Follow through with your actions as a higher up. If we come to you asking for help, don't promise us it will happen and not deliver. Also, please make sure your employees have all the tools they need to do their job sufficiently prior to starting the job. And the last thing would be please reimburse your employees for expenses needed to maintain their licensure that is required for the job.

I have a rental property and my tenant is asking me to change the fridge light burb. I live out of state and don’t have property manager locally. Is it bad if I ask them to change the fridge light burb themselves?

I’m pretty responsive for things they need help with like laundry machine got broken or pantry doors fell off. So I had sent people to fix those maintenance and repair issues.

But light burbs? Srlsy? They are grown up people (fresh out of college girls)

What do you guys think about apps like BetterHelp and Talkspace? I understand they might have real therapists working on their content, but a lot of the marketing I see is so vague and broad that it feels like a lie.

Just seems a little fad-like and money grabby to me. Thoughts?
