Something to Brighten Your Week: PL;DR 8/20
After nearly a year and a half of a pandemic that doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon, many of us are feeling some serious burnout. When you throw in the events that have been happening across the world, it can be difficult to want to even get out of bed, let alone work.
We’re right there with you and appreciate the challenges you may be facing day by day. Today, we’re going to focus solely on the positives going on right now. We’re in no way trying to make light of the very serious situations happening all over the globe, but instead just trying to provide a little comedic relief to help boost your mood this Friday morning.
Let’s dive into it.
The PL;DR is brought to you in partnership with xAmplify.
