2022 has been absolutely flying by.

Zero complaints there.

Dad had come down and visited back in the middle of June, and it's already a few days shy of August. Crazy how quickly time flies when you stop actively tracking it.

On the work front, I've recently been gifted with the chance to spearhead some pretty substantial migrations thanks to the Flank Speed initiative. Moving our home and share drives to a Microsoft-powered cloud service is pretty amazing stuff, and definitely nothing I would've ever expected to see during my time in the Navy.

Goes without saying, though, that there are plenty of folks that are entirely resistant to the change. Either because they don't care, or because they've grown entirely dependent on an old, deprecated system.

It also goes without saying that when you use "this will allow you to telework more effectively", it's not exactly a selling point.

I can kinda understand the hesitance, but at the same time... it gives people more flexibility for a vast swath of things we'd normally need to be physically present for.

In other news, went and submitted my Fleet Reserve request again. August of 2024, you can't come soon enough.
