Random Thoughts IX (The first 8 were probably better)

[isulive2train]

so I was asked to review some promotional materials that included a decent bit of data on them. It can be tedious to check but we don't want to send out wrong info. I was headed to a meeting so I forwarded to a couple other people to ask for their help as it was a tight deadline. I've been trying to pushback on this for a while anyway as I am starting to be relied on too heavily for something that is not my responsibility and generally happens at at time when I have my actual work to prioritize. But, because I'm careful and meticulous about it, no good deed goes unpunished and all that. So anyway, I'm trying to get other people involved and helping so it's not all dumped on me. One of the people I was trying to involve used to be more in charge of this but has moved away from it. I didn't think they had done a great job when they were in charge and was a bit leery that they would actually carefully look over what I sent them. But they had familiarity with the process and would know what should be done.
So I have a couple minutes to start looking at the material before my meeting. I quickly realize that every data point is outdated information and all of the materials need to be redone. I shoot off an email to the creator informing them. I don't have time to let the people I forwarded know.

I get back from my meeting and have two emails. One is the creator basically saying yep, we used old data, will resend corrected info soon.

Another is from one of the people I forwarded to. They say "looked over it quickly, didn't find anything glaring."

You know, aside from all of it being wrong. Guess I was right to suspect they'd half-ass it. Hell, they didn't even do that.

Data is neat.

The brand name of the ceiling fans in this gym is "Big Ass".

They started out selling ag/industrial fans, then moved into schools etc. Local school put them in the new middle school commons area, seen the printing made them install the blades upside down, so the writing didn't show.

It was on the center of the fan so there's no hiding it.

How many peacoats is too many peacoats to own? I'm at three.

Seems one would be sufficient. Of course I haven't worn a peacoat since I was in college before you were born. Apparently peacoats are timeless like blue blazers?

I at first read that as "three peacocks" and thought "Hell, a man can never have too many peacocks and how cool is it that McTall has ******* peacocks!"

Honestly took that loss better than I thought I would. Better to face adversity and get adjustments made in the preseason.

I can tell I spent some time in the car (aka Das Studio Audi) today. Radio time equals songs stuck in head. Currently Adele with Send my Love and P!nk's Just Like Fire are in battle royal in my head for dominance. Goddamn catchy pop tunes.

What color(s)? A navy, a black, and something else?
