Alright folks. Kamala v Mike. Thoughts?

Any antitrust experts want to opine on the FB news? I’m certainly no expert, haven’t read the actual complaint, and am all for competition laws, but it does strike me as odd that the FTC is coming in long after the fact to scrutinize certain acquisitions.

Any thoughts on how to handle working with coworkers who are very friendly/well-liked by most but are utterly mediocre at what they do and just want to coast? Makes me feel like I’m the difficult one.

In a typical advertising creative team structure, who vets the new hires? ECD? CD? Trying to get some clarity as I work at a small shop with CD being the highest title.

Signed up for improv theater to break my presentation anxiety. I'm freaking out a bit - but hopefully it will help. Wish me good luck.

How does one get on at a family office?

I’ve been working in finance strategy / transformation consulting for the last two years and would like to pivot into construction project management. Looking to get some insights of if something like this is even feasible or if anyone else has done something similar.

My 2nd round of interview for AWM VP position got cancelled with #JPMC at the end minute. HR said the position is put on hold by Business.. any similar experiences? Anytime HR came back with interview schedule later in such cases?

/the 7 people that upvoted it. Too many consumers around here!!!

Have layoffs been finished for the year or are more coming?

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?

I think I need Ex bankers as friend and accountants. I need people who we can discuss deals in the swift world with from time to time. I need people with great ideas in my life

Any places you would recommend for a good massage in center city (not looking for happy endings)

What do I need to know about making the switch to freelance?

Anyone from Huron on the group? I see booming Oracle Cloud things on there, want to know more - Risk and Controls guy from PwC.

Was curious on the status of the border wall: (1) only 5 miles of new new wall built since 2016, (2) being paid for from our military budget and the treasury forfeiture fund, not Mexico. Are you tired of winning yet? 😂😂😂

Is Trump saying that he’s innocent and therefore so is Brett Kavanaugh really a good strategy?

Ok, I’m gonna say this. Schools should open. Now hear me out. My wife is a family doctor, she is working insane hours, she is treating covid patients, and there is a lot of days when she has to stay at the hospital without coming home. My neighbour works in a local grocery store, so he has been at work since the Day 1 of lockdown. So if you need medical help, or want to eat, it’s ok for those people to be at work, but their kids have to stay home? Cont’d >>

The latest Democratic narrative is quite cute: Trump purposely gets COVID, to get cured by some magic potion not available to the public, to come back an American hero so he can get sympathy votes. Yo, you guys listen to yourself? Like pause and reflect. This is not going to end well for the left in November man

How does this bowl feel about tomorrow?

It's funny how Democrats are getting absolutely rocked in this election but still want to make jokes. Must be in that numb phase

Hey All - Can we agree to make a collective effort to reduce the repeat content here? Things are moving quickly and we don’t always have time to check, but having 2-4x of the same link/tweet/topic splits any convo and exhausts interest in engaging multiple topics bc new ones are hard to find.

Are there any conservatives like me left anymore? The ones who are pro-democracy, pro checks and balances in governance, support liberal markets, have a global outlook that reinforces the soft power we’ve projected abroad for 70 years?

All there’s left of my party is a collection of vacuous bumper sticker slogans like ‘lock her up’, peddling conspiracy theories, and chest-thumping support for ‘law and order’ — without actually respecting the law, norms of governance and our institutions.

Funny how Top Gun had a diverse group of actors, (race/gender) etc; (Female fighter pilot, Black supporting actor, Asians in the test pilot squadrons etc;)

But had no articles on wokism etc; thoughts?

All these "new members" all sounding the same coming out of nowhere in droves before an election all spamming the same Trump/right wing conspiracy content...people aren't stupid.

We've seen this trick before.
