36F Las Vegas. Alllllllll my friends are in relationships or tied down with kids. I was and ran for the hills (minus the kids). 😮‍💨 That was 3 years ago though 😅. I tend to be more at peace with my dog and cat at home or going to the gym. I love going out, but I’m also Team Homebody! Anyone else just enjoying the Team Homebody Single life but also finding it a bit mundane, but also love their freedom to do whatever, but also want a cuddle/movie/road trip/travel buddy? 😂 Shits conflicting 🥺

Has anyone dealt with the death of a parent while working in public accounting? How did it go? My dad is probably going to pass soon and trying to prepare, I guess.

I have a awesome design for luggage that is designed for people that usually fly first class. It keeps all clothes in travel on straight during any flight and optimizes the use of first class luggage

It’s hard to come across good news about India, but must agree that they have handled coronavirus quite well. As of last week, 1.6 million tests vs 6000 in US; full travel screening. Way to go!

Who should get my loyalty? United or American?

Woke up at 3:30 AM for an early morning flight.. Paid a small fee to upgrade to a window seat so that I could sleep. Was woken up not once, but TWICE by the middle seat guy opening MY window

Hey 👋 just joined here and my second post . I started my construction business now for over two years working on residential renovations and looking to make the jump to commercial construction! Looking for a mentor who is knowledgeable of Commercial construction and can help me understand the ins and outs of the industry here in San Diego. Please reach out if you’re in commercial industry and would like to help. Would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏻

How do i find out if I will be happier divorced or more unhappily staying married. 2 kids; 2 & 4 YO. They don’t hear the arguments after bed time and don’t understand the bruises yet but I know it’s just a matter of time. It would be so much harder not seeing my kids everyday than living with the pain, loneliness and lost friendships. But I’m tired. And so sad. Lost. So alone. Does anyone have something that turned it around? He changed? You changed so he did? Ayahuasca retreat maybe?

Secretly glad October is coming to a close. I have two friends doing "Sober October" and I love them but it's insufferable. They keep saying things like "Ugh this is so hard, I don't know how you ...

My friends think it's cool that I "get to" travel all the time, they don't get how disruptive my job really is... #flightattendantproblems

My parents got divorced 6 years ago and my dad kinda gave up on life. His American dream was to graduate with an actuary degree (which he did 2 years ago) and find a corporate job but it never happened...He gave up on life to a point that has no food and is behind rent because he doesn't want to get a $15 an hour job or a maintenance/painting job. He doesn't do drugs or alcohol and my wife is going to kill me if she finds out again that I gave him money again.

Why doesn't my wife get that it's just me and the great dane now. She making this awkward wanting some room in the bed.

Taking a side trip from San Diego (work trip) to Palm Springs in mid January by myself. I guess I’ll rent a car and drive there. I’d like to do a day trip to Joshua Tree. Should I stay in downtown Palm Springs? An outlying resort? Any other day trips? Female solo traveler. Also debated flying from SD to Santa Barbara instead of Palm Springs. Just want to be outside and enjoy good food, wine, scenery, hiking, relaxation.

Started at a big firm in July with high hopes- in the career path I wanted and I would be joining with other new grads.
After onboarding, it’s as if my team forgets about us every day. The training is non existent, there doesn’t seem to be any initiative to invest in new hires, my manager scolds me for not knowing enough yet gives no direction. I don’t want to waste time (colleagues mentioned it doesn’t get much better from here). Do I embrace the suck or look for other opportunities?

WFH/Layoff/Security
Hi,
CCTC including all benefits is 16.57 with 8.3 YOE, primarily focused on Manual Testing.
Is it worth looking for another opportunity?
I am afraid after seeing layoffs news of EPAM, Publicis Sapient & most of the other companies calling employees in the office.
I love my WFH in PwC India & base location of Kolkata. & the best thing is stability in PwC India, they never lay off!!

Brand new baby lawyer dumb question - I am tasked with drafting response to request to produce. How long should this take? And follow up… how do I bill this?

Looking for feedback on employment with Amtrust and/or Plymouth Rock if anyone has experience working for either company in the Casualty Claims department.

I dated someone 15 years older than me and he always lectured me about what did I do wrong. From small things like where to squeeze ketchup on my plate to big things like how to live my life and pivot to a career that his “friends” do so well in right now. Almost everything I did or said he’d follow with some criticism. I ghosted him after another lunch date full of such lectures.

Who here has actually made a genuine connection from being in this group? Let’s hear your stories 🍵

I've been avoiding breaking up with someone (I've been dating off and on for a year) for the past few weeks because I can't decide the best way to do it. We're not compatible long-term. He's not seeing anyone else and I've told him I'm seeing other people but he's starting to have relationship expectations for me since we reconnected a few months ago. Any tips for having the conversation? I'd prefer to do it via text but I know people say it's not appropriate and it should be over the phone.

Any fishes up and looking to get to know each other? 32, male, straight, 6’4”, athletic, etc.
I am a pretty good cook and have found a recent love for cooking Asian food in woks. I dream of a mountain house with gas stoves, and a sun room. Though would accept a condo for more sleep these days haha

Bored on a Sunday night, any female fish feel like chatting

Has anyone actually found love at work? My best friend started at a new company 6 months ago and she just took an offer somewhere else because she and her senior manager fell for each other. After 6 months she knew it was worth leaving her job for! I've been working at the same place for three years and I went on one date with a guy who didn't even work with me he just worked in the building. What am I doing wrong.

Anyone in SF here??

Where do professionals 30+ meet people these days besides dating apps?!

Feeling a deep void in close human connection after letting go a relationship that was lacking a future (I was interested in something more, he was unsure). Can’t stop thinking of reaching out and need strength to just stay with the loneliness and have hope for the better times. Would appreciate support. It’s been 2 weeks but I feel bouts of extreme sadness and desire to have someone to share my life and days with.

Orl, Fl males where you @. 32F here

35F divorced with a kid. I think I will never get remarried or in a serious relationship again. Lots of men don't like dating women with children. At my age either the guys are past their prime, divorced/ing and have to provide half their income to their first wife. Many with kids live on the same street as their ex wives so they can be close to their child. I'm not comfortable dating guys like that. On the flip side there are the ones that were never married, which by this age cont
