I don't have any resources to offer, but I lost my mom several years ago to cancer. Saying it's tough doesn't even begin to cover it. Surround yourself with a good support network, even if it's just a few close friends that can let you grieve however you grieve. Also, spend whatever time you can with your dad. Wishing you and your family the best during these awful times.

I have a wonderful friend who lost their husband and had a grief counselor. I can ask her who she used. She is in Chicago but I don’t know about the counselor. I’ll message you.

Thank you! That’d be helpful.

Curious what anyone thinks about cologne? Is it a turn on? I am not really into it.. but I just got a whiff of this dude at the gym and the cologne did something to me 🥰 It was really subtle. I tend to just like the way a man smells (not body odor but just natural scent) and don’t usually like it covered up, but wow this guy tonight 🥵 I might might buy some but i figured it would be gay to ask him “what are you wearing” because that prob isn’t something the bros at the gym do.

I have been with the company for six years now starting as lead graphic designer working my way to the production manager. since becoming the production manager two years ago I am responsible for 4 large format printers and 1 vinyl plotter.

I know everyone has a different kind of setup that works for them. I currently have a laptop, drawing pad, second monitor, and a desk riser.

My employer is based in China, while I am in France. I remotely manage a global sales team, with team members from around the globe. They all work remotely as well.

Being remote, and managing an international remote team, I would like to know what should be my job title? Any idea or professionals that I may contact, please?

Thank you.
