Last week I play video games during work hours and start drinking at 3 pm, and the next thing I know I'm working through this weekend and have to wonder if I'll have time to go to the grocery store in the upcoming week. Isn't WFH and COVID-uncertainty great?

Haha good point. I submit though that the existence of those who have it worse than you does not diminish the stress of your situation. At any rate it was a lighthearted observation at the fluctuations of work. Of course I don't contend that I have a truly tough life.

We’ve been TTC for 7 months now. I was 10 days late for my period, took a pregnancy test 3 different times in the last week and all negative. Reading online i learned that i could be pregnant and just need the hcg levels to build up for a positive test. But last night, I had the worst cramps and now have light bleeding, and some clots 😭... this whole process is such an emotional rollercoaster.. has anyone else had a similar experience? I think this could be an early termination but not sure.

I wish I would have had this bowl ten years ago 😔 I recently was diagnosed with ADHD.

Do NOT claim you are "colorblind" in the workplace. 1. DE&I knowledge is now a core leadership competency. Colorblind claims will earn you the reputation of being DEI-ignorant at best & racist at worst. 2. Colorblindness within the context of workplace diversity is an obvious lie. You do NOT want to be painted as an intellectually dishonest leader. 3. Colorblind claims signal that you lack the leadership skills & vocabulary to have key conversations. Ask questions here, in this safe space.
