It was just a regular old conference call. But I'm sure they would have been fabulous.

Turns out though that some people realized not everything has to be on zoom now.

You know, you can use zoom or Gotomeeting as a traditional phone conference call.

One of our clients has used a zoom line for regular conference calls and at some point they got into a weird routine where every other call was on their line and then our line and it is a horrible system with no benefit and only causes confusion.

So I said "why don't we just use your zoom line every call" and he said "well it doesn't have to be a zoom call" BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T KNOW THEIR OWN CONFERENCE LINE WAS ZOOM

If you didn't have a dress shirt, tie and coat on, with just your underwear, then you're zooming wrong. 

We're long past the point of caring enough for appearances, for the most part. I've given up on hiding that my home is a dumpster fire and that all I wear are single color thermal shirts.

I shake my fist at you working from home assholes. This pandemic has meant nothing to me. Nothing!

I'm glad I don't work from home. When I'm at work, I'm ready to work. When I'm at home, the very last fucking thing I want to do is work. There's so many distractions. TV, Internet, music, guitar.... This was a huge problem for me my last few years of college, I never wanted to do the homework, even though I had no problems wanting to go to class, pay attention, and do classwork.

My distractions are drugs, sex and video games.

If I worked from home the odds are great I could complete an 8 hour day over two, possibly with a need to spread it out but how sober would I need to be ever. I'm incredible.

It's  pretty funny that follows the book more than the movie scene did. Paul's card was gold embossed and sickening to Patrick, complete common arrogance. Bateman was a more disagreeable Dexter. I never watched the show but everyone talked about how he killed the bad guys. "Patty did that too but he made you question how good you should feel."

I like working from home in the afternoons because fuck the office.

It definitely helps if you have good concentration/work ethic or if you have a dedicated work space/room.

Unfortunately I have neither so it's been a real trip.

But god I'd hate to have to suddenly go back now.
