Our clients that are newbies at WFH are showing up on calls with video on and dressed up. I can’t decide if I leave my camera off or let them see I’ve been running projects in t-shirts and sweatpants.

Just know that sweatpants are a step further than most of us are going, so you're doing just fine. I haven't worn pants in weeks.

Hey everyone,
I have a phone interview with MODIS tomorrow for the role of Packaging Engineer, Remote. Can someone guide me to successfully get through it? Thank you. Appreciate the help.

I have been at my company for a little less than 4 years now. I’ve had the third highest sales last year out of a team of 50 and consistently the highest outbound calls per week. They told me I can start WFH once I hit $1mil in profit, but then rescinded right before I hit the goal. They have also denied simpler request like time off, when I know they have approved this before for others. I feel super unappreciated, but the money is great. I’m not sure if I should look elsewhere and start over?

Recalling my first onboarding meeting in-house with the c - suite. Thinking back now recalling that they would often mention if someone they are referring to is a woman. For example, "Oh we have these two women doing x, y, and z and they do it well, a well-oiled machine." etc. I was the only woman in the room. They did not mention when someone performing a particular role was a man but they did point out when it's a woman, happened about four times. Odd, no? What would you make of this?
