[1/4] Ok this is really funny, check this out.
I was in the process of booking a flight via @OneTravel. Trying to make me book ASAP, they claimed: "38 people are looking at this flight".
Whoa, 38 is a lot, I have to hurry up. But first I have to check how they came up with 38 >>

[2/4] Right click and a quick "inspect" on the number, I found out the element's class name is "view_notification_random".
Awesome variable naming guys.
So you're _randomly_ trying to freak me out. Alright >>

[3/4] So what's your sophisticated pseudo-random algorithm?
Apparently, OneTravel are choosing a number between 28 and 45.
Because as you all know, based on serious psychological research, these numbers tend to make people book their flights fast #sarcasm #not42 >>

it’s Friday night and we’re living it up watching my favorite movie of all time

I don’t know much about Star Wars ships but I like that the resistance ships look like fragile precious eggs, maybe one of the richest symbols you could use. Round and friendly..

The first spoken words on screen (and don’t you for a second think that Rian wasted them on something unrelated to the core theme of the movie) — is Kaydel (a woman, the feminine) urging a Mustachioed Man to abandon weapons in order to save people 👀

@jonesabi

Since I joining a new team last year, I've done about 500 1:1's.

500.

I didn't really do 1:1's before this.

Oh sure, I had 1 manager that one time who did biweekly 1:1's for about 6 months. And another who would sometimes just...not show up to them?

But mostly...no 1:1's.

@livlab

When I started my new role, I asked for advice from a lot of folks.

@livlab recommended @managertools

*Everyone* recommended @lara_hogan's work

Others mentioned books like, First 90 Days, Debugging Teams, @skamille's Manager's Path, and all those Lencioni books.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

@FBI

Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.

This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...
