I’m at the gym. There’s a man walking around barefoot. He’s not working, but he’s also a trainer here. No.

Currently have $30K+ of overdue invoices (multiple brands). Curious Q, for freelancers/gig workers: How long do you wait after your first "nice" inquiry about payment to get a little less nice?

Just got an email that read: "Just to let you know, tomorrow is my last working day before I finish for Christmas and I'll be back from 2 Jan onwards." It's December 13! Is this the new normal?

Over the weekend, I went to @Hertz to pick up a car I had previously reserved at DCA. When I arrived, I noticed an odd amount of people standing around - waiting. When I got to the counter, the clerk informed me that they wouldn't have a vehicle for me for at least 90 minutes.
