Over a year in WFH and my biggest accomplishment came this morning. I taught my husband how to use section breaks in Word to change only one page of a 30 page document to landscape view. Consulting skills still strong! 🤪

Haha. My poor husband is updating a procedure in his company’s template. He isn’t in and out of formatting word docs that often.

Blew my mind 🤯 thanks OP

I rem spending over an hour trying to make one page landscape for my undergrad report and submission going late. Never going to forget how to do that. I think that was the biggest takeaway from the entire 4 yrs.

Spending the last year home has allowed some of my leadership/management skills to rub off of my product manager husband as he had the opportunity to listen in on many calls. Particularly around pushing back professionally and setting boundaries. Proud of him!

Can we do that? Please teach me too. Share your Zoom training details.

I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve opened Word as a consultant

Wow surprised to read this. None of your deliverables are in word format? What about RFPs?

I received a job offer for a PM position with a base of $125K and a 10% bonus, fully remote and ok benefits. The parental leave is pretty bad, just FMLA and STD/LTD so the most I’d get is 60% of my salary for 12 weeks. I’ve cancelled most of my interviews except for one where the pay is $135K, 20% bonus, hybrid schedule, good benefits and 16 weeks fully paid parental leave. I’d like to start my family in a year or two - is it better to take the remote gig or the hybrid role with full paid leave?
