    University administrator. Working at a university is awesome.

    Right now: Unclaimed Property Director for a financial services company

    - We reach out to our clients who haven't had activity in their bank or trading accounts for at least 3 years. If they don't become active, legally we have to surrender their assets to their respective state/territory (they can file a claim to get the assets back). It's found money. People don't know they have stuff out there.

    **IT IS FREE TO SEARCH YOUR STATE'S UNCLAIMED PROPERTY WEBSITE TO SEE IF YOU HAVE ASSETS, & FREE TO CLAIM THEM. DO NOT PAY SOMEONE TO DO THIS.**

    Starting Monday 7/28: Mutual Funds Operations Supervisor

    - My current job isn't safe. My team and I were part of an acquisition, and cuts are coming. My main associate and I were both passed over for a promotion. Going back to the company I started at after graduating college, using systems and doing things I did for 20+ years.

    My primary boss is out on his mandatory two-week vacation. He's coming back on Monday morning to a letter of resignation. My big boss is out on paternity. I probably won't see or talk to him again.

    Excited. Was miserable at this job for a while.

    Massage Therapist at a spa. My 8:30 appointment was a no call/no show, so right now I'm getting paid to lay on my heated table in my dark room with my salt lamp and post on 10C. 😀 Not too shabby for hump day morning.

    Thanks! Yeah things are trending upwards for me, health-wise and professionally. Now I need to find a brunette between 38-48 who's obsessed with PJ and Christopher Nolan movies lol.

    Funny, was talking with a buddy the other day about massages. He has back and leg issues, so he gets them all the time, and raves about them. I can't bring myself to do it. I'm heavy and have body positivity issues, but even more than that, I can't wrap my head around someone with their hands all over me.

    Ha, fingers crossed 🤞 this brunette comes along soon for you! Yeah people either really love them or they act really tense and keep their arms stiff as a board next to their bodies the whole time. In that case I usually lightly slap or give their arms a light shake and they loosen up.
