It took me 10 yrs to come out gay in the workplace. I was single during this time and then met a guy right before Covid.

Personally it was amazing because like me, he identifies as asexual gay. We have been together 3 years and it has been magical.

I started coming out as asexual and surprisingly it hasn’t gone well. People either accuse me of lying or “something amiss in the relationship”. Should I just stop caring? I like to educate people on asexuality as it hurt me my whole life but …

Hi everyone! I am in a weird situation right now that I haven’t been in before and could really use some advice especially from women who might have faced or seen something similar. Long story short, I was brought into my current firm and promised that the work I want to do is within the team/solution they recruited me for and aligned me with in the system. However, once I started working on the project, it became very clear that I’m in the wrong team and on the wrong project (continued below)

Do you record your unbillable time? I have had conflicting responses. I have been told it's not good for efficiency calculations but others have told me if your still doing work let people know. For example, I get weird international stuff sometimes that not everyone gets (I think maybe? ) and I need to reread the 5471 rules or 8865 rules as I do the returns. I have been told not to bill for this but if I didn't have to spend time to do such things my billable hours would be higher
