n. The spirit of the time; general trend of thought or feeling characteristic of a particular period of time.
This time at LXK is weird, as it is every year…there’s a combination of languor and pressure. Customers will be irate one minute, gone on vacation the next, and managers sway between micromanagement and “Have a Merry Christmas!”
Maddening.

Thoughts on the way into work:
-
I love cars, but ultimately, they’re (very breakable) things that don’t last very long.
-
On buying new versus buying used–ultimately, it’s a personal preference. There are arguments, intangibles, and assumptions on both sides, but there are two camps: Folks who buy new cars because they can’t imagine a car breaking, and folks who buy used cars who understand that cars break; theirs just break more often :D
