A colleague asked me for my instagram and last evening I got like 20 notifications about them liking all my pictures. Is this weird or acceptable these days? And today, he wants to know if we can have lunch together. Would it be presumptuous of me to tell him I'm not interested in dating coworkers?

Liking 20 pics at once is weird any way you look at it.

I think it's pretty clear, so not presumptuous at all. But at the same time, they haven't spelled it out. What I'd do is make excuses till they get the point but I don't know if that's the best way lol

Grabbing lunch with coworkers is usually pretty casual and just grabbing something to bring back to the office. IDK if I would read anything into it. THO paired with the IG likes it's a bit Sus

Have lunch. Bring someone along if needed. Find out for yourself. It can only go 1 of 2 ways. Then you know.

Conversation about the serial “liking” of pics at best. Don’t lead on with a lunch.

20 pics off rip? RUN.

Better presumptuous now than chatting with HR later

Saw an article about the chilling effect that the Big Law salary raises are having on in house hiring since associates cannot bear to take the pay cut. Do we believe this? Of course if an in house role offers less than a first year salary it’s a tough pill to swallow, but what if the role offers in the mid-200s for a substantially better WLB? Thoughts??
