What happens when work and personal life collide in unexpected and challenging ways? Join us in this episode of Jaded HR as Cee Cee and Warren share their heartfelt personal stories. Cee Cee opens up about her postpartum health situation and the tough task of managing her cat's diabetes during an already hectic workweek. Warren sheds light on his dog's severe anxiety, revealing the surprising dosages of medication required to keep it under control. They also discuss the peculiar effects of ADD medication and its impact on focus and physical well-being, all while aiming to make your workday feel a bit more relatable.
We then touch on a poignant and tragic story that shakes up the notion of workplace awareness. A Wells Fargo employee passed away unnoticed at her desk for several days, prompting a much-needed conversation about the implications of remote work, workplace dynamics, and the necessity of a supportive network. This heartbreaking incident serves as a springboard for discussing the importance of community and vigilance, whether you're working from home or in the office.
In our final segment, we touch on Australia's new "Right to Disconnect" law. Kevin O'Leary from the TV show "Shark Tank" weighs in on his opinion. Balancing work and personal life gets even trickier when work communications spill over into personal time, a topic we explore through real-life anecdotes and controversial opinions. Join us for a candid, heartfelt, and sometimes humorous discussion designed to make your HR challenges a little more bearable.
