Into being the queen you are.

While emotionally-eating Tim Tams?
Megan
Multitasking is a valuable skill.
Current status: Implementing security patches while reminding myself I’m not a maybe, I’m a hell yes. Also, that Jake’s proved himself different from the tech bros who’ve hurt me before. Though I may have also started a new spreadsheet titled “Reasons to Trust vs Reasons to Run” because old habits die hard.
UPDATE (9:13 a.m.): At work and Karen’s already started a new spreadsheet called “Statistical Analysis of Suspicious Early Morning Motorcycle Departures vs Professional Achievements.” I both hate and love her dedication to my crisis.
P.S. Is it possible to simultaneously trust someone and want to hack their phone to track their location? Asking for a friend. That friend is me. I’m the friend currently fighting the urge to write a tracking algorithm while also believing in the goodness of leather-clad men with dimples.

Pro tip: When Chris from DevOps asks for help debugging his dumpster fire of a codebase and offers to buy you a drink after to say thanks, maybe check which bar he’s planning to take you to.

Somehow just agreed to go for a drink with Chris from DevOps after helping him untangle his disaster-code.
Megan
The guy who can’t figure out basic security protocols?
Me
Yeah
Megan
Wait. Why’s he buying you a drink? Tell me this isn’t some weird attempt at a date.
Me
Yes, I always reward code support with emotionally complicated beverages
Megan
This feels like a trap.
Me
It’s just a thank-you drink.
Megan
