unlocked some new levels of partial train replacement bus chaos/angst this week!
day 1: not enough signage or staff to find the train replacement bus stop on the way to work. Decided to enjoy Werribee for a bit on my way home and spent so long enjoying the birds and trees at dusk 🦜🌳 that I ended up with extra train replacement buses that were on that night.
day 2: went smoothly. Much better signage and staff numbers!
day 3: train delays due to track fault
day 4: extra train replacement buses due to train track vandalism 😭 😴

there's nothing like an EndNote query just before 5pm on a Friday to remind me how much I love Zotero 🥲
on a related note, I am occasionally tempted to create a bot that pops up every time someone goes to download EndNote and asks something like "Are you sure? Have you tried Zotero?" 🤖🤭
