First, a follow-up on the Chris Rock/Will Smith Oscars thing… Chris Rock said he didn’t know Jada had alopecia (why she’s bald) when he told the joke. The Academy announced they are reviewing what to do about Smith — and then (and only then) he apologized to Rock via Instagram. I might’ve drank the kool-aid if Smith didn’t include an excuse directly after saying his behavior was inexcusable. 😏
Onward to Sybil…
If y’all are old, you remember the 1975 film called Sybil. It starred Sally Field and Joanne Woodward and was about a woman with 16 distinct personalities. I don’t have 16 personalities yet, but I’m working on it.
I’m running into my first “I hate this shit” on my Samsung phone and watch and it’s because of Google. My Samsung account — the one I purchased my new phone with — is my work email address. It’s managed by our work domain… ME! Since it’s a managed account, Samsung requires that it be put on the phone as a “work profile.” BUT, the other email accounts also managed by that same domain can’t be added.
You can only add one work profile to this device.
Samsung
Fine. I can’t check the email for scheduling@, or team@, on the same phone I check my personal/work email. That sucks. What also sucks is I can’t add or check another email account for a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th of our work domains that also use Google for Business.
And I’m not lying.
Sybil — the book and movie that followed — was about Shirley Mason. After the book sold 6 million copies and the movie was popular, ole’ Shirley admitted that the personalities were merely lies to get emotional and financial support from her psychiatrist, Wilber.
My multiple personalities are all real. They are all separate and distinct versions of yours truly. “Work me” keeps contacts and passwords a secret from every single other “me.”
If only I could keep work and personal stuff so separate in REAL LIFE!! 🙂
And then, there’s this…
