Anyone’s work being affected by coronavirus?

My new word for the day, although I'm not sure when I'll get to use it, lol.

Yeah, it's a pretty specific job description but I'm not sure if it should go on a resume.

I suppose it depends on the job one has applied for.

The word reminds me of an insurance account I underwrote early in my underwriting career. It was a porn studio that wanted employed lawyers professional liability. Part of my file had to include a printout of the web site but of course work’s net nanny blocked it (and putting their home page in The file was probably a bad idea anyway...). So I printed out the Wikipedia page for them instead.

I suppose, but I'd guess any job where it would be applicable probably doesn't require a resume, I think word of mouth would do. Ba-Dum-Dum!

Just an fyi - the word Fluffer is used in the porn industry for a specific task/job description. I found this out when I kept calling my little fluffy dog that and dh kept laughing at me. Finally told me what it meant, I didn't believe him so I googled, and sure enough...

OMG.

Tradd, this training sounds terrific. And two 24 inch monitors--I am so jealous! (We've been working at home now since 2008.)

I’m working with my new monitors now. Boss is also getting me a travel monitor. You definitely need two monitors.

First full day went well, but my head is swimming. System is totally different from what I’m used to. Boss uses Excel like you wouldn’t believe. Does all sort of programming and coding himself. I’m pretty computer literate, especially compared with the coworkers I’ve had in recent years, but he just blows me out of the water! I got hands on a bit the end of the day. We worked from 10 to 7 with a half hour for lunch. My laptop arrived today. So tomorrow I’ll be working on boss’ computer while he’s setting my laptop on. You would be amazed how he has automated a lot of processes. So much stuff that I used to have to do manually.

We do stuff a lot of the same way.

Went out to dinner again. Boss’ wife is having some back issues and can’t stand to cook. So we went out to Bubba’s, related to Texas Roadhouse. OMG, the burger had bacon in it. So yummy. Lunch today was a good frozen pizza that boss and I shared.

Alan for the win today!

This has been a very educational thread in far more ways than I expected.

Enjoy the adventure of your training, Tradd.

I was worried I might offend some folks when I posted. Thanks for the laugh!
