Today started with my coffee machine taking its own life. As I have an emergency backup, I still managed a cup of getoutdahouse.
Then Mrs Wife offers to drive us in as 14 had an exam. The car broke down. We got it back from a service on Monday and think it's related.
Finally the kettle, I am reliably informed, has joined the coffee machine in electronic suicide. Maybe they had a pact...
So car's back in the garage.
Coffee machine repair organised.
New kettle purchased.
Oh, new job too.

Congrats on the new job - no wonder you can afford to splurge on a new kettle!

... nobody would suspect the new guy of taking home something that obvious / large,
new guy's start with pens and maybe a stapler. Be brave!

I suspect he might get away (literally) with it on his first day, but it might raise some questions once everyone recognizes his face...
Would have been safer to grab the coffee machine from his old job

At rate of electronic suicide you'll need need to do odd jobs!

I still like the classic Enterprise bridge of the original Star Trek.

Yes! I would love to have one of those inertia dampening

I'd settle for a few places I visit to have the turbo lift,
and seemingly also always there right away.
notwithstanding also not full of cackling old cows getting off one by one on separate floors

And to get you started on your bridge: Captain Kirk's Chair[^]
PS. Also my choice.
PPS. I wonder if you could 3d print one of these chairs?

Hmmm, probably, though having never played with 3D printers, I am not qualified to speak on such matters.

But which version of the "bridge"? The white one with the round things? The dark wood one that Tom rocked for a while? The man-cave that Sylvester had in the movie? Or one of the modern versions?
