Dear children: it’s a universal rule to put the ice cream tub back in the freezer before you eat your bowl full. Under no circumstances is it acceptable to reverse that order, especially not with a time gap of, say, 1-10 hours. Signed, the parent.
My kids are now measuring their status by how many Zoom calls they have scheduled per day. Probably time to shut the school machine down for the summer. . .
If you are spending hours on Zoom calls everyday, you are not living, you are slowly dying. Pursue work that lets you delegate without heavy monitoring of, or monitoring by, people around you. Then go build what you love.
@MGM_Studios Have you considered releasing #notimetodie straight to home? The entire world is quarantined right now. Could you not recoup the estimated loss from push back?
My child’s teacher sent a lengthy note to parents saying they’d been discussing heavy topics like lice in the classroom and Coronavirus. . . then ended saying the children will be making leprechaun traps next week . . .
Started telling my car full of kids about something interesting, you know, just to impart a bit of knowledge, and my 8 yr old popped in mid-sentence with “here comes another learning lesson”. #winning
@worldmarket these are your holiday hours? You close at 8pm?! That’s not a rational close at any time of year. I’ll pack Santa’s sleigh somewhere else.
Just heard my 11-yr-old ask “Alexa, who is the author of The Odyssey?” and I thought wow what a cultured question. He then followed that one immediately with “Alexa what’s 2 + 3?” and I realized he was playing some stupid computer game . . . that apparently makes one stupid . . .
@Austen 15” + Standing. If we really need to sit down together and it’s going take longer than 15 minutes there’s a good chance someone hasn’t done their part to be prepared for the meeting.
