    Not too many third world dictatorships are worried about using their dictatorial power to help tenants avoid eviction during a pandemic.

    We were called back to the office, after 15 months at home, this week and it has been a ****ing nightmare.

    I use to take a bus from the Katy park and ride to downtown, and it look about 45 minutes. With the reduced bus passengers, it has now been merged into a three stop route, and it now takes 1.5 hours.

    So WFH, wake up at 8:55, at my desk by 9, log off at 6, for nine hours of work.

    Now, wake up at 7, shower, drive to the park and ride, arrive at my desk at 9, leave at five, get home at 6:30, for eight hours of work.

    2 hours less sleep, 1 hour less productivity, 1 hour less free time, all too risk getting a deadly disease.

    I feel burnt out already on Thursday on week 1 of being back.

    I'm sorry, man. It's incredible how so many companies simply refuse to make things more efficient.

    Something I didn't say in the Hangout thread: If you've made your bed, sleep in it.

    So My sister in law just called my wife, and had quite a bit to say. My SIL is a nurse by education, but she hasn't seen a patient in decades. Currently, she's in charge of nursing infomatics for one of the largest hospital systems in the nation. Her son is a hospitalist within the same system, and he's worked Covid wards since the first cases came about in Texas. This is the most stressed she's been since Covid first started. For a bit of color.....she owns some acreage in Oklahoma for deer hunting, and her physician son is a big time hunter and fisherman. They lean fairly well to the right of the political spectrum. I guess their system just got their "numbers" for the week, and it's the worst she's ever seen. She's been told that she AND her boss (another administrator of several decades) will probably have to roll up their sleeves and start seeing patients. It's THAT bad.

    This is quite possibly the best labor market since pre 08. Fire up that resume

    Selling an investment high is a fine strategy. I just did it a few months ago. And if somehow I couldn't kick out bad tenants for a limited period of time I would write it off and not worry too much about it but that's me. I don't cry like a b**** and beg over a minor, temporary inconvenience.

    I'm JK, I probably would b**** a little, but I'd be coo with it. Lulz.

    Somehow these are becoming more nonsensical each day.

    Selling, even at a high, is not a fine strategy when your strategy is to accumulate assets to pass to your kids. If you sell high and your goal is to be invested in physical assets instead of declining fiat currency, then you now have to take that money (post tax) and go buy at a high.

    Some folks have been living rent free in homes for over a year. That's not a limited amount of time.

    Kirk Cousins continues to refuse to reveal his vaccination status even though the NFL is mandating that players get vaccinated. Positive COVID-19 tests could lead to teams forfeiting games.

    The Vikings have the lowest level of vaccination among NFL teams.
