Just applied for a new job for the first time since a couple of years ago. Here's hoping it works out, since it would pay more, have more PTO, and would give me more retirement accounts to max out (pension, 403b and a 457!). I've been in my current role closing in on a decade. Usually, when I apply for other jobs by the time I get to the interview stages I'm not as interested in leaving. I'll see if that happens this time around or not, since I'm doing this in response to RTO after being WFH for the past 4 years.

Asking where you are from is pretty normal conversation, especially if you have a noticeable accent. Asking where your parents/grandparents/etc are from is less common. Are you by chance not-white? Sometimes these sorts of questions have a race element to them

Agreed.

I should not know her name. I should not know her intimate personal details.

She should have been able to mourn her loss in private with her loved ones. Not on the national stage as an example. She should not be at risk of prosecution because of this unfortunate situation.

Imagine having to get a judge to signoff on any other medical procedure, and it really highlights the absurdity.

...this feels a lot like the death panels a certain sect was screeching about back in 2008/2009

Anything a chiropractor can do that will actually help, a PT can do better. They'll also teach you what exercises to do to prevent needing to see them again.

A chiropractor will just tell you to come to them more often, and take more of your money over time.

You deserve a relationship that does not negatively impact your mental well-being.

As a fellow olive lover, this looks delicious!

If nothing else, she is an incredible business woman.

Ah yes, Woody Allen - the paragon for appropriate relationships with women. We should certainly listen to him about what is and isn't acceptable behavior.

/s if that wasn't clear.

If all else fails, just tell the interviewers something along the lines of

"I was so excited about this opportunity that I wasn't able to sleep last night. I apologize for not being 100%."

Most people have experienced being too anxious/excited to get a good night's sleep, so if you are up front about it, they will probably be more forgiving than if you just try to power through and fail.

I’ve been to places that had free municipal wifi, mostly at libraries and bus stops. It seems like a small service that is generally helpful to people without access to their own wifi. I think the better solution is to have more places with free wifi at night so people don’t have to congregate in the one small area.

There aren’t many places the unhoused are allowed to exist in public and cutting them off from essential services only makes it harder for them to better their situation.
