Not fantastic sound quality. Great functionality .

Sound quality isn’t amazing (for someone who uses audeze), but for conference calls, highly functional

Hi all,

Looking to sublet my Southport apartment (entire unit) from July 1 through November 31. 2BR / 1BA, shared backyard, nice neighbors, great landlord. Subletting for $1,500 a month. Utilities (gas+electric+internet) are ~$150 a month. Minutes away from Southport strip including the brown line, plus Target, Jewel, etc on Ashland.

It’s an amazing unit - we bought a house otherwise we would rent this apartment forever! DM if you’re interested and I can send pics / show the place.

Can anyone please suggest 1/2 BHK in DLF phase 2, Gurgaon? Or give contact details of broker that may help...Thanks in advance!

For those who already have a baby - I (36f) just had a baby 6 weeks ago, and my wife (33F) is now back at work (WFH) and I’m still on leave. Since I have the baby all day and get up with her all night, my wife basically “takes over” baby duty when she stops working. The problem is that within an HOUR she has lost all patience with the baby. She gets frustrated so quickly if the baby is crying and will say things like “I’m just going to let her cry since nothing im doing helps” (cont)

Telco PMs, how do you call that type of project in which you manage the End-To-End deployment? I mean from planning the electric connections for a servers rack, engineering the network, the cabling and devices installation, setting up the link (and everything in between)?

English is not my first language and I'm having trouble coming up with what we call "Llave en Mano" in Spanish... or is it just End-To-End? My mind is fried and is only Wednesday.

Thanks!

Unrelated to work, but still steaming from earlier. Walked to the locker service room to pick up my packages. You have to walk through the mail room first. Ive lived at this apt complex for 2 yrs and have seen dozens of different usps employees. Today, there happened to be one who was blocking the door with his cart that had the communities mail. As soon as I opened the door, in a rude voice he says, come back in 30 min. I said, I’m sorry I cant which was true. Not only was I in a time crunch
