you should give all your reports gifts around the same cost regardless of their performance, and you should mentor your reports to become better performers. you’re their manager, you have more impact over their performance than anyone.

I just got called about a job on Thursday, showing interest. They’re already back in the office so the job would require me to be. Said they’re classified as an essential business because most of their advertising is for healthcare. Is this a hard red flag? Really Seems like it.
