COT: Q is in the middle of a challenging month at work and is trying to remember the good in all situations. Not loving the work but love the people I work with. Just like F3 — I don’t always love the workout but I love the fellowship. Remember it costs nothing to be nice and can make the grind a little easier for everyone. Finally, Q’s 2024 resolution is to be more grateful and show gratitude. And with that, I appreciate and am thankful for this motley bunch. Thank you.
