Tipping discourse has once again hit LinkedIn. And for those who never served tables: you tip a minimum of 20% or you don't go out.
So the citation discourse is actually folding towel discourse.
I have also made progress on the Pile of Impossibilities (a pile of papers, folders, files, etc that need a home but also need to be available and also take time to sort through).
Somtimes I think about the post where the guy was like: I wanted to help my wife and fold the towels. She tried to show me how to fold towels and I told her there wasn't a right way to fold towels. She walked away and I realized my folded towels didn't fit in the closet.
One of my goals for today is to work through one of the Piles. So I have spent a few hours doing filing, creating and printing labels, filling filing folders, and next I will place the newly labeled file folders into a filing drawer (my brain hates me)
I had dinner with a friend, I recommend y'all find some time with friends soon. That's how we'll make it through: community
my favorite saying to remember this is:
"you could be the juiciest peach and some people just don't like peaches."
(One of the several dozen unfair things about academic interviews, or probably any interview for people who began work after 2008, is the idea you should have a intentional linear story of jobs you chose, rather than making the best from whatever diverse gigs you got.)
