I tried that. But since I'm sure you shave out of the shower..I made myself a little ill.

Well another shave in the books and the same setup. The soap has maybe one or two more shaves in it, it is on its last leg. The thing with this Victory soap after using it exclusively it is nice to see that you don't need to spend a LOT of money on shave soap to get excellent shaves. This is a quality product by @Victory~Dale and I am happy to have him as a vendor here! I will definitely be replacing this scent when it is all said and done as well.

Gonna have to close your eyes again. Well Dave let's not have you do that it got a little weird yesterday

Nothing crazy to report. Things are going well here. We are beginning to talk about what we are going to do for Halloween as all of our normal stuff has been cancelled or the risk level seems too high to warrant it. Work has been crazy busy lately. We are going through a lot of audits right now, and I am getting really tired of answering the phone. The worst part about working at home is it never seems like you can just turn it off and walk away. The boss knows you are there and can easily get on. It doesn't help that I now report to a different VP who lives in Delaware they have not figured out timezones yet it seems. So I need @BarberDave to give them a lesson.

In a WFH scenario, it's best to lay out the ground rules of your availability as early as possible. Otherwise, it can devolve into a situation where you are expected to be available at all times.
Perhaps the most "comfortable" way to bring up and address this would be to ask, "What would be the expectation if we all worked in the office?" and communicate that this should be the standard for hours of availability.
I heard you tried that with your wife and got a tomato up the nose.
When I was woken up at 5AM today, I think they got the hint. And in my meeting today with them it will be a topic of discussion.
Just start the work day two hours later. But of course close up shop for the day same time as usual. That should work...right?

Well I thought the soap would die tomorrow, it ended today. As it crumbled under the brush, and a lather was made, the shave was most excellent. Now it is time to move onto what ever soap is next. I have some new stuff from CBL so might grab that. But I also want to give Ethos the 3017 treatment. Great soap from Frank @Dragonsbeard but with how full that tub is, not sure I am ready for long of a 3017 journey. But we shall see, but if I do use it you can guarantee they will all be excellent shaves!

Well it's thursday which means football for 3 days in a row as High School here enters week 9. Crazy to believe that next week will be the last week of the season then playoffs start. Basketball is being talked about here, and I am just staying on the sidelines trying to decide what to do. With all we have learned about the virus and how we know that it spreads more so in poorly ventilated areas I am less eager to enter a stuffy gym and officiate basketball. I MIGHT do it if there are no fans and they pull the benches back further. But I might sit this season out which is real sad. I also usually help officiate some AAU basketball to help a few friends out... there is NO WAY I will be doing that before a vaccine. Anyways have a good day cadre.

For football I have officiated every week and have even helped with the local little league on Saturdays. To me I figured being outside and not near anyone player for longer than ten seconds I felt the risk was relatively low, still there but low.
Basketball is a totally different animal. Indoors, during flu and cold season, tight packed gyms, with everyone sweating, and usually not the best ventilation. I just can't see myself being okay with it. The risk outweighs the reward in that instance. However there is talk about things that could happen that MIGHT make me feel more comfortable. Not allowing fans in first 5 rows, not allowing fans at all and just streaming all games, pulling the player benches way back, etc. So I have personally not made a final decision yet on what I will do. Pre-covid we have already been short officials, now during covid the answer is simple we are even more short on officials. It's a personal decision that each official has to make.
