My wife and I are visiting a resort in Mexico 🇲🇽 and the primary visiting population seems to be Argentinian. There are so many gay weddings here that it made me wonder if gay marriage in Argentina is allowed or as common as in the US?
Everyday, driving in to work, I enter the CTC parking deck with dread. Looking around, I see crumbling concrete and hollowed out looks on employees faces already walking towards the broken turnstiles. For me, another day sitting and fielding endless Team Chats from external engineering causes anxiety. In my opinion, Teams is the worst aspect of my job. In a call, the pushy external’s still text. Lunchtime, they still text. One after another. Responses require multiple chats because they do not understand English let alone proper vehicle terminology. But, we move on. My manager is non-existent as he is holed up in his cubicle after his late, daily arrival. We continue to move on hoping things turnaround but, deep down, we know, “Dare Forward”, The Era of Agility” and “Together we Win” are meaningless phrases. Sure, the Tech Plaza screens look nice but for what purpose? Retirement is a year or two away. More Team Chats are piling up from Externals asking how to do a simple task any self respecting engineer should know how to do. Still, no new Chrysler products. Working at CTC during the 90s was the best. Great product lineup, incredible workers and a CEO who valued the workers at CTC. Tomorrow morning, I will pull in to CTC with dread. How far we have fallen I think as I reach for a Xanax. I hope a piece of the crumbling deck concrete does not fall on my Jeep. Two more years…..why the fuck is that Kia parked in MY deck?
