Every 6 months unless I seriously sweat/spill something. Maybe 20+.

I used to dry clean my suits every 2-3 wearing but it really destroys the suits to do that. Really unless they’re stained or stinky they don’t need cleaning

I legit wear jacket over and over again, unless I sweat beyond belief, go hookah or it's been over 6+ months I'll dry clean it.

6 unless I spill something significant on them

6 months on average wear, no spills

3-5

Pants every week so that's 3-4 wears. Jackets every month or so but I also don't wear them unless I have a client meeting. So roughly about 10 wears.

Agree with these later answers....if you’re dry cleaning your suits that much, you’re ruining them

Depends on the suit

4-6 months of wear unless I spill something

Already spoke with a partner who wanted something done this morning for him to review and then we discuss again. Sent it to him about 4 hours ago. Should take him half an hour to review max. At what point can I check in with him to see when we can catch up so I’m not waiting in the office all day?

Left PA and started industry remotely. Haven’t been in the office. Met my team one time. Tips are to always be on video for even the smallest of calls. Take a ridiculous amount of notes. In downtime, go through your notes and come up with questions by reperforming old work. Set up recurring question sessions with your team so you know what to do next time. Set up performance meetings even monthly because it’s hard to get a gauge on your performance

Just discovered a public slack channel (that very much should have been private) that a few women at my work have been using to bitch about the co-workers they don’t like. There’s a lot of very mean posts about several of the CDs, account people, producers etc. There’s quite a few hateful posts about me and my partner too 🙈 should I tell them?

Do you think it is time to find another job when your PIC is a micro manager, never trained you when you got hired, expects you to know things no one ever told you about in the first place, texts and calls you in the morning with questions you don’t have an answer to (I work evening shift so I’m mostly sleep when he reaches out), assumes the worst about everything, plots against you anyway, lies all the time, they don’t even do their job, they leave their trash behind etc. gives me anxiety.

Had only one call with my TL in first two months. Few weeks later, on workday I noticed that my TL got reassigned. Contacted him and have setup regular catch-ups. He dropped a bomb that he is leaving and I will be reporting to partner. Partner is time poor and no feedback is offered. This is my first consulting role and I feel I am not receiving enough support. Few people are helping to learn the ropes but WFH has exacerbating the problem. How do I get a TL to receive pointed feedback? PwC

Any suggestions?
