Wow. That motherfucker can dance. Makes it looks easy too.
Today I got a fauxmotion at work. Which is like a promotion except my job responsibilities don’t change, but I got a fancier title. But it came with an 11% raise so fuck it I went to the bar with my friends with the intention of downing a lot of Bulliet Rye in celebration. Only they were out out of it so they gave me Templeton Rye at the same price all evening.
This is a longwinded way of saying I’m three sheets to the wind and tomorrow will suck.
Oh yeah, totally called that one.
Want some rye? Course ya do!
(I’m a Russel’s Rye fan, personally)

Vodka and club soda. Not a special hipster drink. But just good enough.

Congrats! I’m actually due for a fauxmotion, we do that to get around insanely low job caps by out Korean owned company. They are so low as to be anticompetitive at current U.S. job pay scales. The back and forth over those titles and HR has been going on for years but the net effect is everyone gets strange new titles. I’m due, I just haven’t had it yet. Here’s hoping … one year.
Congratulations on your promotion to Chief Masterbating Officer, Skip!

I’m just getting promoted to Chief Masturbating Specialist. Let’s not get too carried away with manager title just yet. But both of those are far beyond Masturbation Help Desk Technician.
That’s what cracked me up about my fauxmotion. I’m the CTO for my division now (by title anyway). Which sounds like a really impressive executive job, but I have no direct reports and still spend 75% of my time doing hands-on individual contributor stuff. But hey, it looks great on the resume so I’ll take it!
Chief Onanism Officer is trickier to put on a resume. I guess one just puts COO and hope people think you mean Chief Operations Officer?
We went to three 3ineri3s today and we’re having wine with dinner and I’m really drunk andovruou all.

After 4 months of drinking NA beer, my first real bear. It tastes so strange. Its 6.8% so my first sip the flavor of the alcohol was overwhelming. It has a relaxing quality about it though that I have missed. Not drunk yet, but getting there.
Cheers!

Beautiful golden honey color and light foam. Looks a little hazy too, how was the taste beyond the alcohol? Fruity? Flowery?

That is one of favorite beers. At least it used to be. My sense of taste is now completely distorted and all I could get is the tangy alcohol flavor outside of the hops. I didn’t enjoy it as much as I thought I would. Plus 3 of them knocked me out.
I should have went with something lighter for my first drink after so long. Maybe when I drink the last 3 tonight I can better answer your question?

I hear that. No rush on the answer, I’ve never seen that brewery so I’m assuming it might even be a local for ya.
