30M anyone want to meet for drinks this weekend? Open to networking

29M single looking to meet some new people and grab some drinks !

I went through my gf’s phone and found out she had a crush on my best friend when we first started dating (over a year ago). I suspected this at first but it hurts to have it confirmed and see her telling her friends about him. I’m not sure how I should feel since I went out of line to look through her phone.

if youve been talking to someone for 3 months and u catch them in a lie by stalking their friend on IG, should you call them out or is that too crazy

Single women, how do you prefer to meet men during these precarious times? Dating apps can be a slog. Any female fish here want to meet up for a drink? 33/M/recent transplant from NYC. Send me a DM!

Could you seriously date someone who isn't on the same financial level as you?

Went on a short coffee date with a person who was nice, but I just don’t think we’re compatible. What’s a kind text I can send to explain, after they said we should see each other again?

Met a great woman this weekend. We are going on a date at the end of the month. Both have crazy schedules end of this month and next . I can’t stop thinking about her :) happy pride 🏳️‍🌈 ❤️

I think I just experienced the most consulting thing ever...having a PRD conference call, one guy is at airport security, puts his phone through on the belt and through the scanner without hanging up

If you had to describe your dating life in one word, what would it be?

In my 40s, here in the larger NYC area for a couple weeks visiting family. Male, athletic. If anyone's interested in chatting (admittedly in a playful mood currently, so that's my current preference), drop me a DM.

Yet another friend/colleague got engaged this weekend. It’s become impossible to celebrate people’s relationships. I’m a POC woman and I’ve been single since coming to the US 10 yrs ago. A handful of men have been interested but they were not Christian or back in my country. So many childless, single women in my church and I’m terrified I’ll be them soon. My non-Christian family doesn’t understand why I’ll only date Christians, or the dating scene in big cities, so they put pressure on me

What are fun things to do for 2nd date in Chicago?

Are there any fully remote lawfirms, ie you don't have to live in the state they have offices? I recently left a large lawfirm to go in-house which came with a huge paycut that is not going to be sustainable long term, but needed a remote position to be able to move. I'd like to keep my current job part-time but get back in a lawfirm too.

What was your final round interview like? Have two coming up with two MD’s at the same firm and trying to be easy breezy about it.

The thought of Attorneys talking down on Paralegals is sickening.

I’m interviewing with another firm next week. Has anyone made a switch like that before? How did you do it? I work in a small criminal firm now. Interview is with a same size/practice area firm.

Do you think you'll stay in public accounting for your entire career? What areas or roles do people typically exit to?

I passed my last CPA exam last week. I’m still shock! It doesn’t feel real.

We found love in a hopeless place...

I’ve been having a super hard time concepting lately, especially knowing that the “concept” will mostly serve as a sticker to slap on the cover of a CVA and the top of a website. I feel like every pharma concept I’ve ever seen or created becomes so cheesy once it appears in tactics. Does anyone have any examples of HCP creative (non-DSA) that is both impactful and translates well into pharma tactics?

Moving to Minneapolis. Does anyone have a contact at McCann? What other agencies are out there?

Only 66 of us here?! Haha

It seems like there are a bunch of really cool new apartment buildings. Probably too expensive to get a1bed but considering finding a roommate to make them affordable. What’s your dream DC apartment building if money didn’t matter?

DMV employers with reasonable hiring programs- What large employers in the area who hire mid-senior level tech-adjacent consulting talent have the most reasonable hiring practices?

Please share your own experiences- what employers do this, and which ones recognize there comes a time when you’re just wasting the time of your potential recruits
