TODAY Lookin' at a 107 heat index today. We are gonna get \_FUCKED\_ with Prime Day bullshit. The smartest among us are burning their call-ins. I am not a smart man. Thank Fuck Amazon was able to clear out that old inventory in via a fucking Barrage of Bullshit and Poorly Taped Boxes*. I've been working in metal 53 foot trailers all week. Our door fans have an effective range of ~20 feet. Should be good times. Might break the 2 gallon mark on water consumption. Did 1.5 yesterday over 5 hours. My family wants us to go see the City Band at the park tonight. I have my doubts about my willingness to sit in the heat off the clock. I have my doubts about their willingness too. I don't understand why the Band only plays in the dead of summer, buried in the middle of the week. Weekends? Spring? Fall? Nope. LAST SUNDAY I made falafel! I've been meaning to do a #grubski post about it, but haven't gotten around to it yet. Frying is a pain, otherwise I'd make falafel more than twice a year. LAST SATURDAY Helped a friend move into a house he just bought with his new USPS salary. Well, I say "helped"... he's at the bottom of the seniority list. Guess who got called in to do a cover route on the day of the move? Yep. _________________________ * Fuck paper tape. Double fuck paper tape that was minimally applied. Triple fuck paper tape that was minimally applied to the bare minimum of products that can qualify as "cardboard".
I've forever been a little confused as to what you do. The Amazon thing makes me thing "warehousing" but the metal trailers thing makes me think "not warehousing". The heat sounds awful, either way. It's maybe 80 here and we're giving our folks popsicles on the daily.
Logistics! I help move other people's stuff around the world. "Warehousing" isn't too far off the mark for my job. Since we don't hold onto anything, though, life revolves around taking stuff out of trailers and then putting said stuff back into trailers for the next leg of the journey.I've forever been a little confused as to what you do.

Dude I've been on a falafel binge myself! To the point where I've almost bought a deep fryer just to make them better/faster. Have you tried any variations on them? We made some turmeric falafel and they were AWESOME.I made falafel! I've been meaning to do a #grubski post about it, but haven't gotten around to it yet.

My basic falafel is: 1lb chickpeas (dry/pre-soaking) 1 onion 2-3 jalapenos 1 standard issue grocery store bunch of cilantro a small pile of ground coriander a variable amount of garlic salt flour if needed I have some Sumac that I put into our hummus, and I keep meaning to try it in the falafel but I forget. TBH, we make it so infrequently I haven't felt much of a need to change it up. We do have a big ass jar of turmeric... DON'T TEMPT ME! I dare not take it. Not even to keep it safe. Understand. I would use this fryer from a desire to do good... But over me, it would wield a power too great and terrible to imagine. Oreos. I would fry a shitload of oreos.

shitload of oreos.
