@HopValley Extremely obnoxious today. Server kicked us out in the middle of a high-ticket business meal, because of the terrible 90-minute limit. Not our first time entertaining customers at Hop Valley, we’ve given a lot of biz in the past. That might be over after today.

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” ~ Mark Twain

This Republican Congress has proven incapable of fulfilling the Founders’ design that “Ambition must ... counteract ambition.” All who believe in this country’s values must vote for Democrats this fall. Policy differences don’t matter right now. History has its eyes on us.

@PaulMoakHonda First-class service every time I visit. You guys make brand loyalty easy.

President Trump makes good on his threat to target an additional $200 billion in Chinese imports with tariffs, ramping up the trade war https://t.co/Blsq87GmRE

@realDonaldTrump Wow @realDonaldTrump. "Phony stories of sadness and grief"? Do you and @CLewandowski_ have a bet to see who could be more insensitive? Don't be stupid.

@cups_roasters Only in stores, apparently, because I was informed by Fondren @cups_roasters that #FEF doesn't apply for orders to-go. Give away espresso, sell snacks, build community. Why can't I take my drink to the office?

@realDonaldTrump @realDonaldTrump What happened to free speech? Now POTUS condemns people for what they DON'T say? Sad.

Do:

- Cultivate personal connections with colleagues so they assume positive intent when you attempt to influence.

- Make it clear to your colleagues that you value their opinions.

- Develop expertise by attending conferences or taking on a leadership role in an organization https://t.co/kSHxHUmfEe

Some work will always work best with employees. But finding WORK instead of a JOB can be creatively entrepreneurial. https://t.co/9AnqvgZFHY
