PERSONAL
Had a hell of a birthday weekend!!!
Friday (my actual birthday): lunch with the wifey…made homemade Biscoff banana cream pie. Unreal.
Saturday: got to watch my boys compete. Nothing better than seeing them go after it.
Then we went all-you-can-eat sushi and I ate WAY too much. Like…regret level.
Sunday was a lowkey Super Bowl day, which is always a good time. Made wings. DUH.
Big proud dad moment too: Lincoln got promoted up a tier in soccer training for February. He’s been pushing hard for it, and the hard work is paying off. That’s the lesson we want our boys to live by… keep putting in the work, give it time, be patient, and it’ll show up.
Also… it was 60 degrees yesterday and it’s February. This is the year, I can feel it!!!
And watching Drake alum Eric Saubert win the Lombardi was special!!!
WHAT I’M SEEING
1) Super Bowl halftime shows are basically a national stress test now
It’s amazing how fast people turn music into politics… and then act shocked when everybody’s pissed.
Personally… Bad Bunny (in my opinion) brought together a cultural hit. And even though I don’t understand Spanish, I understood the message: pride, love for your people, and don’t shrink yourself to make strangers comfortable.
2) People are losing jobs. Period.
Hiring has slowed and layoffs are getting loud again. So yeah… if you’ve felt uneasy lately, you’re not imagining it.
What does this mean? It means you don’t get to move like it’s 2021 anymore. You need a plan that assumes disruption is normal.
3) The job market is cooling, even if it doesn’t look like a meltdown
This is the part most people miss. It can be “fine” on paper while still getting harder in real life.
Job openings are down. Quits are down. That means workers feel less confident, and employers feel more in control. This is that “low hire, low fire” vibe.
