[quote]Yes. I was always looking for greener pastures before this. My company has gone above and beyond to take care of me during this. It would take A LOT to make me leave now. [/quote]
Same here with my company. They paid us to sit at home the first 5 weeks when a lot of other companies were im...

[quote]I already work from home and have a TON of flexibility with my job. Basically, get my work done and that's it. The last few weeks works been really slow so I've been using the time to study up. I work in IT and I sense a shift in my particular profession coming so I am trying to pick up so...

[quote]What is life in a first world urban society besides the work week, providing for a family, and a day or two to enjoy your hobbies?[/quote]
Are you really happy with just a day or two? I don't want to bring politics into it but lets look at Europe. They work on average about 32-36 hours a w...

[quote]I enjoy my job 90% of the time Sorry yall are miserable[/quote]
So do I. But I'll also admit that I'm done and over it by Friday. I'm also thinking that going to 4 days a week would help lessen burnout. ...

[quote]Well if you can work 4 tens and maintain your lifestyle, more power to you. I wouldn’t work any more than I have to either. And I haven’t. [/quote]
In my line of work 4 tens would be hard and I know our operations leader is personally against 4 tens.
I could do 4 days a week but it wo...

[quote]You sound like a third grader. [/quote]
No, just someone who sadly had a "live for the weekend" mentality and is now realizing that. I love my job but not 5 days a week of it. I want a life outside of work. ...

[quote]Work blows. People that live for their jobs make no sense to me. I'd retire tomorrow if I was able to. [/quote]
Same here and my dad was like this when he was still working. He was defined by his job and I just don't understand that mentality. A job is a part of my life, it is not my entir...
re: About 25% restaurant capacity..
Posted by IslandSaint83 on 5/11/20 at 8:12 pm
Here in Florida if restaurants are at 25% I haven't seen it. Given they definitely aren't at pre-Covid 19 levels but they are definitely above 25%. If I had to guess the ones I've been to are probably at least at 50%....

As someone who has been off work since mid-March and furloughed since mid-April (my emplyer was nice and paid us to sit at home the first 5 weeks before deciding to furlough all of us due to not knowing when we'll reopen)this whole situation has given me time to really reevaluate my work life.

re: friday gym - roll call
Posted by IslandSaint83 on 5/11/20 at 8:04 pm
Yeah as someone who suffers from Asthma already masks on a treadmill are going to be a no go for me. What gets me is how gyms are opening up there so quickly. I know for us here in Florida we've been in Phase 1 for 8 days now. Barber shops and salons are opening today but there's been no update yet ...
