Will the return to the office affect freelancers? Pre Covid it seemed like freelancers worked remotely anyway. That was my observation. What say you long-term FL people?

Moved back to the city post-COVID. My friends have become hermits and don’t really want to do anything.

Any ideas on ways to cultivate a social life here without friends who are excited to do so as well?

Accepted an offer of employment with a mid-sized firm to begin in a couple of months. I’ve always wanted to shoot for big law but haven’t had the opportunity thus far. Overall, I accepted because I didn’t want to take the opportunity for granted in addition to the uncertainty with hiring due to covid. Would it be an issue to shoot for a big law opportunity in the interim? I know how this looks and sounds, so I definitely don’t want to set a precedent that I deal in bad faith.

I've been with my boyfriend for about 2 years now. I only get to see him on the weekend because we have opposite working schedules during the week.

This annoys me since he sees his family throughout the week but my only quality time is on the weekends. He also hasn't been doing anything to get him closer to his life goals because his family always asks him for his time and money....
