Which backpack do you use?

Laptop bag. Backpacks are for undergrads and people with no sense of personal space (yes, I’m talking to you guy - the idiot who’s always bumping into everyone on the 6 train during rush hour)

Love the tumi London rolltop

A1 - how much did you spend on it? Kinda steep price for that 💼. $400?

Got it for 300 through bcg, also use it on the weekends to go into the office then the gym/run errands. Had a brief for a while but found it gave me back, hip, and shoulder issues.

Lol still $300. I lug around $75 laptop 💼

I paid $425 for the expandable version

Definitely on the pricier end. As long as you enjoy your backpack though!

Backpack!!!!! I love my Dagne Dover backpack in black. Could not imagine lugging through the airport with a shoulder bag

Would you feel comfortable telling HR that your service line’s culture sucks and name the individuals who cause it? Or is a better approach saying it’s the leadership in general creating a negative and toxic culture? How effective are these conversations really? Trying to assess if there’s any point in bringing this up. Obviously HR works for the company and an employee sharing their thoughts on the unsupportive, cold leaders could bite me in the long run.

Boss has WFH for 9months. I have been WFH for 2-weeks for travel quarantine/state guidelines. She now requires that I go back to the office to “show face” that HR is right alongside the essential employees. I have been more productive from home vs the office. I get the perspective of team unity, but is it wrong to feel there is no reason to risk my health? The company justifies increasing my covid risk (high-risk already) to “show face”, when my job is being fulfilled while WFH. Am I crazy?
