What's your go-to work music? Or do you work better in complete silence? I can't work in silence without my brain getting loud, so I listen to house music or jazz while I work. My sister (who also has ADHD) can't get anything done unless it's dead silent. Just wondering what works for others

I am an elementary school teacher. My oldest son is feeling drawn to ECE. He loves children, loves to help in vacation bible school, wants to work directly with people to help them. Thoughts?

My recruiter told me companies in Texas no longer screen drug test for Marijuana/THC during background checks. It was one check taken off the screening.

Is this true? Work can be stressful. Anything helps.

Having trouble trying into optimal ketosis, levels are usually in the 1.1-1.3. I realize that those numbers aren't awful, but trying to do better

Who’s purchased an under desk treadmill since covid or I guess anytime? Thoughts? Recommendations? I’ve been doing research, but I find some sites get paid to write about them so I’d rather have personal experiences. TIA

Last year I told my class about my partner and it was the best decision ever made. My admins, students, and parents were supportive and had no affect at all. I can’t wait to share my loved ones each year and how I joined a Varsity Gay League Kickball team as well. I even have parents interested in creating a team. So thankful for the community I teach in❤️

(Rant) Hey guys. Just randomly found out that I got oral herpes. I’m not even sexually active but this news blow. My physician told me that it may cause some mouth blisters when you’re stressed or weather changes during the year. Apparently half of the world’s adult population have it. Still, not a good news to receive. Get tested y’all

September 11th just makes it more poignant that the nation does not seem to care about the deaths of 190,000. The lack of concern is appalling

Has anyone taken the L to midway airport recently? Would be traveling alone and trying to gauge safety (as in crime) since the L seems less crowded with covid

Any thoughts on McCann Health NY, and Red flags? Do they have a good structured/balanced workflow and team per department for things to be balanced out for each member, and good work-life balance? Anything to consider when applying there?

I’m in constant chronic pain and considering kratom but I hear it is addictive and damaging. Has anyone had experience with it?

This time last year I knew I needed to stop drinking, but I couldn’t. This year, though, I’m putting my health first. Starting day 2 of sobriety and hope to keep it up. Thanks to this group for all the support and encouragement shown to those of us struggling with such powerful addictions.

Why is bowl so dead lately? Used to be popping

Hi,

For the bgc verification in TCS, my bgc documents are showing as accepted. And I had the matrix verification for address last month also. After joining, again i got mail that matrix verification team will send mail for the address verification. Anybody has idea why again this mail came?

I am the only immigrant with an accent in my office and it’s almost a daily thing now that my bosses/coworkers would explain terms to me that I already know. I’d often freeze when they do that because my first reaction is always confused. How do you talk about it with them after the fact especially when it seems like it’s not a big deal to them?

How’s the match making going? 😁

Friends,
TCS has a clause in the offer letter where it states that the offer becomes null and void if one doesn't join within 120 days. I need to try and get this extended beyond 120 days. Has anyone done this perviously if yes.. Please share how did you convince TCS HR for it?

Any thoughts on potential tech roles for a human capital management manager?

Looking for recommendations to generally upskill my Strategy work (or learn from scratch) — be it courses, classes, books, podcasts, people to follow.

For context, I’m a freelance Social Media Manager/Strategist and I came into Ad world via Startups. Throwing myself into learning on the job with more Strategy gigs - but I still don’t feel like I quite know the lingo or best practices or theories.

I used to get lit on LITS (Long Island Iced Tea) ummmm you didn’t use lit correctly. But I’m starting to use the word extra correctly. LOL #facepalm

I found a place with great reviews to be diagnosed for ADHD, but it’s through virtual appointments, is this a normal thing?

How do you get out of the burnout cycle? I’ve felt overwhelmed for a while and now I’m in the “can’t function at all” stage. It’s so hard explaining this to my manager because I already have a workload that’s lighter than others (not because of performance or my request). Any tips on how to get re-engaged, since the overwhelming feeling will come back?

Has anyone gotten to the point where it is physically painful to try and concentrate? Not sure what to do at this point; had Ritalin for a bit, but I adjusted in like 10 days before the benefits went away. Now I’m scared I’ll just keep getting worse

Finally found a provider who listens and is helping me get ADHD controlled. Also diagnosed me w/anxiety. Treating w/Adderall and Wellbutrin, but she's telehealth so can't prescribe anymore. Was transfering Rx to my PCP under her guidance but my BP was high at my yearly (was a particularly stressful day at work, BP was normal the last 3 years). PCP won't coordinate care until I see a cardio. Anxious something will be wrong and I can't be treated for ADHD anymore 😩 anyone else here w/high BP?
