I'm having trouble. I have a client who is going from a climbing company, to a fitness company. They have a product that lets them expand from where they are.

I miss school relationships, where it just pure flirting and relationships based on your personality. But in college it was based on how rich is yr dad and background, car etc. In corporate it's about salary,caste,background, house, tech stack etc. I want the classic relationships back.....now it's just existing in movies and TV series not in reality.

HR opinion: Do I have any leverage as a hospital nurse case manager in negotiating earned time? I have 15 years within the organization, left for 10 months to be remote during the pandemic while sorting out childcare as immunocompromised family helped.

I thought I’d have the upper hand with the nursing shortage but I’m getting the “rules are rules” response. Help!?!

I’m working in a large fund; market neutral public market strategy funds; am about to be recommended for a promotion to associate. However, an analyst position just opened up internally in Credit, which is where I aspire to be for the next ten years. More growth and more intellectual challenge. I’m conflicted about applying for a lateral transfer and losing out on a promotion. Will I be missing out a promotion or should I negotiate a promotion as part of my application to this role ?
