Today I had a male producer on a call make a joke that because the shoot is early in the morning next week I’d have to “skip pilates”. I’ve never met this man before. We were on a zoom call. I hadn’t mentioned Pilates. 🙄

Yeah I’m weighing whether I should have or not. I still can. 🤷‍♀️

It was awkward and dorky joke. Move on. You’ll meet all kinds of strange and imperfect people on production. But if anyone crosses the line let your EP or CD know.

This.

I'd low-key take it as a compliment. He may just think you give tea body

If he says anything else similar, just ask him why he said that?

Gross. Question though, is Pilates part of your routine so he knows too much?

Nope don’t do Pilates! So it’s not like he randomly knows my routine. Never met him before. He just made a comment about what he assumes women do in the mornings I guess. Probably because he doesn’t see many women in the mornings…

He was trying to connect and get you to like him. Def a fail.

early call times do mean skipping every part of a morning routine even if you’re a 5am solidcore girl! i wouldn’t think anything bad about it

A female friend of mine recently received a settlement in a sexual harassment action against her employer during mediation. Upon receiving her (female) attorney’s final bill she was blown away to discover that her attorney charged her almost five times what the attorney estimated she would charge for the mediation.

A coworker (diff depts) and I realized we live in the same neighborhood after running into each other on the street. We started talking more in the office and he ended one convo with “we should get drinks sometime”. I gave him my number via slack and said to hit me up when he wants to get together. Hadn’t heard from him in a couple weeks then connected him to my friend who works for a company he’s trying to sell to. Then he asked if I’d set him up with my friend :( think I have any chance?

IEP, 504, and those without internet will return in-person next week while rest of students remain remote. Regular Ed teachers may have students (mild Learning Disabled kiddos) in their room while teaching. They are saying it’s a liability issue if they have one student in the room with them, even though teaching other via Zoom. Thoughts? Anyone else experiencing this?

The short: Would anyone be up for starting regular virtual co-working sessions? I’m thinking 2-3 rounds of [5 mins to set intentions : 45 mins of work : 10 min break]. The long: One technique I’ve found to stay focused is “body doubling,” i.e., having another person present while you’re working. I’ve had some success replicating this over Zoom/Google Meet. Everyone works on their own thing and stays muted during work blocks, but videos stay on. It reminds me of studying in the library vs at home

I am trying to write a stock letter to send to parents everyday that their child does not come to virtual learning sessions. I have been told by administration that even though I have spoken to parents and know why students are not coming to zoom classes, that we still need to contact them everytime they dont come. For some of my students this is everyday due to parent work schedules and disability issues.
Is anyone else having this trouble? What are you saying to parents to cover yourself?
