May dad is 1 week sick with COVID19.  After showing big improvements, his fever came back strong last night.  He’s doing fine but COVID19 is tricky... it tricks you in thinking that you are better but really you are not.

Damn, good luck, man. Tell him a bunch of people he doesn't know are pulling for him.

The owner of our company, the CRO, and I met yesterday.  We are all within a couple years of being classified as boomers (which is only relevant to the previous convo about ideals on the workplace and generations). We were all pretty resistant to the notion of remote workers and the whole WFH notion prior to this.

We are very seriously considering sub-letting 2 of our 3 suites and shifting to a full work wherever/whenever you are productive model.  In a previous post I said we were a "bill 6 hours when you can" but the caveat I left out was we had the notion of "core hours" when everyone was expected to be online.  Even that's on the table now.

The workplace in 2021 is going to be radically different.

 

 

On a personal note I hate it.  I'm ADD enough that being at home is so full of distractions and so devoid of accountability that I struggle to do good work on a daily basis,I blame equally Igo, Reddit, and random household chores.

Im going to need to find some adderall.

The President of my company is a boomer and is going to retire soon.  His son is a Millennial and will be taking over once that happens.  I felt like his son was going to make some changes to our work schedule once he took over, but now I think its a guarantee and he won't get push back from his dad.  Now he can say "remember in 2020 when..."  Specifically I think he's going to let us work from home on Friday's.  

I'm okay with companies experimenting with different business models.  Different industries and different groups of people have different needs, so its time to move away from the cookie cutter model of doing business.  Part of my job requires helping people to design their work space.  Its funny how many times people want an "open office" and then in practice realize all of the drawbacks, and ask us to come back and put in individual offices and conference rooms.  There was one construction management company I was researching that came up with the concept of no assigned seating.  Just tons of work spaces and you kind of "get in where you fit in" each day.  I wonder how that is working out for them.  In my office we'd all end up sitting in the same space everyday anyways.  We don't have "assigned seats" in our conference room for our weekly meetings, but everybody sits in the same chairs they always do every week.

The U.S. and the rest of the world will have to break their addiction to cheap poo for that to happen. Good luck with that. I could see this kicking off a major wave of getting India and other places in SE Asia outside of China ramped up to take a bite out of some of China's manufacturing monopoly.

We should move our goods production to South and Central America’s.  It will destroy cartels and will have a huge positive impact on people lives.

      Emanuel McNeil Warren + Jacob Rodriguez

      I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.

      Panthers WR Xavier Legette named potential trade candidate for 2026 offseason

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.

      Schrader / Jeremiah mock draft experiment

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      Sadiq feels like a lazy comp.  Sure he would be a big improvement over what we have but at a position we don't and maybe can't (midget qb) utilize.  I hope the staff puts together a list of players you automatically take at 19 (Freeling, Lemon, Downs, Faulk) and if none are there, trade back to look at (Thieneman, McNeil-Warren, Proctor, Lomu, Allen, Iheanachor, Banks, Woods).  I get the people that think an OT would be a waste because we temporarily patched that hole, and ILB and safety are a waste because that is high to take those particular positions, but by trading back we get extra picks to fill every need.  A draft that has an OT, S, ILB, slot WR, and C would really put us in a good position moving forward if we get an extra first three rounds additional pick.
