10 years ago today I had my tubes tied. It was the best thing I ever did for myself. It took years standing up to practitioners, reiterating my preference, and fighting for medical decisions over my own body. Ten years later and it was all worth it. No hormones, no condoms, no risk of making the hard decisions some I know have had to make. For anyone contemplating it, for anyone fighting with their docs, don’t give up if it’s what you really want.

In the office today, NY biglaw factory. Somewhere, echoing down the halls of my floor, is someone hacking away with a terrible cough for the last hour.

This guy I’m dating wanted to have lunch with me today. He came over to my place with his favorite childhood meal from his favorite local deli (a greasy cheesesteak with peppers and onions and home fries 🤢) and wanted me to try it for lunch. Just looking at it made me feel sick to my stomach. I have a very sensitive stomach, and I can’t really eat fried or greasy foods. I tried a bite, but I couldn’t eat it. He immediately got offended, ended the date and left. Did I do something wrong??

Any thoughts and how would you describe this preference? Thanks!

With so many people reportedly leaving consulting, I’m wondering how common is it to leave for less TC? MBB comp $200k+ at 27. Do most people get increases above that or just go to jobs sitting at $150k but that “have better WLB”? *Not looking to include those that switch to industries with intentional disregard about comp (eg public sector, charity, teaching etc).

It’s restructuring season. KPMG, GT, and other firms have begun announcing layoffs. Everyone should take some time to polish off their resume. It’s a cold world out there and loyalty means nothing to your employer. Here’s to hoping that everyone lands on their feet and I’ll see y’all in a happier future.

I’ve been in publishing for more years than I care to admit and I’m just tired of it. I don’t want to do it any more.

What else is there for me to do that’s not publishing or marketing/advertising? Any suggestions?
