Hi .. unrelated to work but does anyone know what the fees is for applying UK tourist visa through Priority Pass?

Hello Fishes,

I have got my L2 Dependent Visa stamped for the US through the Wife's organization and she has booked the tickets for the both of us in the next weekend. I am currently unallocated in TCS and seeking projects in the same US location as my Wife. Can I travel to the US just like that and then continue my search within TCS from there or do I need any approvals to even fly in the first place?

I am worried because of the time crunch and will be glad to hear some points on this.

Can I technically be "based" in one city but live in another? Why does it matter where my "home office" is? I alt-travel to see my friends in another city every weekend and I'd rather just live there.

Is being lied to during an interview something common? And we are talking about night and day for workload, travel %, clients and the list goes on and on?

Going to be about 5,000 PQM short in Chicago for United. What are my options? Should I mileage run? Premier Accelerator? Thanks in advance!

Anybody have an investment property? My father and I bought a small family property near my grandmother, far away from us. My Dad always teased that he can now deduct the travel when he goes to visit his mother, because he'll stop by the property and do some light maintenance.

I've been teasing back that that would be a good way to commit tax fraud. But this year I noticed that one of the deductions TurboTax explicitly prompts you to take is. . . airfare!

Is it legit to deduct this travel?

I got an informal offer stating the salary range before they officially extend a written offer. I accepted over email and the recruiter said this:

Are you comfortable accepting at the (lowest part of the range) and everything else listed? Or would it need to be on the higher end of the range I suggested?

What the heck do I say while being polite??? Of course I would rather it be higher than the lowest part of the range!!

You are sick and its okay to be on medication, its ok for your body to do things that are out of your control. My God, we can accept that he is a normal human being. Why try to portray him as some superhuman?

I have an offer to move client side and help them on their implementation of Workday (current implementation Consultant) as their HCM Admin. Pay is much better (about 30k more than now, currently make 72) - but my husband told me to think about it because it’s so easy to get promoted and shine in my current role. I’ve been told I’m top of my level and doing everything right. Do I stay and advance to Principal/Manager for resume or go to Client Side for major company to help them?

All my years in therapy circled around one healing solution - To accept that I was wrong.
In that, i could turn my life around, accept changes, grow and learn. But no, my ego was too big *contd.

I constantly get emails from colleagues asking me “when I’m available” or “the client gave us these three slots... which is open for you?” What is a tactful way - if any - to address this? After more pings from the colleague I have to reply with “calendar is up to date” so they get the hint. Am I missing something?

Any of the female consultants out there been asked what their "rate" was when having a solo drink at the hotel bar? I mean, I can't help it that I'm popular...

Hi all! I am currently in an internal healthcare consulting role and looking for advice on getting an MBA. I went straight from undergrad to grad school where I got my MPH.

For extern program at consulting firms, who pays your salary / benefits? Could it result in a pay bump if the extern company is willing to pay higher? If anyone has done one at MBB or similar, lmk!
