…and another one gone
By the time anyone reads this, I’ll be done working for the year. It’s kind of fitting that the big thing on my agenda for the last day is the try-to-make-it-quarterly touchpoint meeting with my supervisor to talk through the whole work experience thing and make plans for moving forward into 2024. So, having wrapped […]

friday random elevenish: “fifty-one point seven” edition
