Random Reader Rant and/or Revel

You can talk about whatever is on your mind – quality of life issues, a beautiful tree you spotted, scuttlebutt, or any random questions/thoughts you may have. But please no personal attacks. I’ll open this thread every morning at 10am.

Couple of lost and founds from readers this morning:

“I was walking to the Red Derby tonight, and a block and a half away, to the East, on the North side of Quincy, I found a nice small backpack sitting on the sidewalk, all zipped up. I checked the house it was in front of, and they had no ideas. I opened it up, and found no ID or clues. It was packed with a down jacket, a warm looking hat, and maybe some gloves.”

If you think it’s yours the folks at Red Derby will keep it for a week.

“Walking home from work this evening and found keys at 14th & V St. N.W., on the Reeves Building side, across from the empty take-out place (potential Mexican restaurant). The fob looked like the one for my building at Union Row, so I grabbed them just in case. Fob doesn’t work here or for the Flats.

If someone’s lost keys and can describe them, I am happy to return them.”

If you think they’re yours email me and I’ll connect you with the reader.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
