Millennial problems - show up at Punch for pizza takeout and overhear them say, “there are actually orders for three Jennifers.”

Neiman Marcus closed its downtown Dallas flagship on Wednesday. The store played a notable role in the history of desegregation in Dallas. Previously, Black shoppers across the US could enter department stores, but they weren't allowed to try on clothes without adhering to certain conditions. 🧵

I swear that fall air carried smells the best. Downtown Stillwater smells like waffle cones and fudge shops, grilled onions, fancy candle stores and book shops.

For old foodies like me, it’s a tease to keep reading about Evergreen Cafe opening in Sun Street’s old location and not being a reincarnation of the old Evergreen that used to serve vegan Taiwanese food in the basement on Eat Street

Sometimes I think about how my firstborn grew up to the sound of Anthony Bourdain’s voice as I watched every episode Cook’s Tour & No Reservations as I nursed and rocked her to sleep. (Spouse and I took night shifts) My second grew up listening to every episode of Community😂

I’m sure I’m on some kind of list, but I love filling out the employee voice surveys honestly, whenever we’re asked to do something that doesn’t make sense I ask, “but why?” and I like to say, “this is approaching Office Space territory!” when things approach Office Space territory

Iced coffee is amateurish. Pros show up to interviews with a plate of ribs wrapped in aluminum foil and a roll of paper towels.

Of course you should be able to bring an iced coffee to a job interview, but you shouldn’t if you want to play the game. Many things about working in corporate don’t make sense and they’re not for our benefit. That’s my hot take, kids.

RABID BAT FOUND ON SIDEWALK
On Tuesday, September 15 at about 12pm, a bat was found on the sidewalk on Hennepin Ave between N. Washington Ave and N 3°St.
The bat died and was sent for rabies testing. This bat tested positive for
rabies.
A woman was seen crouching by the bat and putting it into a bag. She was described as a 25-to-30-year-old white woman, about 5'5", with curly brown hair and a curly-haired golden retriever-like dog. If this was you, please call 911 and ask to be connected to Animal Care & Control.
Bites from bats are tiny, may be painless, and may not leave a mark. An person who had physical contact or touched this bat should talk with health care provider this weekend for assessment. During the week, Minnesota Department of Health can also provide rabies assessments at 651-201-5414.
If vou did not touch or have any contact with the bat, you have no risk of rabies and do not need shots.

My favorite thing about RTO mandates is not only how gas is at an all time high, but how leadership makes us report metrics on everything we do, but refuses to share any metrics about the impact RTO is actually having

Hardly anyone ever talks about it, but there’s this little gelato place next to a Taco John’s in Shoreview called Gacha Gelato. They have the most ethereal flavor of gelato vaguely called “Rice milk.” It tastes like the creamiest rice pudding flecked with little pieces of rice.
