Every morning, we gather here to contemplate, plan, soak up inspiration, harvest motivation, and get jacked up on coffee and confidence for a day of kicking ass.
LET ME TELL YOU A STORY. IT’S A STORY ABOUT A MAN OR WOMAN STANDING AT THE BASE OF A MOUNTAIN. WE’LL CALL HIM OR HER “PAT” FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE STORY. PAT STARES UP AT THE MOUNTAIN, TOWERING OVERHEAD, REACHING UP INTO THE CLOUDS, BUT PAT ISN’T INTIMIDATED. NO, PAT FEELS CHALLENGED. PAT WANTS TO OWN THAT FUCKING MOUNTAIN — TO PLANT A PAT FLAG WITH PAT’S FACE RIGHT IN THE SUMMIT OF THAT FUCKER AND RENAME IT PAT PEAK. YOU KNOW WHY PAT HAS THIS ATTITUDE? BECAUSE PAT IS A FUCKING CLOSER. BE MORE LIKE PAT TODAY. THAT MOUNTAIN IS YOUR WEDNESDAY. CONQUER THAT SHIT.
What’s on your schedule this morning? What are you going to conquer today? Let us know in the comments section below. Positivity only. Build the energy. Come correct or don’t come at all..

Might fuck around and hit the quan today
I have an intense job interview in a few days. Today my boss from my undergrad internship is putting me through mock interviews and presentations to get me ready. Realest thing anyone’s done for me in a while.
Didn’t even know that type of OG existed anymore. Good luck
You’ll be more nervous during the mock than the real so keep that in mind. Good luck!!
Tried out my new espresso machine. Completely changed the coffee game.
What kind did you get?
Mr. Coffee on amazon for $35. It’s simple enough for an amateur like myself to operate.
If Mr. Coffee was good enough for a legend like Joe DiMaggio, then it’s good enough for the rest of us!
Get on the PGP Columbus Reddit thread
Today is my Friday! Ready to kick ass today and put up the Out of Office email. Heading to Boston to cross Fenway off my ballpark bucket list. Any bar/ restaurant recommendations would be helpful!
Black out at Coogan’s then cure your hangover/keep drinking at Lincoln Tavern
You are entering the cradle of innovation because I live here and stuff
Cask ‘N’ Flagon is pretty dope (across the street from Fenway). Also Nived what’s the name of that bar we went to? That was also dope.
It was called the Smokehouse but now it’s called Magnolia Smokehouse. I’m not 100% sure but I think they dabble in BBQ. Also, I personally think they changed the name as a marketing ploy to differentiate themselves and prevent confusion due to the fact that my favorite medical weed dispensary moved in across the street which used to be a bank. I’m no conspiracy theorist but the future is green folks and I’m not talking about the kind that you have in your wallets
There’s a fantastic burger place around the corner called Tasty Burger. Highly recommend.
Gotta get through today then I’m off to ATX for a long weekend with the family. Any suggestions of things to see/do are greatly appreciated.
Just watch where you’re walking, tripping over a homeless hippie is never fun
I grew up near Santa Monica, I’ve tripped over my fair share of vagrants
Kayak or paddle board somewhere. Rented some SUPs last weekend while I was in town for my birthday and highly recommend. Also, Irene’s for brunch, Red Ash for dinner were both on point.
@OkayestAccountant, thanks for the recommendation the other day on RTIC coolers.
Just looked at it and realized that it is literally the same product selection as YETI, for half the cost. I can’t really justify paying for branding, gotta be pragmatic with my budget.
My best friend has the soft pack cooler, highly recommend.
Feelin good, feelin great today y’all. The sun is out in the land of drop tops and the golf course is calling my name. Extra cup of the black stuff should power me through to a clear afternoon schedule and hopefully a full 18. It’s also my worst coworker’s last day so things are looking up. Have a blessed day y’all.
Went and saw Paul Simon last night, well worth it but I knew when I woke up on the sofa this probably wouldn’t be my day.
PGPers in the Columbus/general Ohio region interested in a meetup should get on the PostGradProblem Reddit, find Kimber1911s account and DM him. I believe the current date he’s shooting for is the 17th and he’s already got a GroupMe going. Also,If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with Mesothelioma you may to be entitled to financial compensation. Either way, contact Kimber1911 today
By whatever kind of luck I have, another happening has agreed to display my work. Time to pump out as much art as possible before September, because everything before now is getting thrown in a pyre.
