St. Catharines, 2022.08.11

I started working remotely, today. Very, very remotely. My job's in Tokyo and I'm in the small city of St. Catharines, Ontario. I put in a ten hour day between the 400++ emails, the IMs, and a couple of meetings in the late evening. This is going to be a hard way to go.

The irritating thing about this is the requirement for a negative PCR test when we clearly brought the virus with us from Japan. The day we left, Japan officially had 240,000 new cases and Canada had 5,000. Let's not pretend that we dirty foreigners are the problem here. (Is it we or "us".)
