My spouse and I are both WFH b/c of virus for the next few weeks. I’m most productive when it’s silent. But whenever I do this at home, she thinks I’m ignoring her. Anyone else have a similar issue?

What are your honest thoughts on cover letters - are they outdated, or even relevant at this point? Do you look at them?

Need advice on side hustles and PT gigs. I work FT, my wife runs her own business PT while caring for our kids, and we are STILL living paycheck to paycheck. Combined we make over $80k/yr, but it's still tight. My wife is saying she can go back to work FT and shut down her biz, but a) I know this would make her unhappy, b) we want to prioritize our time with our kids before they start going to school, and c) we already pay for PT daycare and it's EXPENSIVE. FT is outrageous. Thoughts?

Anybody know any good tech companies that are hiring at the moment? Current company I am at is going down the drain fast due to poor leadership and financial decisions. I’m open to options….

I have no idea what this site is really but despite liking where I work , having my own office , great hours etc - the money just doesn’t cut it . We make association based magazines - 20% for new business , 15 % contracts and maybe 10 if I cut a deal - but they aren’t audited publications and only range from 1-4 issues per year - I’ve consistently finished 2nd in overall sales for over half a decade now at least - but I think I might have made just over 50k on my best year . I mean I’m as good

We all love to hate on billable hours. What’s a real, feasible alternative???

Small agency owner 🙋🏻‍♂️ I’ve wracked my brain and have 3 biz model options, none great:

Billable hrs: Generally accepted. We all know the downsides.

Pay4performance: Big upside potential, tons of risks.

Project pricing: Cloak for billable hours. You have to estimate project cost with something.

Who’s thought of a better approach??? Genuinely curious if there is one.

To those who are married or getting married soon — did you take your husband/partner’s last name? If so, did you drop the maiden name completely or hyphenate it? I know this is now somewhat of an “ancient” concept and a lot of women choose to keep their names nowadays. I’m leaning towards hyphenating so that when we have children I still have the family name but just curious to see what the thought process was if you kept your last name or dropped it.
