ISCPA's COVID-19 - What Businesses Need to Know from HR standpoint On-demand ( Recorded 4.10.20 - will not be updated)

We post new information almost daily. Please visit often!
HOW ARE YOU? Here are 10 things you may or may not want to know about me:

  1. I love Zoom meetings - because then I have to shower before work and not after.
  2. This cracked me up: 40 Tweets From Parents About Homeschooling Amid COVID-19
  3. My boys (15 & 18) are driving me crazy. I love them and am thankful for them, but I love them going to school. I am trying to remember that this is valuable quality time. I just keep forgetting :]
  4. My senior is not having a "real" graduation or any of that senior stuff, like his senior lacrosse game, etc. I am trying to be tough and supportive for him - but it is a gut-punch and makes me sad.
  5. COSTCO delivers and has for almost two years. GAME CHANGER! This will be my go-to forever, well after quarantine.
  6. I love my parents and am truly thankful they are safe and healthy at home. But I miss hugging my mom! Thank goodness for FaceTime!
  7. Our CPA society CEO group meets once a week via Zoom to share ideas and issues that affect us all. This has helped me a TON.
  8. Disneynature documentary ‘Elephant’ is on my must-see watch list.
  9. I bought a 1000-piece puzzle. I might have been overzealous. It is very hard. I am hoping to put it on my office wall after all this is over. So come visit me to see if I was successful! Peer pressure is a great motivator for me.
  10. I am SUPER THANKFUL for our ISCPA Crew. They are absolutely amazing. I want you all to know how hard we are working to get information in front of you... and answering any questions you may have. Please reach out with a thank you. Email Gwynne or Email Tracy! A nice word from a member goes a long LONG way for morale.
