I’m exhausted from being accessible to so many people via so many different platforms. 4-6 hours of “camera on” zooms a day + a barrage of phone calls and texts + DMs on all the different social media platforms + slack + email... i have friends who will DM me on IG while texting me, carrying on two completely different conversations. I miss having time alone with my thoughts 😂

You know you don’t have to respond to everyone right away right? For DM and IG

Or they are just too chatty 😂

I can relate...freelancing across three projects right now and am in meetings almost all day, while at the same time toggling back and forth between 3 different chat/email/calendar set ups. I hear pings all day and have to search around for where they came from

Back when I was getting started in the food world, I worked flipping burgers at In-n-Out. A man came in and said the burgers he had gotten weren’t right. He dumped the food on the counter and then he started throwing them back behind the counter. We gave him a refund and then his demeanor completely changed. He was calmer and he told us to have a great day as he left us to clean up the mess he made.

I’ll start hooking up with someone with no intention of dating them because of red flags, but if the sex is good I want to lock it down for the future (even if we are not compatible in our personality, I’ll start to see them in a positive way and flirt more since it makes the sex even better)! The guy starts to think I want a relationship (which is half true) and then distances himself. Anyone else go through this cycle?

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.
