After 3 years of freelancing, I just landed my first in-house journalist job!! I’m so happy!

Is there a lot of attrition at Guidehouse right now?

Planning to move to an in-house comms manager role in finserv. What’s a reasonable base salary plus bonus range for 10 years experience based in NYC? Thank you!

Can anyone share their experience working in the online gaming industry (RummyCircle etc. kind)? What kind of work culture can you expect at such organisations?

TIA

Staying at a Hilton in NC and discovered a massive blood stain on one of the pillows after one night. The stain was clearly there before I arrived, but I did not notice until the next day. How many points?

What is the general consensus on online I/O psychology programs? I’m looking to pivot into HC consulting and am strongly considering USC’s online MAPP or Harvard Extension School’s I/O Psychology graduate program.

Can any1 say when can we expect results of online assessment imocha test at Capgemini

Husband and I have been TTC for almost a year. His semen analysis came back all normal with the exception of morphology at 1% (Kruger Strict criteria). Anyone have insights into morphology and it’s impacts on fertility? From what I’ve read and after talking to our fertility specialist morphology seems subjective.

What is your perceived risk level for contracting COVID these days? Are you back to work? Masking? My clinic still requires testing in spite of vaccination status.

Made a career pivot to another agency. During the interview we talked about how it may start as initially a "step backwards" (pay/benefits) but has potential for more long term growth. First day was yesterday. Had no communication about when or where to show up, sat in an empty office for about half an hour before a couple people finally showed. No phone call or email. Sent an email to the founder, no response. I could easily get my old job back if wanted.

What would you do in this situation?

Any one using other state car in Pune? Do you have noc of your State?

On the news, there was a report that "stress" causes negative health effects. Um. OK. Don't people feel "stress" just by being alive? Like, what would be the control group that you could measure the results against? I don't know why, but it always makes me wonder

Just found out the "roadside assistance" for my Tesla doesn't cover emergency battery recharging. Wish I realized that before it became an issue

Can I work at a radio station if I have an accent (not super thick, but still noticeable)? Not necessarily talk radio, more like a DJ (or whatever they call them these days)

What has been your worst experience working for a news agency?

What's the most ridiculous news you've seen this year?

I’m working on starting my own online show where I act as the news anchor and cover what I think are the most important stories of the week, but I feel like I lack the personality/presence to carry out that role.

The future of the TV industry is not looking too bright, what is the best way to adapt to the rise in popularity of other types of media?

Has anyone seen the movie Spotlight? It made me think again about the passion to find the perfect news, the one that would be really helpful and necessary to society.

Anyone out there do any Broadcast Operations work for live tv as a full-time job? If so, what are you making? I have trying to build a case for salary around $100k or in that range.

The new Meta Metaverse looks... interesting to say the least. Has anyone looked further into it?

SO excited about the new iPhone 14! I currently own an 11 Pro Max and never really upgraded because this one was still fine, but I feel like I want something newer. Has anyone purchased the 14 yet?

I’m finding that traditional news becoming obsolete is leading to management taking their frustrations out on staff. The result is a mass exodus in the industry, at least in my area. Are you experiencing the same?

Tell me your craziest experience working with a TV network. Here comes mine:

I'm American, but my family is mostly Colombian. I was told my aunt and cousins would come here for 2 weeks. I discovered they were going to be paid to appear in a famous Hispanic TV show, where a "judge" receives a case, hears the plaintiffs and defendants and renders a verdict. But of course, it's all fake and payed 😂 turns out she wanted me to go there (even though I don't work for that TV network) so she's sure she'll be paid at the end of the show. Wth did I just do.

Let's compete! What's the craziest fake news you've heard so far and how many relatives of yours believed it?

Has anyone here ever worked as a foreign correspondent? What was it like?

The station I work at is down at least 15 positions. Some jobs have been open for two years.

The remaining staff is required to step up.

Additional positions are opening up as contracts are either broken or expire.

How are people able to keep their mental health up when their station isn’t hiring people they need and refuse to pay living wages to potential prospects or promote those remaining?

Are there any good conservative sources out there that you think people haven't heard enough about? I'm not against liberal viewpoints or anything. I just think they seem more vocal than the conservatives and I would like to find a balance

Ok, my favorite singer comes THIS WEEK for an interview ❗❗❗
I'm excited about the opportunity of proving my capabilities, but I also don't want to miss the chance of getting a picture or maybe an autograph.
Is it ok if I ask for it? Or is it too invasive?

One of my direct reports has asked about going part time. They currently manage special reports in a bi-weekly publication, working closely with sales, freelance writers, and an internal designer. Job duties are primarily project management and editing/proofreading. As the first read on articles, they need to have an understanding of the material (business/regulation). Has anyone had experience with job sharing in this type of a role?
