@LincolnMotorCo I bought a Lincoln for peace of mind. Lincoln Roadside Assistance did not deliver today with the exception of Andrew C. He was kind, genuinely concerned about my situation, but ultimately did not have any tools to solve my problem. Thanks for trying Andrew!

@LincolnMotorCo on the bright side I met a number of interesting and colorful people at the bus stop on W Pico Blvd between Flower and Figueroa. A young woman who puked a few feet from me, A few of LA’s homeless. An aspiring standup comedian named Pamela.

@LincolnMotorCo I eventually signed up for AAA and they sent a tow truck in less than 30 minutes. Based on this I can’t and will never recommend Lincoln owners use Roadside Assistance in LA. #AAA>Lincoln

@LincolnMotorCo My 2020 Lincoln Corsair suffered a coolant leak around 2:30 pm. I contacted Lincoln Roadside Asst and 7 hours later I’m still stranded in Downtown LA #disappointed

I became an ICU nurse at the end of July in 2020, during one of the first peaks of covid when it was all still so new. I learned how to be a nurse behind a respirator and a yellow gown, amidst the constant beeping and hissing of ventilators that couldn't support failing lungs.

This outbreak is vital to understand. It shows what we still face if younger folks go unvaccinated.

47% of health care workers refused vax, while only 10% of residents did.

Result: 1 unvax'd HCW with COVID led to 20 HCWs & 26 residents infected, of whom 3 died (1 vaccinated).

Many of us are facing burnout. One of the best remedies against burnout is the feeling of being appreciated. This is harder to demonstrate in the virtual world. How has your company shown appreciation for you, or how have you demonstrated this for your employees?

"Advising at community colleges is grossly inadequate for transfer students and very complicated," Davis Jenkins said. "But in fairness to both four-year and two-year colleges, the resources for advising are very thin, especially at community colleges." https://t.co/GbQiSnVaMV

As a result of a new state law, far fewer California community college students will be required to take remedial courses starting fall 2019. Here's how the state system is bracing for the change, via @EdSource: https://t.co/Gz0I3po5Ut

A student facing eviction got the support he needed from @NOVAcommcollege and says “it gave me hope.” And that, right there, is why we are @hope4college - and he’s right “I am not alone.”
