Stay home and stay fit
Working from home means more freedom. You can listen to your music on full blast, finish a project from bed, and answer a phone call from your front yard if you want.

Wondering how you can balance your work-from-home life with fitness? We’ve got you covered.
With the recent COVID-19 outbreak, we’re living in a whole new world. While some folks are still coming into the workplace, many of us are now working from home.
Working remotely is an adjustment. It might sound great, but it’s not all Netflix and PJs. Here are a few ways to stay on track. (more…)
Maybe you got a job offer, have to move cross-country to be with your spouse, or just really want out of your job. Whatever the reason, you want to call it quits. That means it’s time to give a two-week notice.

Desk job got ya down? Here’s a few tips.
Day after day you sit in your cubicle, shuffling papers and filling out forms, waiting on other people to get their job done so you can finish up projects. And maybe scrolling through a few more Buzzfeed articles than you should be. Or you sit around in meetings where nothing is getting done, thinking about what’s for lunch.
In short, you’re bored of your office job.
