COVID clock is running faster these day. How do you think it hurts going back to normal? Will we travel again anytime soon?

Vaccine and effective treatment is going to determine when “normal’ happens. There is no other metric

It always cracks me up to see consultants asking other consultants when we expect a public health crisis to be resolved.

As if we have secret information that epidemiologists, politicians, and vaccine researchers don’t, or that we can dictate when our clients want us back.

But I will add: ubiquitous, rapid testing and lower community spread could see us getting back to normal before a vaccine becomes commonplace.

Summer 2021 at best

The kind of travel we were doing is a thing of the past but I’m sure your CALs will try to get us back on-site.

It’s not going to go back to normal like that. Been going back onsite since May. It’s a phased approach for jobs and riddled with error.

I do “sensitive” work. I don’t have to travel. The site I work at is 15 mins from my house.

Due in 2 weeks with baby number two, husband just tested positive for Covid 😩 He’s been around me and our 2 year old the past 2 days, getting PCRs for me and my LO tomorrow.

Looking for some encouragement everything will work out okay. This is crazily the first time we’ve had it!

Any good detox diets that good to try out and not horrroble for your body? I want to curb some sugar cravings and bad eating habits over the past year. Has anyone done one they liked?

Then just stop eating like a complete child on holiday after those are done 😅 any advice on what helped you get past the cravings and level set would be helpful!

Ok so. I have been on this journey for almost a year now to try and 'get to know and love myself' and I'm not there yet. I separated from my ex in March of 2020 and divorce was finalized in October 2020. I'm still sad, lost, angry etc. I'm trying/tried therapy, meditation, ayurveda, self help videos, books, but I'm not happy with myself and I don't think I know myself. I want to be happy alone before I meet anyone new. Any tips or advice on how I can effectively accomplish this? Thank you!

I was working at a Hotel one night & I saw a man appearing on two different floors, then in the stairwell. The man was in his 70’s or 80’s. He was wearing nothing but tidy whiteys. When he got to the front desk I asked “is everything alright? Are you okay?” (Assuming he may be senile),He wasn’t senile, he went swimming & wanted to make me uncomfortable and started to flirt while in his sopping wet see through tidy whiteys- and of course I had to clean up the water he tracked through the lobby.

Ie; a part time employee getting $200.00 in a quarterly bonus and then not being scheduled a whole week during a bi-weekly pay period where they would have earned more on the clock…?
