Felt a connection

ਧੂੜਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਨਸਦੇ ਸੀ
ਮਿੱਟੜੀ ਦੇ ਜਾਏ ਹਾਂ
ਅਰਸ਼ਾਂ ਵੱਲ ਨਜ਼ਰਾਂ ਨੇ
ਜੂਹਾਂ ਛੱਡ ਆਏ ਹਾ

ਰੋਹੀਆਂ ਦੇ ਵਾਸੀ ਸਾਂ
ਬਾਗਾਂ ਦੀ ਲੋੜ ਨਹੀਂ
ਕਿੱਕਰਾਂ ਦੇ ਜਾਇਆਂ ਨੂੰ
ਕੰਡਿਆਂ ਦੀ ਤੋੜ ਨਹੀਂ

Anybody else noticed recruiters are only proactively reaching out about hybrid/on-site roles nowadays?

It's almost as if people don't want to be in offices anymore so that's why it's difficult for them to fill those roles.
Sidenote: recruiters, you can see on my LI profile that I'm remote. In the "What jobs are you interested in" field you can see I'm only interested in remote roles.
So, why are you reaching out to me about jobs in a city 3 hours away that's 100% onsite and w/out even a ReLo?

Please, I need your opinion on this. I have 6 years of experience as a software developer and just finished my masters degree in data science. Now I am looking for a job here in the US. I went through the hiring process with this company and finally got an offer. They offered 88k/year and I responded opening a negotiation. They emailed me back saying that I am no longer in this process anymore with no further explanation and in Thanksgiving day. Is that normal?that email really got me very upset

Any advice on how to tastefully tell your manager that you no longer want to be a charge nurse anymore? For us being in charge is having full assignment 3p-7p & being responsible for assigning pts , communicating w/ supervisor about various issues, making the assignment for next shift, and a mini report about each pt for the next charge. On the weekends, same responsibilities but 7a-7p. We don't get any additional pay for being in charge and I'm sick of the added responsibility and stress of it.

Any book recommendations? Preferably shorter < 300
