5:50am is a totally normal time to be at work, right?
Asking for a friend…
Perfectly normal. I am typically a bit later, as I get up at 5:00. It's amazing how much you can do when nobody else is there yet, no phone calls...

Beans, Bluegrass, Battlestar Galactica.
Alliteration.🤪
It is commonly used in business to help us remember a brand. Krispy Kreme, PayPal, TikTok, Coca-Cola, etc.

I’ve followed up on too many recommendations from this thread to mention but here’s a recent few starting with the IKEA chair (love it). I present a book for those of a certain age, “How To Be Idle”. It was a gift but I’m too lazy to read it.

Someone mentioned Roy Clark, I assume they mean the Flamenco guitarist? Okay, Cuban.

@turtlerod we go down to the Yucatan most winters. One time it was in February and the temperature was so cold that locals were building fires outside to huddle around. all of the staff in the resort were wearing jackets. We were laughing because it was about 70 degrees or so and sunny.
In Puerto Rico, if it gets below mid-70s people pull out down jackets. The bane of living on an island with a constant 82degF temperature. Well, the bane of jacket makers :-D

Yes. I can confirm using the Sys to attenuate the L channel to compensate for my hearing imbalance works amazingly well.

I just shift my seating position with speakers.

You have the right guy but he was much more known for country and blue grass. Check out the YouTube video of him and Glen Campbell playing “ghost riders in the sky”. He could play banjo, guitar and fiddle with the best of them.

I place varying amounts of cotton balls in one ear as needed. Use of a Sys is far more high tech.

I used to love getting in early, but in my end of high tech those that put in 5:30 AM to 3:30 PM w/ another hour at night was considered lacking vs the 9:45-6:15 crew. But I was more productive early and got to hang out/Coach my kids, but there is a bias in favor of those that leave late.
