My next shark tank pitch will be about a collapsible wall I can attach to my flight seat armrest to separate me from my neighbor

I just had dinner with some old friends and they are about to retire early. Part of their plan is to downsize their home, get a small condo and travel for 9-10 months a year. Does this seem crazy? I just can’t imagine it. I guess they figured the cost would be about the same but wouldn’t you miss the relationships. Wouldn’t your kids feel lost without having a sense of home? Anyone thought about this?

Hired as a Director into consulting but the client wants me to become "Chief of Staff" to his functional area. Should I consider that a demotion or promotion?

Working with a new manager who is a micro manager and also tends to ramble on about different things when asked fairly basic questions. I have a feedback chat with them coming up, how would you bring across these points in a tactful way? I’m probably going to be on this engagement for 6 months at least so taking that into account.

So I screwed up big time and took an associate role in my current job. I absolutely should have pushed for senior, but I was super eager for a new job and to be back near family. I'm about a month into this job, is it crazy for me to start looking around? I know I could be paid a lot more...

Has anyone heard of the Natalist? I found their Parent Plans book but the only reviews are directly on their site. Alternatively, are there any recommendations for books my husband and I can read to begin preparing to have a child? I can’t just get pregnant and figure it out, I need to try to go in informed (understanding that there’s no way to truly prepare). Expecting Better and Crib Sheets have very polar reviews and don’t quite fit the bill for me. TIA!

What’s the best way to prep for an interview day? What’s the format usually, with a Big4? Curious...

New joiner in a few weeks…Does MBB allow expensing for overtime meals when working from home?

1. We should wait until the results of the IRS audit to know the full picture 2. The IRS have been very unfair to the President 3. Why is the NYT releasing this information now? Why not six months ago? 4. All this shows is that President Trump knows how to outsmart the IRS like any billionaire 5. President Trump donates his salary 6. He had a loss in 2016 because of the terrible Obama economy 7. Sleepy Joe has dementia!

I am doing something I have never done before, but these are extraordinary times, and call for extraordinary measures. So...looking for “a few good men” that can hold a conversation as we WFH.

Does anyone have any creative suggestions for providing role clarity within teams. We work diligently to maintain job descriptions and communicate team changes broadly, but our employees are still craving some sort of additional reference point of how positions interact with one another. We have Sharepoint and we’re thinking of putting more job info there next to peoples names and titles. Look forward to suggestions!

He has a track record of growth at his current organization, and is looking to transition into healthcare consulting. Any advice, help, or referrals are appreciated!
