A special shout-out to the building engineers who scheduled fire alarm testing at the office for 7am on a Monday. Punishment for being an early bird, I guess. #ImAwakeNow

I wish more people knew about geofencing. My phone automatically goes silent when I get to the office. My seatmate's phone not only rings, it audibly announces who is calling her. #rto #rude

My commute this morning was just over an hour. My commute home tonight was almost 2 hours. I love return to office. I can't even think of anything better to do with 3 hours out of my day. /s

Some days, being a woman SUCKS. I was gearing up for a ride and learned that a male cyclist sexually harassed a woman multiple times on the bike trail I was going to ride. So now my ride is cancelled because he's still at large.

We can't even do fucking sports without worrying about our safety.

A woman once told me, at the bus station while our bus pulled up and we were crossing the parking lot, "I don't run for buses on Monday." I adopted this mentality and it dramatically improved my Mondays thereafter. I hope her pillow is always cool.

A giant πŸ–• to Red Bull Racing for prioritizing performance over sexual harassment. And in the end getting rid of him for team performance, not for his bad behaviour. #patriarchy
