Person sends a meeting invite at 11:53pm for a 7:30am meeting. The majority on onshore people won't even know about it until it's too late

Not exactly sure.
TIL that apparently school phobia exists and it’s a valid reason for kids to not attend school at some locations.

Too bad my parents didnt believe in it and I’m sure my kids say the same thing.

So many times when I am using the weather app on my phone it pops up and asks me to rate it. Since they've updated the radar into a mess I haven't gotten that.

Since there was some discussion on the topic. Here is a really good podcast on the plug door departure a week ago and how a flight crew handles such emergencies.

Oldest son is a Huskie, and is everything I hate about UI, KU, UT, et al fandom. Of course, it doesn't help much that I attended Wazzu.
A while back in our family pool when UNI was doing well he was arguing that "baby schools" like UNI don't even belong in the tournament, knowing full well that his stepbrother and wife are graduates of UNI. Also refuses to participate any time UW is not dancing, and tells us that if we don't take ISU all the way we're not "true fans". And that's all just on top of all the crap I got from HS classmates who went to UW.
I lived about 5 miles from. UW, across Lake Washington. I HATE UW.

Since you are probably too nice to write him out of the will, make a sizeable donation to Wazzu in his name. Get the last word in lol.

I'm supposed to be working from home.

I REALLY just want to nap and clean and get something going in the kitchen to start warming this place up.

I have a regular dr appt at 10:45. So far, no notice of canceling. Guess I'll just do my WFH thing like SaraV and see what happens. Even though I planned to bring home everything I'd need yesterday (before the partial campus shutdown announcement) I didn't think about updating my voice message greeting to say I'd be away from office. Did remember about 9 last night to email someone in Ireland who was going to call today.

You can't change the message remotely any more?

I saw yesterday that ISU was going to "online learning" today. Did they send "non-essentials" home today? They cancelled classes maybe 3 times in my 30 years there. I was lucky to have vacation time to use each time, but I remember a lot of the clerical staff in my dept would work early & through their lunch to comp back the time they were told to take.
