Good Tuesday to you all, Just got home from work and I am so tired. I had to go in two hours early for work which means my alarm went off at 1 am this morning and I was off to work. We did get the project done; it wasn’t as bad as we thought it was going to be. I only ended up working about 8 hours and 15 minutes and I headed out the door. I am going to take a short nap now since I only got about 4 hours of sleep last night. I did hear about some company, Better.com, who laid off 900 employees yesterday. So nice of them to do it right here at the holiday. It’s not like that was bad enough but the way the CEO did it was even worse. He invited the employees to a Zoom call and then told them all that they were laid off. I guess he let them know in 5 minutes and logged off the Zoom call. I guess what more is there to say but dang that seems cold. I guess some people put up videos of it on different social media sites. I personally have not seen it, but I might look for it after my nap. Well, hope you all have a good day.

I normally start at 5 am. but I get up about 3 am to get there on time. I guess better.com is some kind of online real estate company.

I hope you're able to get some rest. I feel so bad for those employees. Definitely not what you want just before the holidays.

I was able to take a nice little 45-minute nap and will try to get to sleep a little early tonight. I feel for them, not the time or the way to get news like that. Well, the upside is there is a lot of places hiring right now.
