Today, just completed a task that required coordinating with a few different teams and was a known blocker for a very big project coming up fast. Got it done ahead of time.

My boss positively called me out in front of their boss and other high ranking members of the org for it with a thank you.

I've been at this team for< 2 months. from a team where the boss would take credit for everything and then ask you to explain it to him several times so he could just parrot it back to his boss even after "leading" the team for over a year.

This felt like a joy.

The non musical family guy episodes.

It's the only comedy show where there's no laugh track, loud noises, and they explain every scene as it's happening.

This has happened a lot to me. Or I just be a fan in silence.

There's a great line from the band Sloan about this that comes up whenever I hear this.

"It's not the band I hate, it's their fans"

Ah, ok. The [Show](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hitchhiker%27s_Guide_to_the_Galaxy_(TV_series) does the first two books. Not the third.

Because I remember them going to the restaurant and then meeting the hairdressers and telephone sanitizers and the mess they get the main characters into, but forgot about the Krikket/wikket people.

The BBC series does up to them being on >!prehistoric hairdresser and middle management earth!< Iirc

Which I'm pretty sure is the third book. But I haven't read it in a loooooong time.
