First he freaked me out by saying he had switched it to heavy metal until I realized it was just Bill Nye covering Nivana's Smells Like Teen Spirit with science lyrics. But then he stumbled on something with clips from Full Metal Jacket. Time to figure out parental controls.

You can put any youtube link into safetube and it will take away the ads and it doesn't roll into any other video when it's done

I f*ed DW while DC and my MIL were watching cartoons downstairs. We were both, naturally, on the clock.

Business on the top- party on the bottom ( sweats or pj pants) . My co is all about the video calls and meetings.

I have not trained to be in a house full of people every moment of every day, potentially for months. I’m not getting the true introvert experience. I need an upgrade.

Am I the only Fed on telework that still actually has things to do?
My friend who works for another directorate at our agency told me her “work” has pretty much dried up and she has no idea how her boss is spending all her time.
Meanwhile, business as usual for me. I get no breaks. My kids are on video games and YouTube all day long because I have to get things done.
But hey, no bra, no shoes!

A day later and I hate them more than I did the day before.

You want to dance, you gotta pay the band.

Is it drinking alone if it's a video happy hour?

No, that's called drinking responsibly. You're not drinking and driving.

I have been working remotely for eight years. Now, with husband and kids here full time, my whole work life has been turned upside down. I am used to short periods when they’ve been around while I’m working, but now I see those were heavenly. The noise! The clutter! Plus the dishes! Making every meal at home!

I used to pick my nose. A lot. As in a couple times every hour and more when I was driving.

Now I don't. I hope I see few respiratory issues of all sorts now.

How big is sizable? Like a 2lb box of See’s? A 5 lb bag of snickers?

I broke my leg and have two on quarantine. It’s a nightmare.
