Do you ever think about how your life might be different if Covid had never happened? Like, if my active social life didn't come to an abrupt end and traded for a life of solitude and remote work, how would I be different now? ...Anyone? Just me?

Honestly to me it was a godsend! As an introvert, remote work and staying home was the best thing to happen! This call back to the office has done nothing but give me great anxiety, depression, and so much more… I want a full time a time remote job as this fighting with my employer over the constant call back to the office and changing the hybrid work from home and seeing it dwindle each year as I know that they want us there 5 days a week… it’s a nightmare!

I would be stuck doing audit and be on the koolaid train. Covid and remote work changed everything.

I don’t really think about it for me but I think about how it affected my son and kids his age (he was in 5th grade at the time). It was some of the best times being home and together every day, but I can’t help but think how much they missed out on being homeschooled for almost 2 years.

How are you guys thinking about booking appointments for 1st time H1B stamping? Every time I open the site, there are no slots available for 2022. I’m sure majority of you have faced the same. Also, heard that some people have reached out to agents and got their booking done via them. Is that even a safe option? At this point of time, having being waiting for appointments for months, I wonder if there’s any other option ?
