Is it just me or does anyone else know or have an inclination that their employer committed fraud after receiving PPP loans during COVID pandemic?

I dont know for sure but I wonder if my last employer falsified info for theirs. They sent me home and insisted on paying part of my wage after they sent me some attestation that I had to be home because there wasnt anyone to watch my kids when schools closed. That wasnt true so I sent it back and refused to sign.

Yeah, my former company had huge revenue growth through 2020 too. So many companies got away with robery basically.

I'd bet total fraud in the program was north of 20% in dollar terms. Maybe even more than a third.

So I just had 2 tables fight in a restaurant. Table A coughed and table B said oh covid and laughed. Happens that table A is Asian and table B is white.
Table A assumed the joke is because they are Asian and table B says no, everyone got covid not just Asians it’s just a bad joke; who is right?
Table A escalated to a fight and had to be both separated and asked to leave. Who is right?

Black tie wedding planned for fall ‘21. Two questions for you classy folk:

1) I only have 1 real (non apple) watch 2020 JLC Master Control - but it is silver with light brown band (I always wear brown dress shoes). Is it too uncouth to wear it with black shoes / black tux? What about a navy tux (still prob have to do black shoes tho).

2) As you guys climb the latter, are there really ever occasions (COVID notwithstanding) where a tux is warranted? Debating buy vs. rent.

Thanks!!

Not sure if anyone has experience with this but figured I’d ask. My 8yo daughter has been gaining weight over the last 2 years. Started during covid being home a lot and I guess eating more than normal. Schedules now are back to normal and she’s still gaining. I’ve gotten rid of all unhealthy food in the house but she will eat a lot of everything, always wants seconds and very hard to control. I don’t know what to do. Is it too early for a nutritionist?

Took LOA last year, multiple months. Recovered from burnout driven by long hours during covid. But feel like I'm now experiencing burnout in a different form. Don't feel drained but I'm just unmotivated to do anything in life and work. I don't want to eat, exercise, go places, or work. I don't want another break from work, I want to keep doing things (eg not so drained I want to take months off) but this seems like burnout and I don't know what to do.

Question for my fellow introverts. Post coronavirus, would you attend a meetup for introverts? Id like to start a group on the site 'meetup' for introverts where <10 people would meet up for a beer or glass of wine and get to know each other & have meaningful conversations. I think theres a misconception that introverts dont enjoy socializing/meeting new people. We do! We just need a safe space with fewer people and a little less noise. Would love to hear your thoughts/insights 🙃
