    What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

    FBG this morning remains an elevated 6.9. I've been advised from senior folks at work that I'm sharing in their opinion too much on the forum about my locations, partnership discussions, private life even mentioning for whom I work is a grey area. I thought it was pretty benign myself, but...

    Just been driven past this - once a leading light, now along with AOL a monetary worthless division of telecom provider Verizon. Shame. Silicon Valley is littered with similar stories as the relentless march for tech excellence, innovation and relevancy can be fickle and rather too temporary.

    Some of you might recall weeks ago one of my original team was admitted to hospital due to very serious Coronavirus complications. I've just met her. She is suffering still but on a long slow healing process and I've told her not to worry - her job is still here and we will welcome her back...

    Just been driven to my meeting. Socially distanced and masked up outside for 60 minutes... And yes, we do talk and even cooperate. A bit like co-opetition I guess ;)

    It's 0735 PDT. First 2 calls are done. The trickiest one is nigh to MrsBRS in north east Somerset. My trip back home has been turned on its head. I leave here as planned next week, but heading to a critical meeting on the east coast first. Then from there to Israel for 2/3 nights and finally...

    I hear you. Wipe its back side, tear off the horns and stop it mooing by biting into it. Seems to be the way. Oh, and serve it all up with lobster Mac and cheese for extra calories to line the arteries with aplomb.

    I've seen Americans demolish a full stack, bacon, sausage and a blob of full cream butter mixed in with maple syrup and berries. Welcome to diabetes heaven...

    @Mrst123 Great news on the 2nd interview. Please let us all know how you get on and if you wanna bounce any ideas before the event. In HR tech, there's this concept of ATS - applicant tracking software and there's a way of manipulating your cv so keywords the ATS is tuned to look for get you...

    It's a tick box so I keep in with their good books. I do everything they ask; but when it doesn't apply or doesn't work, I tell them...and have a discussion...

    I've been to Galveston. The song's great but the place is horrifying. You're so right. @lindisfel There's a brill steakhouse in Austin not far from Dell - where the tornado chop lasted me 2 days as they cut it off the bone for sandwiches, and I had it cold. In those halcyon days, I could eat...

    0515 and awake. FBG is 7.0mmol, not surprised I have to say. Not very much sleep. Awoke to the news Prince Phillip has passed; wishing him a safe journey on. In 1997, I was funnily enough in San Francisco when Diana died, just a bit of deja vu. 0600 breakfast call. Getting ready for that...

    Yes. I heard someone in the gas station where I was getting water saying the same. Microchips implanted, DNA changed...I was masked (twice - the idiot wasn't - and no, he wasn't exempt because I asked). The mouthful and xenophobia because I wasn't American spreading foreign disease was...
