Nowadays, I just have ‘moody cats’.

Exactly.

I remembered a worse time (than being the one who kills access):

One of my vendors had won the contract that my company currently held with an automaker. It was told to me in confidence, as they thought it was going to be announced later that month. I was also told because they were looking to hire me to keep all the day-to-day knowledge.

It was finally announced… EIGHT. MONTHS. LATER.

While I never said anything (it could have tucked a major deal and got myself and a few others in legal hot water), I was always quick to counsel my underlings to move to other positions or get jobs somewhere else.

I still run a fantasy football league from my first corporate job back in the 90s. None of us are at the company anymore.

With my access in my last job, I could have crippled the company with 5 minutes notice.

It’s horribly passive-aggressive, but it is safest for the company.

My brother was on the list of names once.

I was not allowed to tell him, but HR let me take off that day and had someone else do it.

I remember being the server guy who had to stay late on Fridays and remove access at 6pm.

I got a panicked call from someone who couldn’t save the file he was working on. It was for a project set to go live on Tuesday.

I had to break it to him that he was just let go.

Amazing!

Not sure what’s up with your feed, but mine is… not that.

Horta. Didn’t it have magma inside it?

The ends of both earbuds are a singular panel that clicks. Click once to fo “A”, double click for “B”, etc.

I set mine up so a single click will start/stop media. It will also answer or close phone calls.

Even mediocre Beets earbuds have physical “click panels”. I’ve used mine in the Upper Peninsula at -18F with gloves, hood, and ear covers.

Unless they are all unique, you should be able to make a silicone mold of a remaining piece to duplicate in resin/plaster/etc.

Look up resin casting resources for more how-to (posting from work, so cannot dig them up).

Edit to Add

I do, but I’m handicapped.

ETA: I don’t really care if a non-handicapped person uses it.

You have personally upset Zeus, who keeps popping your breakers out of spite.

On cold nights, my oldest cat demands that I make a “bed tent” with my legs so she can sleep under the blankets without being touched.

I’ve fallen asleep in this position more than once.
