![]() Nope, I’m not complaining about my job, I love every second of it really, even the boring parts - and I am GRATEFUL - to have the opportunity to work each day while so many are unemployed, I am absolutely grateful. But on the weekends… I put all that aside and try to remember what it’s like to be me, I think we all do… So on the weekends, we wear bras. Those days have begun to run together, the monotony of the work, my outfits (yoga pants, tank top, hoodie), my meetings, are nothing to envy - I don’t turn my video on anymore during conference calls, no makeup, no Melissa on camera. Then, unsweetened iced tea in hand, I sit down to my laptop for what will be likely another 15 hour work day. It started a few months ago with monitoring the news for major tradeshows being cancelled or large tech corporations removing their participation at events - because here at Freemind, those announcements could have meant the difference between contracts we had and contracts we’d lose. Everything affects how we do business these days. The sun comes up and birds cry through my slightly open bedroom window - it’s time to check email, 4 different accounts, then Microsoft Teams for chats I missed overnight, Twitter is next to find out if the governor has anything new, and now the TV to click through CNN, CNBC, MSNBC, Bloomberg, and the local news stations. My morning starts anywhere from 8am to 11am these days, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been working since 7am already. ![]()
