How do you keep up workouts while injured or sick? I feel like everytime stuff like this happens, I drop off and am unable to bounce back.

Was on a call today with colleagues and they were all commiserating about childcare costs rising, daycares closing unexpectedly, sick kids, and pregnancy pains. I just smirked the whole time and thought “wow that blows… I’ll keep you in my thoughts/prayers while my husband and I are in Costa Rica for a long weekend next week. Byeeeee” ✌🏻 🇨🇷

"When you get on the airplane, you better be rooting for the success of the pilot." AKA classic. I wonder if my main man Jamie goes to bed thinking about sick quotes he can use the next day.

I'm done with this app. People are talking about that parents don't have the right to know if their kid wants to be called by a different pronoun and keeping things from parents. Makes me sick. I told them they're all fucked in the head. So I'll be booted soon. Good knowing some of you. Peace.

Hi everyone,
I've been working as a contract TAS
for 6 months in a medical device
company. I started part time and as
it became busier/my trainer quit, I
became full-time. I applied for the
TA position through corporate and
would like some insight. the
company is short staffed and my site
specifically does not have good TA
retention. For the salary expectation,
I put in 85k which is in the range. I'm
currently at 64k which is below the
minimum of the range. Is this
realistic?

I feel disgusting. Team had a bowling team outing and the boss called in sick. So some of the older guys took over and ordered all the crap disgusting bowling ally food that my inner 12 yo always wanted. Pizza, chicken fingers, nachos, basically if it’s served in a middle America run of the mill bowling alley - they ordered it. And so many pitchers of beer.

And I let my inner 12 yo go nuts. But my 40 yo stomach is paying for it.

Tomorrow I may turn into a massive zit and ball of heartburn.

With the recent excitement for a return to travel, how are the working parents managing this balance ? I don’t mind occasional travel for a meaningful reason but feel that my team are grabbing at any excuse because they miss getting together. It’a a tricky balance for me with childcare being more unreliable than ever. Daycares have stricter sick policies and shorter hours and nannies appear to be unreliable for actually showing up in recent months. Am I alone in this work travel anxiety?

Curious what firms are doing to keep people socializing during COVID. I miss my coworkers but I'm sick of zoom calls.

Hello Fish Family, any advice for what intermittent fasting app to use?
And more broadly, have you seen good results from IF - fat loss and how you feel overall?
Thank you!

Due to colder weather, I've been running on the treadmill instead of outdoors, but I find I get warmer/sweatier indoors (maybe because no breeze?). I've been getting an itchy, red rash on the front of my neck after every session. I think it's maybe heat, maybe salt from sweat.

Does anyone have any advice?
