If I had a day to myself...*dreamy eyes*...I’d do a good workout class, boozy brunch with a good book, wander around the city for a bit people watching, hit up a museum, then I’d skip dinner and go see a movie with a giant bucket of popcorn because I’m alone and no one can judge my poor choices.

My city is big on museums and historical monuments. Wish I had more time to see them! Lots of shopping centers and you can still see a movie or go to a comedy club by yourself

Work out, take a cooking class

Movie or comedy club zx

Yup concerts are a great idea, dozens of people go alone, great way to speak about shared interests. I had a group of friends made up of cool people that started with a chat group after we met at a concert.

Anybody else noticed recruiters are only proactively reaching out about hybrid/on-site roles nowadays?

It's almost as if people don't want to be in offices anymore so that's why it's difficult for them to fill those roles.
Sidenote: recruiters, you can see on my LI profile that I'm remote. In the "What jobs are you interested in" field you can see I'm only interested in remote roles.
So, why are you reaching out to me about jobs in a city 3 hours away that's 100% onsite and w/out even a ReLo?
