    Morning everyone.

    Happy Friday.

    Went for a walk yesterday during lunch, and now my left foot is killing me. Not sure what I did, or how I did it. But the bottom/let side hurts when I walk and put weight and push off of it. Started hurting yesterday evening already.

    Life most certainly is interesting, it hits us with roller coaster like events with the highest of highs and lowest of lows; sometimes within the same week, day, and even hour. I am very happy to hear that you're doing well in your career I'm very sorry for the loss of your grandmother. You do know that if you ever need to talk you have my number.

    Thanks gents.

    thanks man. I appreciate it. Doing well vs being happy in a career are majorly different things. My feelings haven't changed since we last discussed this at Nick’s wedding. I really dislike my job. Company overall seems good but my boss is a total douche. I am more comfortable than I was months back, but overall happiness in the role is not there. My personal goal was always to make it at least a year, because I don't want to be seen as a habitual job hopper (12 years at prior company, but see under a year at my new one as a red flag), and because I don't want to have to pay back the hiring bonus. I am trying to make the most of my time, and am taking advantage of them paying for the continuing ed/designation cost. I hope to get another under my belt before I start looking elsewhere, maybe even my old company. I know the role I truly want and there is a small chance of that happening but the timeline is extremely uncertain. 7/15 is the ultimate date I am looking to make it to. Until then, just grinding it out.

    Got some work done on the compressor harness. I need to install it into the truck so I can cut the wires to length and terminate them.

    Good morning CT. :wave:

    Messing with the harness as I have clothes in the wash, :washing:

    I thought of a way to make it even cleaner. The harness, not the clothes.
