Fortunately it was pretty quiet at work. Mike was at the high school all day for the virtual conference they were hosting. I spent all day with Brody hunting for Chromebooks. We&#8217;re short nearly half of the lease that needs to go back, and I don&#8217;t know what we&#8217;re going to do. Hopefully we can return some alternate devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We decided to try The Gunslingin&#8217; Burger for lunch. I had been once with Allen a while back, and my opinion didn&#8217;t change today. It was a pretty good burger, but not worth near what it cost. It would have stung less if the combo meal at least came with a drink, but the girl said they stopped including a drink when too many people chose to bundle with shakes. I guess it never crossed their minds to simply not allow that, and to only include a fountain drink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In any case, I&#8217;m still creeped out by the life-size cross standing in the dining room. Then the chef seems to miss social cues as he lingers to ask how you enjoyed your meal. In most any other environment I wouldn&#8217;t take issue, but in this scenario it just kind of makes everyone feel a little uncomfortable. I think at a cheaper price point I would just accept everything else, but this just feels like a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After lunch, I ended up sitting out of any real group work. I tried to do some sleuthing to find the missing devices in any system at all, but didn&#8217;t have any luck. I spent the last bit of the day prepping for my interview first thing tomorrow. I think I&#8217;ve just decided to go all-in. I want to believe that the three of us have a fighting chance, but a bigger part of me thinks there&#8217;s no way they&#8217;ll let it happen, so I feel like I have to really do something to stand out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After work, I ran by Summer&#8217;s shop to try and print a better copy of my &#8220;blank&#8221; page to my r\u00e9sum\u00e9. It turned out really well, but I wanted to see if Staples could go full-bleed. Unfortunately they couldn&#8217;t, but I perused clearance while I was there. Then I stopped by Taco Bell for a quick dinner on the way home. They were unbelievably slow, and the food seemed really lean, but it tasted alright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mom and Dad stopped in while I was putting together my individual packets for tomorrow. Then I video chatted Summer while I picked out a nice outfit for the morning. I hope it pays off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>I suppose you&#8217;re all wondering why I called you here today.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I felt exhausted all day again today, and I still don&#8217;t know if I&#8217;m just not getting enough sleep, or if it&#8217;s [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[36,6,27],"class_list":["post-5237","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorised","tag-food","tag-reviews","tag-work"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5237","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5237"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5237\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5238,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5237\/revisions\/5238"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5237"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5237"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5237"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
