This is an archive of daily observations written by my friend Tom Bridwell. I am not the author, merely a facilitator for Tom, who lives at the edge of the grid. He notices a lot of things and these are his posts, written from the vantage of a ridge top in the hills of Southern Ohio.

Moving On
Charlotte is unhappy with me, and I've worked with too many female bosses to think that can end well. If I stayed we'd end up sparring and I don't feel like sparring anymore. Besides, she's correct, I'm a terrible employee. Not quite as bad as Joel, but a close second; I never told my employer, at the first staff meeting, that they couldn't find their way out of a wet shoe. Joel set the bench mark. I don't even attempt to fail unless the standards are pretty high. Otherwise it's easier to just not say anything. Say your significant other said something about something that was going on in your life, looked them in the eye, first time in weeks, and she said she thought you were getting weak. Just what you want you hear; what you are reduced to is a gridlock. Blackbirds singing in the dead of night.
