Am I in the wrong for staying to myself at work until I’m given stuff to do or should I try to network with my coworkers to learn things?

What’s the overall feeling about presentation attire? Suit and tie?

Seniors and above, are you FB friends and/or do you follow on IG or Twitter the people who work on your teams currently?

Hey there! I’m looking for a stylish work bag/tote that will fit a 13inch MacBook and a few other items. I will be walking to work, so I want it to be comfortable to carry. Thanks in advance!

I made a mistake at work yesterday and my boss was being super mean about it. How do I move past this?

please god, i am barely hanging on with motivation to complete my work, why do i have an over eager intern assigned to me :/

Most of the time “what do you do for work?” is just an innocent, getting-to-know-you question

But sometimes there’s a tone people have where I can tell they’re asking so they know how much respect to give me lmfao

I have a member in my team who is a trump supporter. Im from Europe and I’m surprised to see there are supporters even among consultants. Or should I not be?

How do you let go of the need to be liked by subordinates? I have a people pleasing streak.

Partners , where do you typically get your suits from these days ?

Originally from Italy, I've been out to anyone at my former jobs in Europe without ever worrying about the reactions of my coworkers. Now I'm Asia and just started a new job, but one of my colleagues (also an expat) made a very weird statement about gay people having more chances of developing cancers (?!?!?), so I feel a bit skeptical about talking about my private life... The problem is that anybody else seems to be so welcoming and open-minded, except for this one guy. Any advices?

I put in a lot of effort to show my client properties that fit their requirements, but they ended up working with a different agent just because they wandered across an open house. I'm so frustrated right now. Has anyone else experienced this?

When do you think it's the right time to tell people in your office that you are expecting?

What are good house warming gifts to give to your clients?

How weird is it for a woman to go out to a bar or restaurant alone, enjoy her meal, people watch, maybe strike up a conversation or 2, and go home ? I feel like it’s weird now days for someone to be out without company and not be staring down at their phone.

When you ping GDM with a question and they immediately go offline...

Literally just had a performance discussion with a jr staff person yesterday. Today I get a deliverable that is shit and oh he needs to fly out early today. #fml

Think about your best manager…what traits do / did they possess? What made them shine as leaders?

Today I started a new gig with a new AD partner. He’s smart, contributed tons of great ideas (concepts AND lines), and he’s respectful and collaborative. I won the AD lottery today!

Hi. People Manager here. I've been one for 12 years now and I encourage my team to not be "yes" people. At this time, it feels like my manager wants me and my team to be yes people for her. How do I deal with this? I've never been a yes person and I don't preach this to my reports. I don't know what to do. Help?

Finally lost my mind after two years and told an inept superior to “shut the fuck up” in a meeting. Pretty sure I’m going to be fired after this awkwardly silent last couple hours...

Who are these people who walk around the airport talking to people on speakerphone? They keep it close to their head, why not just use the phone like a human person?

Where does everyone offload photos from their phone? I’m out of storage

I have a 9hr connection at Heathrow. Once I check the bag in again, can I leave the airport and come back later?

Do MBB firms reimburse travel to/from client offices in the HQ city?

I've worked in hospitality for two years, but now the travel restrictions are lifting and I'm nervous; how busy does it usually get around Christmastime?

Anyone that works at Anthem or United Health Group able to tell me how or what they’re looking for in a therapy reviewer. I’ve applied to numerous positions… and nothing. I’ve even kept ATS in mind but haven’t gotten much of a response.

Hello all, I'm a junior machine learning engineer and contract is about to end in about a month. So I would love to know some opportunities for which I can apply or get a refferal for the same.

Thank you.

Anyone know of a good regression tool to test Responsive Design. Tried HaunterJS looking for something similar

Hello everyone,

I'm a second-year undergraduate student, majoring in computer science at the University of Cincinnati.

I would appreciate your support and thank you in advance for any opportunities, connections, or advice you can offer.

Hi Doordash 🐠, has there been discussions of layoffs? Is DD planning on doing any? Thanks, from a potential hire

I left my old firm and started my own firm in September. I have already started to get client referrals and so far I am working from my home only - because it’s COVID time and people know Zoom now. I do estate planning and elder law, which lends itself to meeting clients at their locations when needed. I had a client drop off documents I need to review at my house this week and this was fine with the client. Do any attorneys here open their own home to clients ever for meetings?

Looking for new friends to hang out with in Oakland.

My old friends are getting boring 🤷🏽‍♀️🫢

How is OW for Energy practice in ME? Relative positioning in the market? Also, firm culture and WLB? Thanks in advance.

Hey all - 2 years in consulting so far as a fairly "type b" personality - relaxed, uncompetitive, enjoy socializing with my colleagues. To be clear, this is not the same as being lazy or irresponsible - I am diligent and do my work well.

Nonetheless I think we can generally say finance/professional services etc. reward "type a" habitudes on its face.

Thought it could be fun/funny/supportive to share experiences as the chiller brains in these anxiety-fueled fields.

Considering buying a 3 week put to the UVXY ($55 strike) it spiked 50% this week in the past 5 years it only spiked higher than this twice; when shut down first hit (x10) and in 2018 (66%) then it went down within a week.

Y’all think this makes sense?

Where are people investing now. I have 200k in cash which I had kept liquid for downpayment of house. Now, thinking of delaying the purchase by an year or two and not sure where to keep it in meanwhile.

Knew how dirty everything is from working a server job in college, but seeing our server touch her face then grabbing a lemon for my drink just killed me inside.

If you’ve been laid off before, did you get a warning? What was the process like? And how long was the search before finding a new job? Getting nervous with all the uncertainty.

Just pierced my ear (I’m a dude) and I’m heading out to my company’s HQ in two weeks (I’m remote) and even though I almost never care what people think I’m a little nervous to see if anyone freaks out that their GC has an earring.

Struggling with low self esteem. How can I help myself?

Man fuck work

Stress really does trickle down .. my manager is getting annoying 🙄 and now I’m getting stressed 🙄

Why’s it so hard to find a cute boy to kiss and make out with 🙇🏻‍♀️

Curious for those of you who are/have been married in the bowl, how old were you when you got married and would you do it again?
I was 29 years old and would definitely do it again (most of the time 😂)

I spend so much time on this app that I should quit my current job. Fishbowl, you hiring?

Would having to take a bus for 45 mins to an hour and then having to do a 15 minute walk from the bus stop to the office be a dealbreaker for you for a job offer?

Ladies if a guy you’ve been dating/sleeping with told you he wasn’t sure his hesitancy towards dating you more seriously was because of you or his job would you continue sleeping with him? I know I deserve someone who’s sure about me but the sex is amazing 😭

Friendly reminder to your boss… He is just a human like you… don’t let him ruin your life.

There’s a special place in hell for assholes who use the shoulder on the highway as their own personal lane whenever there’s traffic 😑

Spoke with a friend for like 8 straight hours and I’m slowly beginning to think my friend is a narcissist

Finished on a Friday evening, waiting for post work drinks. Not a thing in my team, apparently. Sucks.

Was on a call hungover and high today negotiating a $1.5M contract 😬
