Could be worst OP, you could stuck trying to get home, rather than being on PTO. Enjoy another drink and hang in there.

Is the storm supposed to be fine by tomorrow?

What airport you at?

Delayed 6 hours this morning. Wasn’t even that bad of a storm

4 hr Delays at Tampa

ATL of course! But it could be worse, I could be in the podunk airport I originated in that had exactly one food option and no bar!

hiya fishes. happy friday! sorry if this isnt the right bowl, but this is in regards to vacation time. i have an interview process starting next week, and wondering when it would be good to mention i would be OOO between the middle of the month in september? its for a week. im unsure if i can twist this to have a start date once im back. going back and forth on being transparent vs. mentioning it later on. thoughts?

I have a Q that I worry is going to make me sound like a jerk, but want some opinions. I do strength training 2x/wk with a trainer who was assigned to me at a gym where I bought a pack of sessions. I don’t really consider myself “his” client bc the relationship is managed by the gym… but lately he keeps saying like “I can’t wait to see what my clients give me for Christmas” and I find it super awkward. I pay $150 per session for these workouts (cont’d in comments)…
