1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

fair enough

 

It's too early for any of that now though, coffee hasn't hit.

 

I forget what Time zones people are in

 

Almost 11 there huh? Day is just barely started here

 

10

I've had a run, coffee, Shit, V8, bs work meetings already in roughly that order.

 

Fun, I'm not about to run haha but the rest sounds about right.

 

I'm sitting in the parking lot at work, got here on time unfortunately. I can go in and get coffee but also if I go in I have to work. Hmmm.

 

I had a coworker (the bright and sunny moron type) comment on me taking my time to come into the office the other day, not late mind you. It took every ounce of my self control and all of the coffee to avoid snapping at him.

 

Same dude you mentioned a few weeks back?

 

Probably, he's the only one I work with that really gets on my nerves. The others do some pretty stupid things occasionally but at least they act like real human beings.

 

Schedule is pretty basic; dude wakes up every morning at 645-745am, feed him, change him, etc.

We lucked out cause he's been teething, and still sleeps 6-7 hrs each night.

Feed dogs, feed myself, then half entertain the little dude while doing some house chores.

After that's done, then its spread across tummy time, sensory videos, and he'll usually nap around that time. That's when I do what needs to be done in preparation for the day (whether for me in the garage or to leave).

He wakes up, feed him, change him, etc and run the errands I need to.

Back home, read to him, tummy time, practice crawling, etc.

Just always involving some sort of different play with him as he's been hitting his milestones a good month or two earlier than expected.

Once the wife is home, I take my breather and still watch him as needed but she'll usually take over and I can do garage shit, go pick up steel, etc.

I never asked, you got kids?

 

Sounds like old me lol minus side businesses.

Was working consistently over +60 hours a week, as I was a finance director as well.

Meeting my wife made me want to spend less time from her, and value time with family or myself.

What side business do you run? That must be exhausting but it seems like you got a handle on it, maybe a ton of people you trust too.

I've got a great PC for gaming but damn you're the second Steam Deck user here and I'm just gonna have to buy one soon

The strong woman remark is no joke, but us as spouses have our part to play as well so don't sell yourself short

 

Think we were talking about dumbass co workers and you mentioned him

 

I'm not a "sit in the car to decompress" person and don't get it... my Fiancee is, but I park and get out lol

Not yet, I'm hoping my Fiancees career surpasses mine so I can be a SAHD eventually... but I'm still on the grind for now.

trying to cut back to under 50hrs/week always lol

I'm not decompressing, I'm mentally preparing for a constant barrage of idiocy for 9hrs and 15mins and trying not to think of just how futile my efforts in work and life are. If anything I'm compressing more and more in an attempt to withstand another day.

 

Can confirm with @treyus30

 

"compressing"

accurate lol
