Oh, so now it’s a crime to bring your whole self to work
So apparently my company can't remove the guy cooking his beets and tuna in the air fryer. People have picked up and moved their desks because of it. One guy said he was at his desk seasoning chicken breasts.
People are livid.

Happy GIS Day to all who celebrate!
Just remember that some of us are non-denominational geospatial engineers and many of us prefer Happy Holidays.
Let's be inclusive of our CAD operators, drafters, surveyors and opensource colleagues in addition to ESRI users during these festive times! 🌈

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans:
Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet.
So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.
