As thats my initials thats true in more ways than one.
Battery technology does mystify me somewhat. I've used batteries all my life. I remember the feelings of disappointment as a kid whenever I'd see the phrase "batteries not included." I remember a Playtape player that ran on C batteries. I've had walkie-talkies which used 9-volt batteries. In my teen years I had a boom box which took 6 (or maybe 8) D batteries. Then I had a Walkman which took AA batteries which I had to replace about every 2-3 weeks. (In my experience, Energizer batteries lasted longer than Duracell.)
But back in those days, we were still using typewriters and dial telephones, but relative to that, battery technology hasn't seemed to really advance all that much, comparatively speaking. Batteries don't seem to last very long. I'm constantly having to charge my phone and laptop.
I'm not sure if I have any point here, other than, maybe Spock was right:
So long sad times
Go long bad times
We are rid of you at last
Howdy gay times
Cloudy gray times
You are now a thing of the past
Happy days are here again
The skies above are clear again
So let's sing a song of cheer again
Happy days are here again
The rain falls on the just and the unjust.
So...

I am disappointed these business mentors seem to be boneheads. The first one highlighting everything I didn't know and not doing anything constructive to help with that (like recommending a book), amd this one appearing to not know how scheduling works. With the job I should be able to ne comfortable even with moderate business success, which would be easier with this mentor thingy, one would assume, but at this rate I would have been better buying relevant books in the For Dummies series.

My plan "Stabbing Northward" is also back on.
As it getting a book to learn how to work on electric motors and engines and fixing this one I have to be better prepared for the change to EV.
And the other day, having ear problems, I learned those cars are frieghtening when they can sneak up on you because yoi can't even hear the tires.

Some are good. Some not. If there's something particular you have a question about, DM me. I used to be a manager and might have a clue or be able to find one.
Although only intermittently in Californiastan.
Climate change?
