Reply to comment by Yeeaaaarrrgh in LPT REQUEST:How do I live on the move and make money. by Apprehensive-Cold895
Any idea which companies allow that?

I'm not a coder, but know people who are. Several have the option of working on the road, if they so chose. As long as you have signal, you could, theoretically, travel all you want as long as you get your day job taken care of.

Yoga != stretching, though it incorporates stretching foundations.
Yoga includes a lot of other things, like isometric strength, strength at ends of range of motion, breathwork, and more.
I highly encourage yoga - however, 'stretching' on its own can open up the door to injuries if you're not properly warmed up.
I rock climb, and yoga is a fantastic way to counter the 'damage' done from climbing, so I generally agree with you!

Career consultant here: Network through your schools (and schools in the area you want to live) LinkedIn Page specifically through the “Alumni Tool”. It helps you find people with with your degree to better understand what they are doing, and once you find the people doing what interests you, connect and introduce yourself/how you came across their profile. Build the conversation up with them if they accept, asking them questions about their org/job/experience and get to know them, then hopefully they will help you find something of interest.

Reply to comment by cblguy82 in LPT: If you have sick children, they should stay at home. This will help them get better faster and is a basic public health guideline. by ntrrrmilf
I remember being sick as a kid once and went to the doctors. I had a mild cold with mild symptoms except for my fever. I was getting laughed at because the nurses and doctor thought I was faking it all to get out of school up until one of them finally took my temperature after like half an hour of being there all miserable and then they shut up real quick and started taking me serious cause i had like a 101+ fever going on.
Never went back to that place again. It was a kaiser permanente is all I remember. In my experience just an isolated situation. Ive had kaiser most of my life besides the few years I strictly used miltary benefits and that was the only time and place where i had a bad experience at a kaiser.

I know that getting into the movie/shows world can be very very difficult, so maybe you could try joining a theatre group? Depending on where you live there probably are some groups that do theatre (not schools but just groups) and it's usually super cheap to join. It could give you some field experience and maybe if you're really really good someone might notice you

Or just don’t announce things in general. Nobody needs to know what you ate for lunch or what your exercise routine is. Lust for approval on social media is bad for your health.

This made me think of how pretty much everywhere I have worked we only get 40hrs of paid sick time at work. 365 days in a year and only 40hrs of it can you be sick and get paid.Fucking hilarious!

You dont need someone to help you learn this.
If there is garbage not in the garbage can throw away, if there is something on the floor pick it up and put it where it belongs, if there are dirty dishes wash them, if there is laundry all over your floor pick it up and move it to the laundry area.
TLDR, if something is not where it belongs stop what you are doing and pick it up

Reply to comment by Agitated_Year8521 in LPT: If you are considering learning a musical instrument or learning to sing, I highly recommend also learning the basics of a piano. Knowing your way around a keyboard will help you understand what you're doing on all other instruments and while singing. by BellyScratchFTW
In this situation, I think it applies the other way around. Pianists who learn the drum kit will have a better sense of rhythm and can be inspired to try out different things rhythmically.
Of course, it doesn't hurt to develop an ear for harmony and melody as a drummer since that's what you'll usually be accompanying.

They are sanatized nowadays with ozone atleast at the major airlines who should own the most up to date equipment. If not other options include the use of bleach which is usually the third option. I forget what exactly the second option was.

Piano doesn't really have any technique at the beginning stages. Push button, receive note. There's no reason why anyone couldn't play a simple melody with one finger provided they know what notes to push. If you're playing a brass instrument, a piano is really helpful at the start when you're building technique so you can hear what note you should be playing rather than hoping you're hitting the right partial.

Reply to LPT: Cut your pepperoni's by jjveld
Ok so apostrophes are used when two words are shortened into one or when showing possession.
Examples
- It is or it has = it's
- they are = they're
- one student's name
In your case, pepperoni is plural in Italian, but can be both singular and plural in English. If you do add s, it's pepperonis. No apostrophe.

I lived in a super tiny town in south dakota and I'd get in a car with just about anyone who offered. Most of them were my customers (I worked at the grocery store and the farm and ranch store), one time I had the sheriff drive me to work because I was walking in the snow.
Now I live in Tucson. I barely trust the bus driver.

All that stuff he mentioned doesnt get wiped down (ever) gets wiped down between flights pretty much always and gets a good cleaning overnight aswell especially now after all this Covid stuff happened.
As far as drinking the water. The water gets sanitized like every 3 days with ozone but it depends really on the airline. They each have their own standards. Ozone pretty much kills everything.
That last thing on the list well thats just speculation. Even then if there is such a situation were you need your oxygen mask on a plane that thing pretty much falls right in front of your face you cant miss it and it doesnt stretch out enough for the person in front of you to comfortably grab at it and pull it over their face.

Reply to comment by Apprehensive-Cold895 in LPT REQUEST:How do I live on the move and make money. by Apprehensive-Cold895
Not sure, tbh. I think it varies from company to company. Some require you to be stationary, others don't seem to mind as long as the job is done. You could also go the freelance route, but often times, like any self-employment, you're chasing money to make money.
