Starting a new thread to document the delightful things I am finding out about joining the tech team at Monterey Bay Aquarium.

@lmc I’m commuting
currently I go in once a week and stay a night but am still figuring out what I want to do. We have lots of remote tech folks but I actually enjoy spending time there -
60. here's an aquarium personality quiz from my workplace: https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/stories/exhibit-aesthetics-quiz
-
@skinnylatte "Your aesthetic is cottagecore and lush like the Kelp Forest exhibit!”
Now I need to go and lookup what cottagecore is.
-
@dan @skinnylatte I got the same. This is so cute.
-
@ShiitakeToast @dan i have the kelp forest as my official video chat background

@skinnylatte i thought this was about my home city Monterrey Nuevo León
-
@vgarzareyna i want to visit one day!
-
@skinnylatte haha! Omg. I haven’t been to Monterey in decades. I remember there used to be like maybe 12-15 sea lions that had taken over one of the docks in the marina. Nothing like this!!
wow!! That’s so wild! -
61. i've stumbled upon the 'otters and birds' 'weekly weigh-in' database
-
62. this is a pun-friendly workplace and i've been going ham.
someone was like 'what are your feelings about tacos' and i was like 'i only have taco fillings'
-
63. There is a poster in the kitchen with the little paws of some otters.
It says ‘Isn’t it PAWSOME??’ (Some free things and how to get them)
-
64. Our store has lots of animal shirts (obviously). I like the octopus one that says I’M CLINGY, the otter one that says PLAYS WELL WITH OTTERS, and the sunfish one that says HOLA MOLA

65. super cool video of octopus and the aquarist who works with them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYBFRu4gkdA
