I was on the front desk today, and heard: it's her, Mum! The lady with the rainbow hair who came to my school!!!
Mum told me the small human had told them all about the rainbow haired lady from the library who had come to school (daycare) and read them stories.

Tattooing in a study room today. Tattoo-ee consenting but everything else about it was wrong. I did smile at the entrepreneurial spirit of the "tattooist" who is doing our L3 Career Prep course & wants to get a job as a tattooist so was "practising" But yes incident report done #betterworkstories
Today was a #betterworkstories type of day.
A screenshot from the Canva search bar with a typo reading 'computer fomt'. Underneath, in computer style type it reads 'Computer Says No.'

Our washing machine broke and we bought one that has a 'bubble storm' setting. I have washed almost everything in the house but keep missing seeing the 'bubble storm' phase of the wash. I just spent about 20 minutes watching the washing then walked away and forgot to come back. #BetterWorkStories
Finally makes the news. I wish I could say more but #BetterWorkStories. It wouldn’t have had this outcome without alot of our work.
Don't wanna brag, but I got 3/10 on a The Last Of Us quiz written by a student just now.
I have never seen the show or watched the video game.

Three mud batteries in a row. Each is a plastic rectangular box half-filled with mud. Two wires come out of the mud & their alligator clip ends clip onto a resistor.
Something I did at work today: made mud batteries. #betterWorkStories
