Having a dog is the best thing that could have happened during covid. Keeps me company, and also gets me outside for walks

How much time per week does everyone spend in the office (not so much a billables question, just time in the office pre-COVID orders)?

Thoughts from any insiders at havas? Is there appetite for good work, how has the agency adjusted to COVID, are there any new openings on accounts?

“Let’s postpone this meeting for two weeks. I’ve been tested positive for COVID”

We’re all working remotely and I’ve faced this situation 6 times as it is. Y’all wild but stay safe!!!

Currently not ADD but I do have severe narcolepsy with cataplexy. Everyday I wake up feeling like I haven’t slept 3 days. Cataplexy is sudden loss of muscle tone. Currently on Adderall for it and have been for 5 years. Without it and my ven. I collapse 10-20 times a day. My doctor has left the practice and replacement asshole with a Ph.d says I need a new sleep study and won’t prescribe my prescription until I have it done. I am Covid pos and now can’t get in to get a sleep study. Am I fucked?

China has implemented mandatory anal Covid tests for foreign visitors. This seems extremely woke, since anal tests are more accurate than nasal, and I think we should implement this back home in USA. Like for people who go to the store or gym, just a quick butt test to keep people safe. Thoughts?

Any parents here? How did you originally explain the Covid pandemic to your children?

I moved out of NYC right before COVID, but I realized I don’t like the city I moved to because it’s too small. Would it be crazy to move back to NYC right now? Saving money has been nice for a change but really missing NYC

Side gigs. What do you do to supplement your income (besides marry for money)? I bartender but that’s taken a hit with Covid. Thinking about some kind of tutoring set up.

I had to reject an offer from a company last year due to COVID concerns and not being able to relocate. Would it be a bad idea to reach out and inquire about it again?

As an Asian American, have you experienced bias this year that you believe was related to coronavirus?

After 10 years of working as a FTE PM/producer I’ve now been laid off (thanks Covid) and am looking to start freelancing for the first time. What advice do you have for a new freelance PM/producer?
Also, what kind of insurance do you take out as a freelancer?

I think it's easy to blame the increasing rates of COVID-19 in the community on people not wearing masks. Personally, I blame it on the glaring failure of the federal and state government and the public health system in the USA.

Masks at open houses?

With flu season (and COVID season?) just around the corner, I’m thinking of asking buyers to mask up at showings. Good idea or am I going overboard?

Are 401k’s really worth investing in these days? What are the % returns you guys have been seeing for the last few years? For those that have been working before 2008, how much of an impact did the housing crash have on 401k and how much did the recent COVID pandemic affect it?

Hello all, I'm a very green attorney, never tried a single case or even was second or third chair, but managed to land a litigation associate position at a Plaintiff's firm. Does anyone remember their first trial? How did you feel and how did it turn out by comparison? Anything you wish you did differently?
I know in THEORY what the process of trials are but thanks to COVID I haven't been able to observe them in real life so I'm very nervous for the day I finally enter a courtroom.

Is Gary Vee still saying that all of their layoffs were not covid related? Vayner folks, is that true?

I was just laid off due to COVID. Felt invincible when the crisis began but now feel lost as if my career was ripped out with the tide. Slowly gaining motivation to get back on top

Any recs for relatively affordable low-key trainers/gyms/programs around? I gained the COVID 50 (ugh) and am pretty embarrassed about my current shape so I don’t want to jump into a full group fitness class just yet. I’d like to start with some solo workouts but still have the accountability of a group fitness like Orange Theory (which I was pretty into pre-COVID). Also “affordable” meaning I can basically use the annual $1k fitness subsidy we get from Uncle D and pay minimal out of pocket.

I and my boyfriend have been dating over a year now. Our relationship in general is pretty smooth and sweet. The only problem is he has not come out to his parents yet. It was not an issue before the pandemic thing since we were just living in the city, being in our own bubble. But Covid happened and he moved back to stay with his dad. Since he is not out, he can’t pick up the phone call whenever I call him, he can’t tell his parents he is dating someone in the city. Cont.

So. I've been a Clinical Research Associate for a little over two years making $25.50 an hour. But with my company's CRA shortage and the fact that they are working to the bone, I'm ready to ask for a raise. What percent should I shoot for?

Is bank interest riba?

I have been researching into this these days and there is literature that shares how lending worked in pre-Islamic Arabia. When the time to pay back a loan came, the lender would ask "would you pay or will you increase?" And that increase was usually doubling the loan. Subsequently ever year the loan wasn't paid it was doubled from the previous year.

Anyone else catching up on CEs while they're stuck at home?

What are you seeing in pediatric cases of covid 19?

Any idea if someone had take covesheild vaccine in India . Can they take boaster Moderna shot here

I'm seeing a lot of social media posts from medical professionals disparaging people for not wearing masks. Maybe we should direct some of our outrage at the government and public health systems that have utterly failed its citizens

Are other Docs at Teaching Hospitals experiencing Resident fatigue?

COVID makes me both relieved I don't have a kid, and also wish for a kid at the same time

Our med school is entirely from home these days. Wondering how these students are going to learn patient care

My pregnant sister thought she had COVID and her OBGYN told her it wasn't her problem!!

Seeing data that kids from disadvantated backgrounds are falling 1-2 grade levels during this. We'll feel this for years

We've started doing basic check-ins on patients through ipads, particularly for small stuff. Good way to preserve PPE

I'm overworked and I miss my family. I know some states are talking about "reopening" but I don't see an end to this.

Anyone else seeing an uptick in ED visits now? We are getting pretty busy with really sick (non-COVID) people. And A LOT of mental health patients.

My kid has started having nightmares about diseases. Never before this

One of my relatives just asked me if turmeric will defend against Covid...noooooo
