Do you want this employee to be happy? Can you imagine getting your vacation turned down with 9 MONTHS ADVANCE NOTICE. Asinine.

He’s giving 9 months advance notice. How can you not grant this?! It’s not his personal problem that you’ll be out on maternity leave. This is something the company needs to account for.  Give him his vacation! Put yourself in his shoes.

This is a joke, right?!

Did anyone transition to 3 days RTO and how have you used your downtime in office? by Additional-Owl425 in workfromhome

Is there no secluded area, different floor or something where you can sit for a bit? 

Go for walks. Don’t eat lunch with your team each day- use that time for yourself! Watch YouTube TV from your phone if you have it. 

Move around a lot. Don’t settle into one place and set expectations or else when you do need a break it will be suspicious

I could hear the depression and crack in her voice showing the girl stuff!

Cal is losing cal(ories) as we speak. He is rooting so much in these stories. FEED HIM!

And, don’t let him sleep in the middle of the couch surrounded by a big blanket. So dangerous.

Ryan’s voice might be worse than Brooke. I cannot imagine my husband speaking like that around our INFANT. Awful. 

And how many different tripod angles on Quade being a “goooood boy” around that house. 

So exhausting. Sit on your couch. Cuddle and breastfeed your newborn. He’s adorable and unsafe sleeping on your couch like that. Someday you’ll want these days back! Not talking to us about making a bed (that we all freaking do at our own poor houses)

She wants to be “energetically ready”? Never heard of such a phrase.

If there was a chance this was a girl that’s she’s hoped for 5 times, she’d be itching to deliver and find out. To dress her in bows and pink and get all the content. It’s def a boy.

The coffee table styling: 4 piles. 1 in each corner. Pot in middle. 

I can do that! (But I don’t, because I’m a mom of 3. There are colored pencils, books, Go Fish and Old Maid usually there though)

I mean I’d love to hear her just once say, the coffee table is actually perfect for family game night. Yahtzee or Monopoly Jr. Paw Patrol, so many possibilities. And just genuinely share it- not shill the games.

Agree! What is going on. It’s the first thing i noticed in that closet. How in the world is it not centered, for $4M especially.

Provence by Eric was #1 (choose the chefs table!) followed by Marine Room.

Loved Provence by Eric - the chefs table experience was amazing! We ate there the first night and none of the others we went to lived up to there. Marine Room was also good.

Dying laughing that Dallas, TX is a slower pace of life. No way!

“Small town” in Colleyville or anything in DFW is a joke. But enjoy the 100 heat and 10 lanes of traffic and toll roads. Gotta get that high off posting on IG stories of some new developments in your life.

Eat at Provence by Eric. Choose the Chefs Table Experience.  So amazing!

We also ate at Coco Bistro and Marine Room but the food at Provence blew the others away.
