Since the store I worked for closed I was out of a job. I figured since I worked with people a lot I might be ok at customer service. That's what retail pretty much is anyways. I applied fora few work from home jobs in CS and finally got one. Anyone can do this. Don't let corona make you give up. Look on Jobcase look on Glassdoor, there are a lot of wfh jobs now. #workfromhome #coronavirus
Lot of people around the state affected. Hope everyone is following the instructions to stay at home!
Okay, Corona ---this is BS! I know its not my employer's fault but as a fulltime employee, its super scary to have your schedule cut to only 12 hours per week.
I work as a shift supervisor at a local fast food joint. I'm thinking that I should try and find a part time job because we don't know how long this will last.
When I apply to a new place, should I tell them upfront that I have no intention of staying long term...? I dont know how to go about that...
My grandma is celebrating her 91st birthday today! Because we didn't want to risk her having potential exposure, we celebrated through her garden-level window. We called her and were able to chat on the phone while we sat outside..... better than nothing!
A lot of the staff that takes care of her outdoor property were laid off, so my kids and I also weeded her garden for her which was very special to her.
I feel bad things are def NOT the same as when I was young especially in this new world we have goin on. She just turned 16 and was so excited to start applying for some jobs. Now that is all on pause. What can a 16 year old do during the Coronavirus to make money?

I've been a vet tech for a few years now. I love the career but with things getting crazier by the day with this Coronavirus outbreak... I need to have a back up.
My FT hours have been cut DRASTICALLY as we're only taking emergency cases and we have to rotate those slim hours through 8 techs.
I've never done work online, but I am eager and willing to learn. Where do you think I should/could start?
Real worried about my folks. They are in their 70's and I am nervous with this virus. They also live across the country. I told em the best thing they can do is get their groceries delivered, wash their hands and not go out and talk to the neighbors. Anyone else worried about their parents? I can't be the only one.
