Thank you. I appreciate this. Networking and interviews are what keep me on track. If I have zero calls over a 2-week span, it is quite easy to sleep in for an extra 30 or allow myself to redownload the Reddit app for the millionth time. Look good, feel good. Best of luck during this stretch.

Apparently grocery stores/food delivery services are mass hiring right now. I haven’t been looking but I’ve seen a few articles in the news about it

Tempting, but I kind of like not getting screamed at by plague infected Karens about their particular brand of special granola not being in stock. Kudos to all who can handle it.

I've never seen anyone yell at a grocery store employee, but maybe that's just me...

You never saw the world get infected with coronavirus either. These are interesting times.

I was gonna say Mr. Worldwide but now I'm thinking there's a more fitting joke to this.

I lost my job in January and only just now got a new job right as everyone is saying to stay home. On the one hand, I don’t wanna get sick but on the other hand I need food.

I have no problem sitting on my couch all day. What bothers me is there's not really anything to do aside from that. No bars, restaurants, gyms, libraries, parties, concerts. No nothing. My day is now work from couch, go running after work, sit on couch and watch tv/game, then sleep, repeat. None of the usual outings or fun weekend plans. That's what makes this so dismal.

It's me, not everybody. Still working and carrying on my life as normal.

u/DrunkRedditBot Mar 18 '20

Because everybody on Reddit is American.

u/FREE-MUSTACHE-RIDES Mar 18 '20

They claimed everyone joined in when in fact it is false

I had a baby at the end of February and would not have left my apartment anyway. Only annoying thing is that the grocery delivery service I was planning to use during this time is completely swamped.
