Commenting on their makeup is a sure way to get in trouble.

So my company came up with a job description for my position (like literally personalized for my specific job). Debating whether to mention that I don't actually meet the 'years relevant work experience' requirements lol...

I don't either. I've worked at this company longer. They ask why I'm still at this level and I get to remind them they demoted me when they bought the company I worked for... And have since shunted me around. Whee.
On the flip side, I have a job and I like the people and our mission. Closing on two years on a single income where supposedly it's an employee market... Yeah right. For uninsured overworked underpaid gig workers maybe.

If anyone was curious, the wheels on the BRZ are fine. Each one was 0.5 to 1.75 oz off balance, though. Which is what I was hoping after looking at the wheels in the daylight. There were no obvious stress marks on the inside of the barrels, but I could see where weights were clearly missing.

Oh yeah, I don't meet all of the requirements for my job either. One of these days I'll go back and finish a degree. Honest.

Got a video last night of the puppy and his brother and sister playing in a field. One more week!

A bit nervous about the process of bringing him through security at the airport and then having him on the flight but probably just overthinking it.
