Big internet outage in #Denver today, but thankfully @Comcast & @Xfinity have got us all up and running again! Phew! Let's just say it's been a very long, rough day at the office. Broadband truly makes the world go 'round 😉 #NoCableMeansNoWiFi #InternetOfThings #PoweredByCable https://t.co/RcfOPZWOSz

“Statistically, you will spend more waking hours at your job than anywhere else. If you’re not comfortable and happy in your job, you’re not going to be a happy person in life. Please be happy in your job. And if you’re not happy in your job, don’t be afraid to change and try to find some place where you’re happy.”
