Here’s another addition to our Top 5 series! There’s no better moment than right now to complete that to-do list since most of us have been on vacation. With all this unusual free time, streaming platforms have seen a huge uptick in profits globally. As we’ve all experienced, not much to do at home besides work, care for self (and/or family), and cook. Depending on who you ask, this newly discovered free time has been a luxury, but a transition of normality is afoot.
Cities have reopened their restaurants with indoor foot traffic referring to it as “Phase II”. Employers have provided steps for what the return to work will look like in the upcoming few weeks. NBA executives have provided the continuation date for the remainder of the season (July 31st). Time is running out to do what we want, when we want.
Whether you’ve been personally developing or vacationing during the quarantine, the reality is all of this will come to an end. For those who feel like they’ve seen everything or who are in need of something new to watch, our staff has provided a handful of shows binge-worthy while living out the remainder of this quarantine. Continue to strive for safety and health!
