On the news, there was a report that "stress" causes negative health effects. Um. OK. Don't people feel "stress" just by being alive? Like, what would be the control group that you could measure the results against? I don't know why, but it always makes me wonder

I'm not a medical professional and I'm not sure what report you are referring to, but yeah some amount of stress is normal for all humans. It's one of our body's way to communicate its condition, but there is such a thing as too much stress and that can lead to negative health conditions over a long period of time

There are different degrees of stress. Even kids feel stressed out sometimes, but that doesn't compare to the stress of, say, someone in an active war zone. I'm sure the report is based on some scientific research where they explain their methodology

Can you link the report? Maybe we can see what kind of stress they're talking about and how they draw the comparison

I guess a group of people who have everything in their life in order. The real study should be about how they do it, I need their secrets lol.

One of my direct reports has asked about going part time. They currently manage special reports in a bi-weekly publication, working closely with sales, freelance writers, and an internal designer. Job duties are primarily project management and editing/proofreading. As the first read on articles, they need to have an understanding of the material (business/regulation). Has anyone had experience with job sharing in this type of a role?

Human interest stories might not be where the money is, but making the switch has saved my sanity after the tragedy I’ve covered the past few years.
