Just told us to be safe but no news on whether we’ll be open or not. Either way, I’m not planning on risking my life driving in to the office lol

Ours worded it in a way that only corporate could, telling us how grateful they are that we would all be coming in despite the weather 😂 No way. I'm staying home.

My manager told me she's a worrier and wants us to stay safe...to the point of nearly forbidding us to try to make it in. Sounds like she's in mom mode,but I've been through some storms and tend to explore and venture out. I had some catching up to do so I made it in and had some quiet time. All good.

I kind of figured the storm would affect work buuut expected to hear tomorrow rather than today

I got two emails about it but that's about it. Also lots of chatter and conversation about making sure everybody stays safe, etc.

My husband is dealing with all of those automated messages, so I definitely get it. I'm grateful that I'm not getting a bunch of text messages cluttering up my phone!

No, they aren't. They pretty much said stay safe but we still expect you in this office on Monday lol. Everyone stay safe and warm out there.

I give my cell phone to all clients routinely. However, there are always 1 to 2 clients who abuse this and it seems as soon as their cases are over I find a new one and it is making me rethink. I hate to do this because 98% do not abuse it and I like being connected to my people. Thoughts??

Interested in everyone’s opinions on replica luxury. I ask because, as noted in the previous thread re: Chanel’s price increases, the quality of authentic luxury bags is going way down while the price increases consistently. Specifically Chanel and LV. I’m fascinated in the online rep community and it looks like rep quality has increased exponentially (with genuine materials and 1:1 markings, stitching, hardware, etc). What’s your argument for or against replicas?

I have been approached by 3 separate HR people at a startup company to interview for a position. I already have a fulltime job that pays well and I only started 6 months ago too. Anyways, the pay was intriguing and the job was a high level scientific advisor so I did interviews. At the last interview, at the end I was told the job was for management but I prepared for a different kind of interview. I am waiting for an offer or rejection letter. I feel peeved that they wasted my time. Red flags?

I am fairly green in academia (< 1 year) and I want to shift to an area of research which I always wanted to do but never could as a Ph.D. student (because of conflict of interest).
The issue I am facing is that due to lack of my documented research experience in this field (read, lack of papers) I am finding it very hard to land any grant and reviewers keep saying "The PI hasn't demonstrated any experience in said research" blah blah.
Any advice on how to overcome this?
