Day 152 of the #UltimateGCFU. Ran out of daylight on this one sadly. However, big victory. 32 seconds of this walk....was a jog, and I wasn't gassed! Timed it to the end of "Breakin' The Law." 🏆

Imagine if you lived in the neighbourhood of the Aylmer Thunderdome, and you see a big dude in an orange jumpsuit and a Vader mask sprinting down the street being chased by some dudes in purple shirts. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Well, I fucked up the #UltimateGCFU count slightly. TODAY is Day 150, and not yesterday. Whoops.

If it's anything like what Finn told me, I know it's from a place of love and not to get pissed off for calling me a cunt. 😆😆😆🫶

Guys, I'm in a little bit of a pickle. This last month for #UltimateGCFU I've hit a wall. Been lazy, but maintained. If you could throw some encouragement/motivation my way for the home stretch of this thing, either in person, DM, or however, that would mean a lot to me. Thanks in advance 🙂

I did some maths. Out of 4.5 years working for my current place, only 105 days were not under mandatory overtime orders. The OT in all cases is to the tune of about 1.5-2 hours a day, essentially doing 6 days of work in 5. Want to know why I'm burned out?

Okay, time to find a new line of work. I didn't lose my job or anything, 3rd day of anxiety attacks there, so I'm not gonna put up with this shit any more.

Doug Ballanger @dougb519.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

So this is new. In consecutive days, I've had an anxiety attack at work, and of course they were the trigger.

After 2 weeks off, I'm back on the #UltimateGCFU wagon for Day 136.

I've stalled out. Had to take a couple weeks off after the #MarchToMordor ...feet were fucked, and now I need some help to get the #UltimateGCFU rolling again.

Doug Ballanger @dougb519.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

This is the lowest I've felt since starting the #UltimateGCFU. Can't pinpoint the trigger, which is annoying.

Doug Ballanger @dougb519.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

Not going to lie, I've been in the dumps today, and I'm not sure what the trigger was.
