Heads Up: “Amtrak Trains Cancelled without Notice”

“Dear PoPville,

I figured that it would be helpful to give people a heads up if it applies to them. I booked tickets home and back for the holidays through Amtrak (Northeast Regional), but my trip changed, so I went to modify my reservation. When I logged into the site, it turns out that Amtrak had canceled my ride back to DC, but I never received a notification about the cancellation. It turns out that they have canceled a number of trains that are running on the day after Christmas, but they have not notified anybody about it yet – my parents had booked a ride on a different train on the same date, and, lo and behold, they double-checked the site, and their reservation had been cancelled too. I’m not sure if they have canceled trains on any other days around Christmas, but I just wanted to let people know about this so that nobody ends up stranded around the holidays.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
