    Definitely gonna spend my evenings doing Uber Eats. If restaurants can only sell take-out or delivery, I almost feel like I have a responsibility to be available to deliver their stuff.

    I have the same problem at my work. Some managers let their employees work from home and some do not. Even though the employees who are not allowed are actually more capable of doing their jobs remotely.

    The thing that is most screwed up is that 2 of the people on my team that are in the office have decreased immune systems already. So irresponsible.

    Hey, does the 4-second rule still apply? I just dropped a piece of toast, picked it up, then "almost" ate it! :blink:

    I don't believe anyone is capable of leading the country "together" at this point. We are a divided country (and yeah Trump has made it worse but it was coming long before he got here).

    Does anyone else find it suspicious that Russia only has 93 cases? Just saying. I look at the map and there are big red circles all around them on all sides and yet a country as big and as connected to the world as Russia has a grand total of 93 cases?? Hmmmm...

    lol, touche'.

    I guess my question to you would be, do you see someone with the ability to bring people together who happens to be on the other side of the fence politically than you are? Cause I personally believe that we all tend to say well the guy on my side could do it, but that is essentially the problem if they represent the other side most people tend to say they absolutely couldn't do it, and if they represent the other side we tend to think they don't even want to bring us together. Tribalism is interesting. - I'm no better than anyone by the way so this isn't judgemental or meant as condescending -

    I flat told my boss I'm working remote because it's not vital that I'm in the office. They are "thinking" about staggering the office people half in the building, half remote, week to week. I'm saying nah. I'm gonna go ahead and work remote. There's nothing I can't do at home. It's extremely stupid to be in the office as far as I'm concerned.
