Same here, commission based tech. No one breaks their phones in February = plenty of time to plan out my supercharger build and shop FT86speedfactory

Spring rolls around and I'm lucky to get on here even during lunches

Surprisingly though, when you hold the purse strings for their projects, you will find that people frequently can indeed change the laws of physics in the most creative ways.
I don't think there's a single U.S. corporation office WITHOUT someone emailing Scott Adams with ideas (that's how his comic has worked for longer than 6 months, he probably exhausted his own anecdotes well over a decade ago, smart guy putting his email in the margin).

The past few months have been particularly resonant.

In one of my prior positions I was reprimanded several times for NOT breaking the laws of physics and complimented for breaking the laws of physics. Of course everything presented outside the department was hunky-dory.

What is WORK ?

Not sure what that term means.

Lemme check Urban Dictionary...see if they have it listed. Oh they do ! But so many various definitions, none sounding terribly interesting. I'll stay home and think about this for a while longer.
