No. We do conference calls, but most people who I have to talk to find the video disconcerting and we turn it off. We have cameras in our meeting rooms; we turn them off.I take it you don’t have to do video conferences or chats? Nothing like having an Executive Vice President start a video chat with you at 8 in the morning...
Since we’re working from home, everyone is jumping on the video chat bandwagon. We never did video when we were in the office, just IM...
Things haven't really changed. My boss and I IM or email, since we usually sit near each other. Sales calls or IMs, as usual. They usually know to IM since they know the odds of me picking up the phone at home are about the same as in office (50/50).
We have multiple offices, plus we have remote people, so we were already somewhat used to having to talk to people not in the same building as us. No one like video chatting. I'm in finance; we barely like talking...

The customer service ones...granted, I've seen baby boomers who've treated customer service reps with the utmost kindness, and I myself have gotten snippy on occasion, though I usually use my sweetness to get what I want (my mom is always amazed at how I get people to do things for me...). But I don't think I've even once seen someone my age scream at customer service reps the way Baby Boomers, and for that matter Gen Xers, have. Maybe we'll get to that age and have less patience? I don't know.@StarWarsGirl and other that really are not millennials but are accused of being ONE OF THOSE

They're the worst.
At least the Baby Boomer and Gen Xer with whom I live get it.

Oh, and saving for a house...good grief. There's no way I could be doing it if I weren't living with my parents; thankfully they understand and support me in this goal. And I probably could have done it already had I not had that unfortunate diagnosis last year that wiped out a good $5K of my savings between the bills and being out of work.
My lawn service was just here. Kiddo may have a mop on top of his head, but at least my grass is cut and fertilized.
Wait....it's an OPTION to work 7 days a week? Who in the world is signing up for THAT? How long does he have to keep this schedule?They have until Sunday night to adjust their sleep schedules, they usually get 2 weeks notice. This time it's a little different. 2 shifts that will not be there at the same time, no overlap. With the added bonus joy of being able to work up to 7 days a weekDh said a big no to that one!!!!!!!!!
I've never seen Hamilton. I have learned a lot of revolutionary war history from the Outlander series, though.
The overnight is until the national emergency is over. He's not going to do 7 nights. Maybe 6 once in a while but never 7. Her has enough seniority pull off only going in 5 and not doing any extra hours, but he's going to take some every week. edit a few of the younger single guys will try and do 7 days a week. No kids, no pets, no social life no problem
Good one!
