Heads up for folks in the USA; If you're not having a food emergency, please don't go to the grocery store on April 1st and 2nd. Wait until the 3rd. People who are on food stamps get their accounts recharged on the first of the month, and have likely been running on fumes.

I can name numerous instances in which I didn't follow at least 23 of these tips. Upon reflection at a distance I can see how it stunted my career, caused undue anxiety, depression and guilt. Here's hoping those starting out today learn faster than I did! patricia.no/2018/09/06/survi…
