I don't have COVID, I'm new to the city and I am off of work for the 25th and 26th. I'm down to meet up and meet some new people. We could set up a meeting place for tomorrow afternoon or evening and have a nice Christmas dinner. Anyone game?

My symptoms started Tuesday, got tested yesterday. Did both and they said since the rapid test came back positive (I waited until we got the results), no need to send out the PCR. I’m counting from Monday/Tuesday.

Yeah same boat here. New here without much friends. Want to hang with new people but everyone either has friend groups or just in relationship. Sad life :)

This may be an unpopular opinion.

But I think it's kinda shitty that when FAANG people get laid off, everyone feels bad for them and they get so many resources to get rehired, but the same is not true for people that get laid off at smaller lesser known organizations.

Like those FAANG people will be fine, they got generous severance packages. The people who actually need help often get overlooked or are forgotten.
