What aches and pains? Maybe I’m just lucky.

Definitely lucky - over 50 and no aches and pains is fairly unusual (non scientific study amongst my friend group)

Happy New Year Oldies!

Haha! Hoping mine stay the same as well!
Happy New Year!

Oh yeah but I always use it as a mentor situation where some of the youth rubs off lol

The recruiter will let me know if any remote roles come up but in the mean time, does anyone have any remote Amazon roles that they’d refer me to?

Yesterday my younger brother called me looking for good hidden swimming spots in the mountains. He was up there with a bunch of friends and their original plans had fallen apart hard. And I go much more often than he does.

I told him I had map pins that are EXACTLY what you need for these hard to find places. I can send them in 10 mins when I get home.

Reply? Forget it, I'm all set.

Yep, 10 mins is too long. Here I was expecting "Wow! That's fantastic!" How silly of me.
