Diogenes Jan 2021 4:32pm, 19 Jan 2021 56,757 posts	0 Diogenes When I make myself a coffee, the first thing I do after picking it up is take a sip as I walk away with it. However, at work I have to wear a mask when I go into the kitchen to make it. I haven't yet filtered my coffee through my mask but it's been close a few times.

The Great Raemondo Jan 2021 5:03pm, 19 Jan 2021 7,114 posts	0 The Great Raemondo I've been promoted from mute enforcer to slide wrangler for a big meeting with important stakeholder type people next week because the guy who was supposed to be slide wrangling has turned out to be a bit useless with technology. I already felt like I could barely find the mental energy for the original role, the new one will be more demanding and higher visibility if I cock up.
