I lived in Woodlawn for a long time in my 20’s when I worked on 138th St. My commute was anywhere from 20 - 45min and sometimes even an hour. Traffic can really get you on the Deegan or the concourse. Finding parking at school is also a wildcard of time mgmt. welcome to the Bx! Dobbs would be a nice place to live and it’s nearby.

Wish apps like BetterHelp were free. I can’t afford healthcare or therapy (I’m unemployed, and yes, I’ve tried seeking pro bono therapy options — no place anywhere nearby offers it.) I really need a therapist I can talk to on at least a weekly basis to just unpack so much that’s bogging me down to the point of being unable to function some days, but it’s just so cost prohibitive! What sucks is everyone assumes this career hands you median wages on a platter but I’m worse off than I’ve ever been.

Marsh & McLennan I am moving 2 hours from my office. My manager says i have to come 2 days to office. When i come to the office its only me and couple of other people. No one seems to care about coming to office. When i asked manager if i can work remote i was told that its for my career development. Can you guys tell in Canada which companies are offering remote opportunities?
