Had more or less this exact conversation with the manager during an interview for a promotion I really wanted years ago.

I did not get it.

I wish you the best of luck maintaining that pristine focus when you're doing 5x the mental calculations for hours on end.

There are far more important things than feeling bored when you're transporting irreplaceable human beings.

Fine for short trips, less fun on hours+ long drives. It's nice having options!

But now my round freezer is wasting space in my square room...

Welp, time for a new house I guess.

Okay sure maybe yeah, but you gotta admit, it was cool.

 

Two episodes to go. I'm gutted this is going to be the end, just as the show truly found its stride and grew the beard. Feels a lot like the end of Enterprise. Every season has been better than the last, and the earlier episodes were pretty good. I recently started rewatching S1 after getting an IRL friend into it and he's absolutely loving it. DISCO gave us something unique and different, and if you ask me, Trek is a big enough tent to try new things sometimes, even if they don't always work out the way they hoped.

If Michelle Paradise ever reads this - you've done incredible work and I'm sorry so many of the fans are haters. Looking forward to what comes next.

You should watch this week's Ready Room.

It is a real place you could explore!

That's sad. I don't mind cooking, but after a typical work day, I often don't have enough mental energy leftover to cook for myself either though. If I didn't have a wife who loved me, I'd probably end up a lot like your friend. We try to save eating out for special occasions or when we're both pooped and there's no leftovers at least. But I can totally understand how that can happen to a person.
