Any warm recommendations for data buying companies?

Feeling like it's only a matter of time before I have to tell the new marketing dept head that the snazzy jargon just makes him sound like a tryhard and alienates our customer base

How many billable hours per week is considered at capacity? I’m getting pushback on boundaries I’m setting about additional matters and marketing work from my firm when I’ve been billing 60-75 hours per week for the last 6 weeks, and I’m still behind on my work. I feel like it’s reasonable to not kill myself further to fit in more/turn things around faster at this point, but am I being unreasonable? I expect my workload to remain at this level through the end of the year at least.

Got offered a pharma/healthcare role (currently work consumer side). 15% more than current role, lateral move, remote for now of course. Not sure if I should take the offer or not, given I have no experience in pharma & health. I said I would sleep on it. Advice?

I’ve been tobacco free for two years, today.

I’ve been high every day for two years, today.

Do you know what today is, today is the day I am now allowed back to office as our vaccination requirement was dropped? I still can’t go to our office in NYC and possibly some other jurisdictions and we do need to follow client rules to visit them.
Have any of other Big 4 made changes?

In the most unnecessarily complicated phrasing worthy a dissertation, what are you working on this week?

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?

Want to try out some cocktail bars in Dallas (love Parliament and Atwater Alley)

Any advice for a freelancer on the best software to use to keep track of finances?

Any tips for how to better implement feedback on drafts? My work is so heavily redlined that I struggle to consistently follow through with every comment/feedback. I am in patent prosecution, so it is a lot of detailed technical writing, but is also fairly formulaic, which is nice. Thankfully the partner I work with is extremely patient and a very good teacher, I would just like to be better at learning from his very thorough feedback.

I’ve been in a grad job for 1.5 years. Looking to get into MBB at the 2 year mark. What level roles should I be applying for? Also, does anyone have any tips?

Found a good looking Herman Miller Aeron, used on CL. Worth the 400 bucks? Do not have a proper office chair at the moment

Anyone else feel like you come up with these amazing ideas, only to brush it off... Then fast forward a few years and see that it's now an $XXX million dollar company, getting another round of funding by a bunch of VCs and ramping up hiring of their 500+ employee base?

This is literally the 10th time this is happening to me. WTF am I doing with my life?!? Why am I stuck a slave, instead of following these persuits?

Can someone discuss the pros and cons of having a gym close to work vs having a gym near home but still would have to commute there, go back home then go to work. To me it seems more convenient to just on the way to work go to the gym, shower, then go into the office.

Ps: yes, I'm in the office.

I swear gov Cuomo is really surfacing as an amazing leader during this crisis.

Standing desk people: do you get a mat or anything for your feet?

Do not have a personal computer so have been using my work computer for new job search activities like updating my resume and sending networking emails (using my personal email). When it comes to scheduling zoom interviews, do I just take them on my company laptop?

If I start my day at 7am, what time can I truly stop working?!
I mean work will never end, I know that but there needs to be a time where I should be rightly call it a day and not feel guilty about having a gazillion things left undone. Trying to work on myself, boundaries, reducing anxiety and I was thinking about it today

Sometimes I feel weird when my coworkers reach out to ask how I'm doing. The police brutality and protests are nothing new.

For those who have been very afraid and are still very afraid of the virus, what are your thoughts on nearly all Covid restrictions being lifted in even the most bluest of states and cities? Lost? I’m genuinely curious.

So all the anti-covid folks are pretty quiet now that we have seen a steep incline of cases in states that reopened early (Florida, Texas, Georgia) 🤔

Looking to move out in about 1-1.5 years.. any thoughts on where to park a large sum of cash for the time being? I feel like just having it sit in regular savings is a waste, but putting it anywhere even if it’s not known for being risky still rubs me the wrong way! 1st time home buyer, thanks!l!

I can't wait for things to get back to normal. For my kids to go to school. To see my family again. To travel overseas and explore. To not worry if I accidentally bump into someone. I feel like my kids are missing out on the magic of school (they were in kg and 1st grade when the initial shutdown started). I didn't get to see my nephew and niece since they were born, haven't seen my sister in 5 years (our family reunion got cancelled this summer). That is all. Hoping for a better year.

Am I crazy? I’m considering turning down an offer 3x my current comp in a city I love. I even like the company culture better at the new firm. Downside is the day to day work as they’re different industries. I really can’t see myself doing the work at the new firm long term. I get work is work but this especially leaves me unfulfilled. But feel bad turning down something that on paper seems like a no brainer. Any fishies here have advice/gone thru similar experience? Did you regret it?
