I have one in my building and tbh, I use it like twice a week. The workouts all feel the same (regardless of switching coaches)

I have one. I don’t *love* it. In my ideal world, I’d go to a gym or trainer that only gives me awesome playlists, great workouts and coaching, and switches things up daily (spin, bootcamp, yoga, pilates on reformer, running, rowing, swimming, etc.). My unrealistic expectations aside, having the Peloton has allowed a lot of flexibilty and the app for doing other workouts helps break up the monotony. I had the v3 peloton (I think) and just got the Peloton+. I would definitely recommend spending the extra few hundred on the plus.

In saying all that, no, I don’t regret getting the Peloton.

I had a failed natural FET in Sep & did a mock transfer 2 weeks ago (HFET). Results came back Receptive. I got my period 2 days after stopping the PIO. RE mentioned I can start embryo transfer this week & did not need to wait for my next cycle. My periods are not always regular, so I like the idea of not waiting for them to start but also nervous if this could impact the embryo transfer as it would not follow the same timeline as that of the mock cycle. Anyone try this approach with success?

It’s my second week at this job, was given an assignment to submit jobs into the MLR review system.

Now MLR team asked us to follow the guidelines, and my boss is throwing me under the bus for not “opening” the jobs correctly. I am already breaking down and think I’m a failure, but some people think I’m not being set up for success. Should I move jobs?

Hi Fishes, I need some help.
So I've got the offer letter from Genpact today, but I have to send the required docs and BGV should happen and then in 3-4 days they might send Joining/Appointment letter.
So my doubt is, shall I inform the current Consultancy that I'm rejecting their offer? Or shall I wait till I get the appointment letter from Genpact and then inform the consultancy?
It's already been 15+ days since I've joined the company via consultancy.
PS: I have just joined on 3rd Feb on C2H

Every post or comment I see like "the left is terrifying", "the left is scary" or "the left is frightening", etc makes me wonder why are Conservatives such gluttons for fear?

How can you be both the harbingers of freedom and so afraid of everything?

How to deal with an overly paranoid family member? I've been working from my parents place for the past month and my brother recently came home for the holidays. Out of all of us, my brother is the most cautious, but to the point where he is paranoid. Like, he will wear 2 masks, doesn't see anyone, uses hand sanitizer after touching anything (like his shoelace), and doesn't use grocery store baskets (holds everything). I respect his habits and I've been pretty cautious (cont. in comments)
