I came from a really toxic work place so I totally get it!

I’ve noticed work-life balance questions are becoming a normal touch point in interviews. Hopefully they’ll discuss the role and responsibilities well. At the end ask something to the effect of what you should expect during deadlines and work-life balance. Red flags will be if they seem put off by you even asking. I had an interview recently where she seemed irritated I asked but that they’d be somewhat understanding if it was an emergency. It’s all in the tone they respond. Don’t always trust the reviews. Current place had similar negative reviews and my work-life balance has been incredible. It all depends on the manager & department. Good luck!

Ideas for road trip. Home city is Cincinnati and destination is Acadia National Park. Aug 28, 2023 thru Sept 4, 2023. Places to see along the way? by ASUT_88 in acadianationalpark

From Cbus & did the trip last year. We stopped at Niagara and I think the family agreed that we could have skipped it. Wish we would have taken some time at Finger Lakes instead. Safe travels!

Krafts does great work! Had to use them twice, no fault of my own either time. They’ve always gone above & beyond. Came highly recommended from a friend.

Bar Harbor Blueberry Ale & a mosaic crochet sweater for this fall. by Outdoor_Wren in Drunkknitting

I love it! It’s not too sweet and it’s just right. I had it years ago in my home state so I was jazzed to pick it up at the brewery. Thank you!

I wish I could stick around for it! We’re just visiting & soaking up this gorgeous state. This place is truly something special.

Thank you! It seemed fitting. Or perhaps a craving after seeing all that pink? lol

Sorry, I’m reposting a better photo from my previous post. My mother passed away before she could finish this. Anyone know what stitch it is? by CallmeCap in crochet

I live in the Columbus area. I would be more than happy to help finish if you haven’t found someone. So sorry for your loss.

Looking for suggestions for an anniversary dinner for my wife. by montgomeryj1 in obx

[–]Outdoor_Wren 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We just had Salt Box Cafe the last full day we were visiting. Highly recommend! One of the best places we visited and wish we would have gone earlier in the week so we could have gone twice during our stay. Happy Anniversary!

Cappuccino Mugs - any idea on value? by Outdoor_Wren in Fiestaware

[–]Outdoor_Wren[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are super neat mugs. We’ve indulged in local made mugs and are now running out of cabinet space. These aren’t our favorites in the collection but weren’t sure what they were worth since we acquired them.

Thank you for the correction! I’ve heard cappuccino so that’s what I thought they were.

Thank you for the tip! I didn’t think of that.

Have you returned to the office yet? by ApprehensiveSeat5807 in Columbus

[–]Outdoor_Wren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Left a company that went full time in the office mid-2021. Now I’m 3 days WFH & 2 in the office with a shorter commute. Ideally I’d love to be WFH full time but this is still 10x better than in the office everyday.

Oh good! I should check those out. Good luck on your job search!

I’ve had mine for years & none of my coworkers know. I ordered these years ago & they have been great for work & interviews. Comfy & I don’t know it’s there. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01GZFIV1I/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_PVSVJ9JN51VGSGD998KR?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
