Not just the "good of their hearts", we need legislation to completely overhaul "work" as we know it. Mandate that companies pay OT for anything over 32hrs/wk.

BUT, forward-thinking, effective CEOs would do well to realize that investing in their workers WILL drive down costs...thus raising profits AND get them some karma points. Look at Target vs. Walmart wages and how they've been faring in this "worker", or as I like to say, pay shortage. Also, UPS vs. FedEx.

People aren't meant to work 40 hours per week and perform at their best and meet all of life's other responsibilities. Maybe if inflation hadn't made it so that every household needs 2 full-time earners to afford the very basic of necessities. Middle-class families spend a huge chunk of their income to pay someone to literally keep their offspring alive so that they can break their backs making Jeff Bezos $205 million per day.

They worked us so much in the last few decades that we had no time to thrive, or to pay attention and engage in the world around us. Now in 2022 they're working us so much that the situation has become dire.

This is the revolution.

There's a specific type of loss associated with infertility, a bit of a grief for something you'll never have. It can be isolating. Especially so if there's a pregnancy that miscarries before most people even knew you were expecting. Have you talked to anyone who may have some insight here?

You're welcome, I'll follow and I'm looking forward to it!
