We don't really have anything fun in the office other than zero supervision 24/7. If the weather is decent, we'll hit some golf balls off the back porch of the dispatch office. Every now and then I'll get out in one of the older Pete's and get a good trailer inventory at the Tyson plants I deal with.

One of the basement walls. Nothing too fancy (or organized for that matter). Put up my window sticker and SVT cert last night.

Anything suspicious you might see is probably for the baby shower/diaper party today for my wife’s brother and his wife.

This kind of fits in this thread so I will share. Somehow I have been added to an "expert network" such that I get paid for my opinion. Once or twice a week I will be asked my opinion on various investment related topics. For instance my opinion on market direction or an investment product.

The network then packages this and sells it to fee paying clients. For instance a money manager that is wondering what institutional investors are thinking. This is how it is presented to me:

The thing is that I respond with random bullshit answers. Lots of "I don't know" or "I don't have an opinion on this." It only takes a few minutes of my time and I typically do it while I am on a conference call or in a zoom meeting. Incredibly they keep coming back. Sometimes I clear $300 a week doing this. They have asked me to do video responses for $400 a crack but I do not want to be video taped for fear of my likeness being used to advertise products.

Same happened to me about 5 years ago. Usually they're $50-500 pieces, mostly paid out on Amazon. Last year I made just over $5,000 doing it.

I get those too. Have also had countless "consulting" offers on LinkedIn for up to $500/hr (lol). True story though.

Im also afraid of my likeness being used and word getting around im consulting on the side so I don't do it since im happily employed at the moment via w2.

Maybe some day...
