The singles scene may be buzzing with the phone dating apps fad, but traditional online dating websites are not going anywhere. These services remain popular with people who do not find swiping dating apps dignified or serious and would rather not participate in playing the latest fashionable dating game (e.g. anyone remember speed dating?). Online … Continue reading The Essential Online Dating Sites Review
Happy Halloween! Coworkers dressed up in costumes, scary decorations, little trick-or-treaters from a nearby school walking through the office, my cubicle neighbor clipping his fingernails… Wait a second, excuse me? Yes. This has been a weekly occurrence for the past couple of months and despite calling him out on this inappropriate, unhygienic, and unprofessional conduct, … Continue reading A Day in the Life of a Corporate Desk Jockey: Episode 5
I started my office work experience at the end of the last century, but it wasn't until 2013 that I first heard the absurd and profane greeting of "Happy Monday." Upon first hearing this from the mouth of some dim corporate flunky on another one of those bleak, miserable Mondays, I was utterly dumbfounded. It … Continue reading Happy Monday
Posterity, you will never know how much it cost the present generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that ever I took half the pains to preserve it. ― John Adams A nation of well informed men who have … Continue reading Happy Independence Day, America!
After a few uneventful weeks, the Raptor comes storming back during an impromptu staff meeting. He is in an unusually good mood and goes off on several different tangents. Apparently his wife is out of town―perhaps the reason for his cheerfulness―and he will be coming in later in the mornings on account of dog duties. … Continue reading A Day in the Life of a Corporate Desk Jockey: Episode 4

It is worth noting that I'm using 'professor' in the loosest sense of the word. I'm not referring to a pipe-smoking gentleman … Continue reading “You’re Not Thinking Like an MBA”

Another quiet day in the office with the monthly birthday celebration where we stand around awkwardly singing 'Happy Birthday' to people we barely know. This is usually a well-attended event mainly because it allows everyone to take a guiltless, hour-long break from work and eat cake. Then there is the camaraderie, bonding with coworkers, and … Continue reading A Day in the Life of a Corporate Desk Jockey: Episode 3
It is difficult to think of an office activity that is more worthless than your typical, run-of-the-mill 30-60 minute meeting. It would take an entire auditing team from PwC to calculate the amount of hours I have wasted sitting in meetings during my 12 years in the corporate world. And let's not even get started … Continue reading Let’s Not Have a Meeting
We agree to meet on a Tuesday night at the bar of one of Nashville's swankier restaurants. This should have been the first of many warnings about Nicole. We met magically―as if it was meant to be―after we both swiped right on the other's Tinder profile. Witty banter ensued―mostly from my side―and before you knew … Continue reading Seri Dating Diaries: Episode 1 ― Awaken the Alcoholic Within
