I have a very very good, close to perfect, accent in 3 languages (English, French, German) that I speak (in addition to my mother tongue, Vietnamese). I can say random things in a 4th language, Chinese (that I don’t actually speak) in a very good accent as well lol

I have three kidneys! 🥳

I’m right handed and I don’t switch my eating knife to my right hand while eating or cutting a steak; I must cut it with left hand; however… for chopping and any other purposes…. I use right hand.

Never tried it but probably right handed too…. Guess I could do with left but may not be accurate

I feel inadequate and unsure of how or if to acknowledge the US/Buffalo racist murders and terrorism of this weekend in the workplace. I don’t want to do disservice or unintentionally further traumatize anyone. I know my Black colleagues are traumatized. I am horrified. And yet we just have our meetings and I guess compartmentalize it away.
