Computer related:
- Don’t be your family computer savy guy, you just found yourself a bunch payless jobs…
- Long desks are cool and all, but the amount the space they occupy is not worth it.
- Block work related phone calls at weekends, being disturbed at your leisure for things that could be resolved on Mondays will sour your day.
Buying stuff:
- There is expensive because of brand and expensive because of material quality, do your research.
- Buck buying is underrated, save yourself a few bucks, pile that toilet paper until the ceiling is you must.
- Second hand/broken often means never cleaned, lubricated or with easy fixable problem.
Memento mori.
I usually twist this into “memento mori, quoque uiuere” (remember [that you’ll] die, also [that you’ll] live).
Like, not trying to become worm food full of regrets is nice and dandy, but remember that you’ll suffer the consequences of a few of your actions while you’re still alive.
