I rented a couple of cars recently. Agents were wearing masks and seemed to do a good job sanitizing the car. Feel free to do it yourself as well, and ask them to sign for it or otherwise find a way to not touch the POS terminal (glove?). Outside hot areas, I wouldn’t worry too much about not stopping for food—it’s no riskier than going to a grocery store or getting take-out. I wear a glove to get fuel. Another plus: rentals are really cheap right now. I’d check with multiple companies (though Hertz May have the best one-way pricing). I’m renting a new Cadillac SUV from Sixt for less than $400/month including taxes.

On the flight side, it may be worth checking award tickets costs, particularly on AA.

Driving to leave the city to stay at my friend's in the Suburb / kinda rural area indefinitely btw, not to visit for a week. It's hertz so I'm wondering if I can request a car that hadn't been touched in several days although I imagine that the cars all have been extra cleaned with the whole covid thing. Also for flights there are flights there still but no more nonstop, only ones with 2 connections, and it's ~$600 next few weeks...

Rest stops are open.

You don’t... you missed the boat to leave and now you shelter in place instead of potentially spreading the virus.

Exactly

I already travel a lot and this boundary is super important to me. Am I right or wrong?

Hi fishes, my previous employer has not given me the money for Earned Leaves, they are saying it's not in their policy.. I have a variable bonus of 100000. Out of this they have given only 19,000 in the month of December after 6 months of joining...But they are not giving me any bonus after completing 1 year and 2 months.. They have stopped my appraisal as well...

So in total, I lost my appraisal money, bonus and Earned Leaves money... I feel betrayed and cheated...

Curious what your title structure is for roles focused specifically on organic social media (or does it always require paid expertise?). I imagine Community Manager is appropriate for entry level but when you start to grow and the work becomes more than social moderation - responsible for the development of all organic content (and sometimes copywriting), high level reporting, etc. - not sure what's most reflective of the roles. Any insights and perspectives welcome :)
