This is where in the past, individuals would have spent a lot of time trying to fill the gap and explain why they were not working 70 hours a week in their corporate gig. Truth is, Covid turned the employment market upside down for a bit, you might want to do a google search to validate. Always the agile worker, I filled my time with HR consulting and spent alot of time building a cabin. One of the best decisions I ever made, no regrets. Sometimes your given lemons in life..... find some sugar and make lemonade!
