Welcome to your quarantine! May it be uneventful.

Natter 76: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Foaminess
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh! Happy birthday, Fred Pete!
aurelia, may it pass quickly and without sickness.
I have 1/1s with all 3 of my direct reports Friday which I don't usually since I'm both going on vacation next week and I'm moving into a new role and they won't be reporting to me soon. And we're telling the team Friday so I wanted to make sure to check in with them right away.
Oh! And I just realized I could cancel a meeting because we actually had the discussion today!
I had an 8:00 am meeting and a meeting that lasted UNTIL 8:00 pm in one day last week. This amount of work is seriously going to become undoable if I can't stop having meetings. I know some jobs are really mostly about having meetings, but I can neither build courses nor answer people's questions with these endless meetings! And for some reason it is harder to hang back and just do work on a zoom meeting than in an in person, which is weird. I think it is the lack of two monitors, so I have to minimize zoom to work during a meeting.
Hooray canceled meeting!
Hope your quarantine is simple and easy, aurelia
Wow, Cashmere, that is a lot of disruption to the schedule, for sure. Hope everyone is ok!
{{{Amy}}} I'm so sorry. Constant rage-crying really takes it out of you. That should not be your lot.
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Fred Pete!
I'm sorry about your friend, Sophia.
I have very few meetings, like only one standing one each week and we are not on video, so it's not even seeing people - and STILL when I am tasked with setting up a call to deal with something I opt to try and get it resolved/dealt with via emails.
I love dealing with things via email or chat. If nothing else, you have a record to refer back to.
I was just complaining about my "this could have been an email" meeting this morning.
