Army Reserve here. Thinking about ditching firm provided health insurance for Tricare Reserve Select. Wife currently undergoing treatment for stage 3 breast cancer, so I'm naturally reticent about messing with health stuff.

Any opinions one way or the other?

Well, you need to wait until open enrollment before you can switch. You can call them and ask. Do that due diligence and explain the full situation. When I was at Booz, I never did the firm insurance FWIW

I have a question for people in recovery. If a brand were to contend that sobriety is a spectrum, or allow for that to a least be part of the conversation, how does that make you feel? Are other brands doing a good job of being inclusive of people who are truly sober?
(I get that NA drinks / spirits can be triggering for people in recovery)
Thank you.

Hello Fishes, I am on my notice period with 20 days remaining. Having Total YOE as 6 years in Insurance Broking and claims. Looking for opportunities in operations (Back office, Middle office and front office). Please let me know if any openings available for me. Also ex cognizant employee.

Going back to in-person learning has been quite a challenge. We have 4 in-person and 8 virtual. The 4 in-person have done as well as to be expected, however their behaviors have been less than desired. One is being considered for going back to virtual due to behaviors. It's next to impossible to expect them to keep masks on and when they do, they're usually nasty or wet. I have PPEs but things do happen in the spur of the moment and it's hard to stop and put on gloves and such.

Googling ADHD today (I’m having a distracted day) and super frustrated because I’m realizing that I was likely misdiagnosed as depressed for years. I was taking SSRIs and dealing with awful side effects while I struggled for so long. I finally got an official diagnosis about 10 years ago but was never taught the symptoms or how to manage them. Found you tube channel ADDitutde magazine. Several really good presentations with recent developments Thought I’d share.

So my unit (USAR) is doing in person Battle Assembly. Here's the crazy: Its a MUTA-8, so we all show up on Thursday at 0600. Half of us go to the range, half of us stay in the Reserve Center to do administrative tasks.
We flip that on Friday.

On Saturday, those that went to the range on Thursday come in, and they do virtual battle assembly on the Sunday. Flip that for those who went to the range on Friday.
Unit is in MD, I live in VA, range is in VA, and mo buses, so I cross the bridge 4x

So how do you balance it when you have a job leader and a unit commander who are both dicks about working with you to help balance the two commitments?

So what would you all like to see in this bowl?
