First day I ride the bike to the new job and I leave my jacket and helmet in the office while we go out on site. Come back, both the owner and a manager are hanging out outside the office unable to get into the building. Someone locked the door and neither the owner or manager have a building key. So, now I'm stuck riding home with no helmet and no jacket.

Things I don't care to do.

Since neither the owner or manager have enough sense to carry a spare key to their office, you should seriously contemplate working for their competition. That is not evidence of mismanagement, it is proof of it. "Locked out" just sad. They do not have the ability to lead. They are followers.

They didn't have keys to the building, just their office within the buikding.

Everthing just reinforces the original point. Their underachievement/mismanagment created their predicament. Their lack of success necessitate tennancy instead of ownership. Uninspired performance allows them to inconvenience their employees (you). Their lack of concerne for your basic saftey(your helmet and jacket) and their elective non performance (did not recall the building owner and notify him of the situation, instead stood about with their thumbs up their...)takes chances with your future well being. Working for anyone with such little regard for their employees is not conducive for success.(yours)

They did try to call building management, but since it was 7:30PM on a Friday no one answered. They even offered to buy me an Uber to get me home but I didn't want to leave my bike there overnight.

It really was weird that they didn't have after hours access to the building, but I think this will be the catalyst for them to get on the building manager for a new key.

That sucks. If you we're in CA you could not have ridden home without your helmet. That would have sucked more.

It's true Sash Walker, that's why I am still surprised that riders still leave their helmets, even sometimes jackets out in their bikes. It must be a "hip" thing to some. I don't get it.

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p <==edited to add the correct link Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
