Traveling to Paris for the first time. Anyone visited since travel restrictions have eased? Any tips on what to do on a budget? 5 days not including travel. Musts are Eiffel tower (is it worth going to the top?), Louvre, Nortre Dame (realize it’s closed to will view from outside). What else?

For the record… I probably would’ve waited to go but hubby thought it was a romantic gesture for our anniversary and already booked it so there’s no turning back. So please, comment only on the tips.

I just want to say that I still support police officers across the country. I know that these are tough times for everyone and while I condemn the officers that use lethal force on unarmed civilians...I understand that not all officers act like that. I would probably get thrown out if this were any other bowl.

Hello! This is a long story, so I’ll try to keep it brief. I work for a very small supplement company - it’s myself (marketing/acct mgmt) my coworker (sales), and the owner. My coworker is struggling to complete his tasks/meet his goals, and the owner is coming to me about angry clients. I’m afraid my coworkers inability to complete his duties is somehow being reflected onto me? What’s the most tactful way to have a conversation, either with him or the owner? Can provide further detail if needed
