Shoutout to my manager for pulling me aside after a rough client call

I totally botched a presentation to a client in Chicago last week and was ready to quit, but my boss just said, 'Let's talk about what we can learn from this.' We spent 30 minutes breaking down what went wrong without any blame. How do you guys handle major screw-ups without letting it wreck your confidence?

Just realized I've watched over 70 episodes of 'Taskmaster' in the past two weeks. That's a full work week of just Greg Davies yelling at people.

My neighbor Frank showed me his trick for a $4 dinner after I complained about grocery prices.

He pulled a bag of dried lentils from his pantry, pointed at his pressure cooker, and said, 'This thing and a 99-cent onion make a pot of soup that feeds me for three days.'

A pilot at my local FBO said our wiring diagrams are like a second language to him

He told me he uses them to troubleshoot in the air when something goes quiet, which made me see our work from a whole new angle. How often do you guys get feedback from the flight deck that actually changes how you approach a job?

That broken ticket machine on my morning bus route has me thinking about how times have changed.

Tbh, I used to feel bad and report stuff like that, but now I just shrug and move on with my day.
