I’ve had my Mum’s vegetable soup since I moved out of home permanently at age 22. 28 years ago.
Today I finally made it.
Couldn’t fit in the pumpkin and I know I won’t get any rice in at the end but it’s ok. Added some minced garlic but stuck to the recipe otherwise.
Not exciting but warm and familiar and chunky.
Melbourne has had its face washed, and the sunshine is glorious!
I got the dirt on my new client.
Very high maintenance and will argue down to the hour for project work.
Everyone I mentioned it to yesterday gave me this look and laughed lol. And word travelled really quickly around the office.

I swear by Grindstone for time tracking. I’ve been using it for many years.
New corporate buzzword I absolutely despise - Journey
It’s not a fucking journey. It’s a process.
Stop trying to make boring shit appeal interesting. It’s boring, but that’s a how it is. Changing the label doesn’t make it exciting.
I’d put that on the backburner but to shy away from jargon like that is a paradigm shift.
We could loop in and should probably table it. It is low hanging fruit but still requires a deep dive.

I am grateful I can practise heartfulness.
It’s really important for me to engage with others at an emotional level. Too much mind interferes with the flow of feelings, so I try not to think while I’m at work.
“We are mapping out the customer experience journey” is such a dramatic way to describe designing a form …

A manager might say your statement is reason to enter a conversation.
Conversation, my aching foot! That’s corporate speak for performance management.
You ever feel like you made a wrong turn somewhere, but now you’ve started on a career pathway, have a stupid fuck off hecs debt, can’t afford therapy, and feel like it’s too late to go back? That you’re struggling with your job, don’t have any real reference point as to whether it’s normal, and just kinda wish you had another option?
Today was not a good day.
