      @DougNg:

      The video doesn't show but I can attest that since I started to work alone:

      1. my blood pressure is finally down to a normal level
      2. I've stopped grinding my teeth when I sleep
      3. my overall mood has improved
      4. my kitchen appliances have remained dent free

      So whatever Dr. Murthy had to say, I'm pretty much going to ignore it.

      I don't work alone, but I do for the first time work remotely. I was worried about the transition, but in the end working from home is awesome. The dog time alone is good for my mental health. I have not yet stopped grinding my damn teeth though. I'm prepared for a lecture and an attempted sale of a $1k dental guard this afternoon at the dentist.

      Academy or any sports store. Football mouth guard. ~$12. Chop the end that goes to face mask off or get one w out that piece. Been using them for grinding teeth ~30 years.  May take you a few “styles” to figure out which one you cant chomp through.

      Thanks, I thought about that–there is also an over-the-counter variant called Dentek.

      Guess I should do something before my teeth are dust.

      Think it, be it.

        I've spent much of my working life in a crane cab, I like it.

        Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
        Well, I have others.

          I actually had fractures in a bunch of my teeth because of how hard I clench my jaws

          I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

            That's how I chipped a couple of teeth, myself.

            I've used both the football style mouth guards and the ones sold in the dental section of the grocery store.  I like these somewhat minimalist ones.

            The $400 custom one from the dentist made my mouth hurt.  Of course.

              I think it's important to point out that there's a distinction between being alone and being lonely.  Everyone needs their alone time and there is nothing wrong with that as long as you are happy….

              Still trying to get this through to my wife !

                Would someone that lives in the UK be able to buy this for me from eBay (for my nephew) ? I can send money via PayPal beforehand. You can let me know what you want for shipping. It costs 15 pounds.

                I need the large one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/253436591851?rt=nc&var=552604248789&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20161006002618%26meid%3Dec224e847d924b8bbd7907649ec64d73%26pid%3D100694%26rk%3D11%26rkt%3D30%26sd%3D253436591851%26itm%3D552604248789

                For whatever reason the seller refuses any communication or shipping to the USA.

                      If youre in San Diego tomorrow I'm having a holiday party. Mostly coworkers. Funny as I got old that's who I socialize with.  Nothing too special. Just brews and foods. (if you arrive early enough)

                      Expecting nothing but appreciate anyone who shows up. Anyways DM for more info!!! Would be nice to meet another IH member. I love kids, none of my own but maybe not the best party for them.

                        Apparently my 5 yo has a “girlfriend.” It’s a classmate of his and according to him she declared this to him today and kissed him on the playground. It may sound cute and innocent but I told him it’s the school’s rule not to engage in inappropriate behavior, such as kissing. I also told him not to do it again. The last thing I need is this girl’s parents getting on my case about it. My boy was embarrassed to tell me but he said he was surprised that it happened [emoji15]

                                    Piss off.

                                    The truth is often met with anger. You can’t stop this love fest.

                                    @Matty123 I love you dude. People just don't realise that it takes so much more energy to be negative and angry than it does to be happy and content.

                                    Kindness is also often mistaken as weakness. It is possible to be compassionate and considerate and look after yourself.

                                    And the difference between feeling lonely and being alone is choice, you choose one and not the other. In my work this is an incredibly busy time of year increasingly year on year. Western societies are becoming so isolationist that people just don't know how to speak to each other with respect and consideration.

                                    I have no issue stopping and chatting with any old Joe on the street. I've learned so much from others. Inclusion is better than exclusion in my experience.
