Anyway. How are we all doing this aggressively sunny Monday morning? Anyone get up to anything exciting over the weekend?

I’ve just woke up, managed to get a bit of relaxing done this weekend although not as much as planned so feeling extra bitter about being back to work. Hay fever is on a mission to kill me. Not getting much sleep in general at the moment which is making everything else seem ten times worse.

On the bright side we went swimming yesterday and last time my legs really started to stiffen up the day after but this time I’ve escaped unscathed, so just goes to show how quickly it makes a difference! Also I managed to sort of half figure out a concept in my game dev hobby that’s been kicking my arse the last couple weeks. Still a long way to go until it actually works properly, but I’m making progress and quite proud.

For once, Past Me really put the legwork in on a project last week so Present Me gets to have a fairly slack Monday for once. Sounds good to me!

    I’m trying to get my workplace unionised, but I have this one colleague who keeps insisting that Unite has shareholders and the biggest shareholder is Blackrock and Vanguard and it’s all a plot. I was like ??? Unions have shareholders now?

    So I did a bit of sleuthing and it seems he came across a website about a private real estate company that’s also called Unite who does indeed have shares owned by Blackrock and Vanguard.

    I’m not going mad, am I? Unions don’t have investors and shareholders. He really did conflate this separate company with the union? I just need to put his conspiracy theory to bed so I can try to get our place unionised.
