic change ever again.

After 4+ years working from home full time, I don’t know if I could go back to a commute to an office. I’ve only gone into the office at my current job twice. The drive—about 35 miles each way—was tiring, though I took the scenic way home through the National park and enjoyed that.
