8 weeks later and I am still testing positive for covid. But since I am symptom free for over 3 weeks I can return back to work. They say I am not contagious...i do have antibodies. But I am still nervous about spreading it.

What are your healthy-living while traveling advice? I was a college athlete and went from working out 40 hours a week to working on a computer 65+

I found the D.C. Mayors Vaccine Website unhelpful, so was able to easily book an appointment directly through Walgreens. I haven’t been notified that I’m eligible by my D.C. registration yet, despite the fact that I should be. Will I need a code or anything for my appointment, or can I just go? I don’t really get the point of registering on the D.C. website, feels like an extra hoop to jump through.

A lot of the dogs I see for digestive issues turn out to have food allergies. People would be doing themselves (and their pets) a real favor if they just kept track of what their dogs were eating, it’d narrow down the foods for allergy testing

5/17 check in! What’s your work out for today?

Hi Fishes,

My colleague's younger sister is looking for a job as a fresher. She has recently graduated (B.com) and is pursuing US CMA. She's also done a couple of internships and is highly proactive and motivated. The family has been struggling to meet the ends specially due to Covid Pandemic.

Tried applying via Naukri and LinkedIn but there's hardly any response.
Can someone please refer her in their organization for a relevant role for a B.Com graduate. DM me for more details.

TIA

Alright women folk- best way to go about announcing a pregnancy in the workplace?

I’m almost 300 pounds. I lost weight and gained it all back and more. It would help me if I can get a buddy to keep tabs on me. I will do the same for you

Had a minor back injury (should heal on its own) but I don’t think sitting in an office chair all day is helping. Any ideas to make it more bearable?

I’m nervous about missing out on the post-Covid stock boom. Any tips on name brand stocks or ETFs I should look at? I have about 20k to invest. 🙏 Thanks

I work out every day, typically between 30-70 minutes (sometimes even 2-a-days) mixing in cardio/weight training/hybrid and have been doing so for the past 3 years consistently. Additionally, I eat minimal/no gluten (sensitivity) and absolutely no dairy (allergy) yet can’t seem to lose weight. Granted, with my clothes on, I feel like I look fine, but feel as if something is missing. Any advice or am I being too hard on myself ?

Anyone else at a firm so rooted in the past that you’re embarrassed explaining it to other attorneys?

Example: We are 10 months into COVID and my firm still hasn’t decided on/implemented a video meeting platform (Zoom, Teams, etc.). So if I want to have a video meeting I have to ask the other party to use their video services. And it’s not at all a funding issue.

EY ladies, did insurance require you to transfer all frozen embryos before doing a second egg retrieval? Would like to freeze as many as possible now but WinFertility nurse said it would be difficult to get another retrieval approved before using all embryos first

How did you find medication that worked for you? Please share your experiences or lessons learned. My pcp recommended a neurologist and I am not sure it is working.

I didn’t have the egg retrieval yet, but the IVF nurse that called me to give instructions happened to be someone I know personally. Is it possible to request to change the IVF nurse? I don’t feel comfortable with this person being present during my egg retrieval. Our interactions will be so awkward afterwards. What is the chance that happens? Such a small world

Hi All, Do we get Diwali gifts from EY?

Been a while since I’ve dated.. started talking to someone.. things were going well... then text responses went from timely to 4-5 hours. Should I move on? No need to add this to list of overthinking..

How do you stay motivated day-to-day when the work gets boring? I'm a first-year associate who was assigned a long-term project with no deadlines. I'm struggling to bill 8 hours/day on this incredibly repetitive project.
