My bank just sent out an email today stating that they will be delaying the return to office until late October. Thank goodness, more time to find another fully remote role..lolol

I mean the date we tentatively had was Labor Day, right? And they even seemed to walk that back a bit.

I’d say no worries. Particularly if you want to work from home, I don’t think anyone will resist your request if you frame it logically. (E.g. my productivity is great, I have children who can’t get vaccinated, and my client work is not on-site so minimal benefit from the additional risk and time investment)

We’ve not yet returned to the office, I haven’t heard we’re expected to. Given schools will likely need to quarantine, etc. it will likely need to remain flexible for the foreseeable future.

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.
