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.
HERE WE ARE, BOYS AND GIRLS, RIGHT SMACK IN THE MIDDLE OF ANOTHER BLESSED DAY. YOU’RE READING THIS, WHICH MEANS YOU’RE BETTER OFF THAN A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO DON’T HAVE INTERNET ACCESS, SMARTPHONES, COMPUTERS, TABLETS, OR OXYGEN IN THEIR LUNGS BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T MAKE IT TO SEE TUESDAY. SHIT JUST GOT REAL. THIS IS THE REALNESS ZONE AND WE DON’T PLAY SOFTBALL. WE PLAY HARDBALL. DEAL WITH IT. SORRY IF YOUR SENSITIVE EYEBALLS CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH BECAUSE IT’S COMING AT YOU ANYWAY. IF YOU SKATE THROUGH THIS DAY LIKE A FUCKING CLOWN THEN YOU’RE A DISGRACE TO HUMANITY AND NOT DESERVING OF THE BREATH YOU DRAW. MAKE SOMETHING OF YOURSELF YOU DICK. DON’T TAKE A SINGLE BEAT OF YOUR HEART FOR GRANTED. LISTEN TO THIS CLASSIC PHIL COLLINS JAM, CLOSE YOUR EYES AND MEDITATE ON ALL THE ASS-KICKING YOU’RE GOING TO DO TODAY, THEN GO OUT AND DO IT. I’M SICK OF TALKING ABOUT IT LET’S FUCKING RIDE.
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..

JUST WHITTLED MY INBOX DOWN TO FOUR EMAILS SO I GUESS YOU CAN SAY I’M HAVING A GREAT MORNING.
Email is terrible, totally terrible. I’m more of a Twitter man myself.
Wow. I’m strangely turned on by the thought of a clean inbox.
Have a blessed Tuesday everyone.
I’m stuck deep in the rabbit hole of 10k unread emails. I’m equally as excited to see an empty inbox
Select all and hit “archive” it’s your only way out. Think of it like filing bankruptcy. This is your chance to start over. It’s a new day!
Brilliant strategy- trying that today. In the event that this results in termination, I hope you’ll respect my honesty during the interview process, Why did you leave your last job Mr. Manifest? “Terminated due to filing email bankruptcy.” [Insert Michael Scott “I-Declare-Bankruptcy” Meme]
Got in way early today but that’s alright because the coffee is flowing and I found out I have an interview in two weeks for an excellent career opportunity! So today will be full of interview prep for another job while pretending to do my current job.
Make sure you lie and tell them you make $10k more than you actually do and then say you will be willing to leave your current company for a $15k increase. They’ll probably negotiate it down to $10k but you won’t care because you just gave yourself a $20k bump. Don’t worry about lying anymore , do you think being honest gets people anywhere in this world? Look who our fucking President is, look at OJ Simpson, walk down Wall Street, go to Yemen and see if those people appreciate honesty as it’s being dropped from the sky. Lie, cheat, and steal that’s the only way you’re gonna make it in this dumb society lol
I fucking love you, man.
Likewise, Bill.
Crush it, Tony. Crush it.
FUCK YEAH!!! GOT A FAT BONUS LAST NIGHT. IM JACKED UP!
Congratulations on the sex.
Interviewing a bunch of soon-to-be college graduates, from my alma mater, for an opening in our operation today. Going to do my best to be dignified and pretend I wasn’t a total degenerate when I was in their shoes. Cheers
On cup number 3, wearing my lucky tie to court today, and channeling the Texas Law Hawk all day!
Today is the day you break that 10 cup threshold. You can do this.

JUST SAT DOWN AT MY DESK TO FIND THE INTERNET IS DOWN!! FUCK YEAH TUESDAY
16 hour staff duty shift, left fucking do this.
god damnit, let’s
WORKOUT, SHOWER, COFFEE. NOW ITS TIME TO LAY THIS TUESDAY DOWN IF YA KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
First day back after my weekend trip to Tennessee. Stepped foot in my office and realized I forgot my laptop at home. “Borrowing” someone else’s desktop until I get caught. Send prayers.
Update: going to a luncheon (that I forgot about) near my place so I thought I could stop by and grab it. Boss now wants to carpool in my p.o.s. car so today just keeps getting worse.
Just come back to Tennessee. You can forget about your problems here.
Seriously considering it
Strongly recommend sneaking out to the lot to give it a once over inspection before lunch. It’ll save the panic attack of walking out to it thinking “is [insert trash, dirty gym clothes, embarrassing ointment, etc.] currently in plain site?”
Cleaned it up as best I could. She still turned her nose up at my camo floor mats though. There was nothing I could do.
DIDNT HAVE MY PREWORK CUP OF COFFEE AND THEREFORE FORGOT MY LUNCH. DAMNIT
Well shit is about to get a lot better. Email me your Venmo and lunch is on me today. Ross@Grandex.co (not .com #PGP)
^ That is dope. You’re one hell of a man, Bolen.
In case anybody didnt know: Ross is the realest dude at Grandex
