I was taken out of the running for not interviewing in person for a remote position 🙃 the gaslighting is real. I feel absolutely insane for holding my ground.

My agency just went ahead and went full remote.

It’s quite simply not worth the risk, my kids start school Monday, one in high school and one in elementary — so we already risk a lot at home with those two exposures, and if I went into an office then everyone there would be risking it too along with theirs that they are also sharing. Compounded risk.

Wait who in the world is even going into an office?!? Did that seriously start back up?! People at the top are crazy for insisting that even a few months ago.

Hello Everyone,

I am in search of a Project Manager role. I have about 4 + years experience managing projects and in consulting.

I am about concluding the google certificate in project management, and one unique think I bring into any team is my strategic thinking and ability to solve problems in record time.

I anticipate your responses and recommendations thank you very much.

Yesterday, we officially released the first version of Critter, a new app for iOS & Android geared toward pet owners/people who help take care of your pets. The basic idea is to make it simple to manage and share pet care with a mobile platform for tracking and communicating care updates.

It’s simple: add your pets. Invite people who help with their care (family, friends, professionals). Build a care plan. Track and share updates/pics/docs/etc.
