Hours move one way on purpose — off the site, into work that pays remotely.
The deliberate shift of hours away from landscaping toward remote-paid work like the Unite for Rights role.
It isn't a job hunt with a finish line. The thing being moved is a share — what proportion of the week's hours comes from remote-paid work — and a share moves slowly, in both directions. That is why it gets a scoreboard instead of a deadline.
The scoreboard is the dashboard's remote-paid share of hours tile: one reading that tells the truth about the transition whatever any given week felt like.
Four threads are open at once — an expansion of the Unite for Rights retainer, applications into Anthropic, a streaming channel sketched as a public audition, and a meeting at a stone yard in Richmond where the landscaping work is the credential rather than the thing being escaped.
None of them has closed. Everything on this page is a thread that has been started, not a result.
Four threads, all open.
The retainer expansion
An expansion email to Unite for Rights is drafted; the scope-led variant is the recommended one.
Applications, with a kit
Solutions Architect and Applied AI applications are in at Anthropic, submitted with a full kit.
A public audition
A "Free AI Solutions Architect" streaming channel, sketched as a concept: an audition format that happens in public.
American Soil and Stone
A meeting is secured in Richmond, positioned on trades and landscape credibility. A Lovable prototype of their site was built about eight months earlier.
