As the average weight per person in many parts of the world increased the standard sizes decreased. I don’t think it is much better today when people, on average – and I know there are lots of exceptions, are even larger.
Here it is mid November and we still have a pair of geese hanging out in our yard. It was a trio last week and for a couple of days even a dozen. One of the pair left seems to be limping so we hope it recovers and is able to fly south before the lawn is covered in snow.
Another fine midweek day. I hope you are enjoying it.
Yes. I remember hitting one of those unexpectedly. Very happy I was not going too fast but it did shake everyone up a bit. Sure want to get back to your beautiful island someday soon.
Sure Amazon is cheaper – they don’t have to pay the saleslady her high commission. Oh – and that is a sassy serenity top not just a plain tank top. Same product just different adjectives to inflate the price!
I did a doubletake when I started reading this strip. I thought the timeline was way out of sync with reality but then remembered our Thanksgiving was in October but the US one is November. Must be a sleepy Sunday today.
Dark and gloomy with a little rain today. Cause to be happy – it is not snow!Please enjoy this fine Sunday.
I would find some good excuse every day so I would not have to attend corporate yoga classes. It was bad enough having to go through ‘Survivors’ seminars when I first joined the last company I worked for. The seminars were to help people deal with the fact that they were still employed after the massive layoffs. Yes, I said I had just been hired on – right after the layoffs. Certainly was a waste of time for me. However I thought it was good of the company to at least try to help employees deal with stress. On the other hand, when all 23 of us in the IT department were terminated there was no offers of assistance – not that I needed it but there others in the department that were very anxious as they had worked in that office for their entire careers – some were there for over 30 years.
Hmmm, I don’t think corporate yoga classes would have helped anyone.
I was going to say competitive yoga but Stormcloud Silverlining Snowpaws did it one better with weaponized yoga.
I guess I have been fortunate to avoid workplaces like Cathy’s but my daughters have both reported working with people just like depicted in today’s strip. Maybe because we, as humans (at least most of are human) don’t have to fight to survive anymore our instincts still drive us to fight to be better than everyone else. Hmmm. If this is what being human is I guess I am not human after all. I am quite happy to not be the best around.
Many people are even more slaves to their devices (phones mostly) now than they were when this strip was created – even without a dose of caffeine!
Have a terrific Thursday.
