It is Moving Day for OPST. Transitioning back to light/nimble; equipment stored/liquidated; rocking my mobile workstation build for R&D. When I left IBM, my determination was even if I have to drive a truck, I am working for myself from now on. Just have to keep moving forward.
@WellsFargo--epic fail on the #PPP. Initial "app" submitted within 20 min of your intake form going live Apr 3rd. A month later, nothing but the same self-congratulatory email updates sent day after day. In the end, @PayPal got it done. Here is a round To It; seems you need one.

Just heard @bakeryladyhoutx from @3brothersbakery on @hereandnow. "One pity party, then back to work." That hits the situation on the nail. God bless you! Reminds me of FDR, "Men are not prisoners of fate, but only prisoners of their own minds." d

Tik Tok @WellsFargo. Reported burn rate for @BankOfAmerica between 9AM-4:50PM today was $2.8B/hr; $5.7B/hr between 2-4:50PM. Based on the more conservative rate, the #PaycheckProtectionProgram#ppp will be depleted by midnight Wednesday. Napkin math, but still; get it together.
