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.
I have to put all this effort into going for walks and doing yoga and whatever, and I'm still walking SO MUCH LESS than I did when I was working in the office
This is me. I used to walk at least 2 miles a day just going about my normal routine.
I did go to the pool this morning for the first time in months, and it was actually really nice! I had a reserved lane all to myself.
I took the counter offer. After talking with the department head it seems like they really want me to be around especially as they move to newer technologies where I have experience that isn't in abundance there. Also, it was a big bump in salary. Anyhow, it feels good to have things come to a conclusion.
Congrats, Gud!
Maria, one thing I can say in regard to RFPs is to read the instructions or what they want - I know that one thing that immediately gets your proposal thrown out is if you don't get the details. (I've been working for associations for the design and construction industry for ... wow! 40+ years ... and that's the first thing they look at.)
Timelies all!
Stupid recurring calf cramp.(and the resulting muscle knot that takes a long time to loosen up)
OMG, I had to actual customer service, calling a consumer to help him with a problem, and he was actually super nice but that was still exhausting! I'm glad I don't do that full time.
I am happy to be a go-for-walk buddy (or you know someone even more reliable on that front than me).
If only the two of you were closer.... because I'd totally be up for that.
Can I just say, I hate WFH for this reason: I have to put all this effort into going for walks and doing yoga and whatever, and I'm still walking SO MUCH LESS than I did when I was working in the office, even after I stopped going to most meetings on campus. It's very annoying.
This, but for the last 7 years. It's so hard to motivate to get out of the house. Especially when it's hot and humid, and especially in a pandemic.
Congratulations, Gud!

Yep, I'm a stickler for the details when I'm responding to an RFP and won a few deals because I paid attention when others didn't. Now, I'm on the other side of the table for the first time in 20 years. I'm writing an RFP for a client who needs to select a fleet management company, which is part of the suite of services offered by our consulting firm. It's become my job since I worked for a fleet management company (talk about a double-edged sword). I'm the in-house expert.
I read that as RPF every time.
Why why why do I still have to do an annual review? It's not like anyone is getting a raise. At least my employer notified us that they are opting out of the payroll tax deferral.

RIGHT?! I am still mad about having to do mine in April
Ours were way simplified and I did the least amount possible, because SERIOUSLY.
