Re: The Curmudgeons Corner

Today we were told at a staff meeting that we ought to be using Microsoft Co-Pilot (generative AI) in writing our lesson plans, in creating our assessments, and in drafting communication to parents. My principal revealed she uses it in writing her newsletter and we ought to use it for writing recomm...

This brand continues to impress me with their releases. The latest is a limited edition.

I really cannot work this out!
Work out what I mean by my question or work out what we’re seeing with the lume?

From the article that was shared, it sounds like the lume is actually blue, not simply glowing blue.

The rippled dial is beautiful! Hard pass on the blue lume, though.

Re: I need some positive energy

Thank you all for the kind and helpful thoughts. As Lindsey says, I need to let go of a lot at work. I’ve made considerable progress on this front, but it’s hard to go “all in” with it. To stop caring completely to ride out the last three months feels like a betrayal of what I spent the last 30 year...

Looks like everyone might need to recalibrate their GMTs and world timers! :lol:

I need some positive energy

Hi all. I’m struggling today and just need some good vibes. Almost reached a breaking point at school. I thought I was going to lose it and have to call someone down to my room. I swear, I don’t know if I’ll make it until the end of the year. Some days it feels like I’m losing my mind. It’s just awf...

Re: March 20th Event - Texas

Hey JK Barnes, Short answer is that I live here but on a more strategic level, we could move to NY or LA and go where everyone else is but I want to grow from the middle outwards. Its an easy place to get to and to get out of with lots of logistical partners for future growth plus the BBQ isnt too ...

Re: March 20th Event - Texas

What an exciting development, on many levels! This is likely the first, last, and only time I’ve wished I lived in Texas.

On a serious note @MikePearson55, how did CW settle on North Dallas as a location for an office and boutique?

Re: CW in DC and where to next here in North America ...

Man, I wish I’d taken a brief moment to introduce myself on Sunday, Mike! It was so packed, I didn’t even think of striking up a conversation. Not that you’ll remember, but I had asked if you had the new 36mm Sealander GMT on hand. I actually asked if the 39mm GMT was a 36mm! That 39mm wears smaller...
