Anyone have the link to the PAS m&a call? Mine says zoom TBD

our practice is having a face to face meeting tomorrow however no one knows I am expecting (13 weeks). I was not planning on sharing, however very last min they scheduled a lunch and happy hour outside of the office.

If you were inheriting 50k and had 0 debt as a 23 year old, how would you invest/allocate that.

(Already maxed my Roth for the year)

I fought all week last week for raises for a few employees who are amazing, important and underpaid. One of these people is actually a team lead. They are training others who are coming in and earning $4k more a year than she currently earns and she’s been with our company for about 2 years!!! I find this extremely unfair. The owners of the company believe these employees should speak up if they want a raise. I think it’s our responsibility to pay our employees fairly. Please leave suggestions🙏

Most demeaning experience on the job? My director once forced me to sit in the corner and take notes for an executive-level meeting. This was after I was seated at the main table which had space...

Thoughts on giving less than 2 weeks notice?

I’m quite frustrated and ready to start new job ASAP. I’ve been at current job for nearly 3 years and anyone who might be potential reference for future jobs (old bosses) has already left the company. I have good relationships here otherwise too.
1.5 week notice will work out with my upcoming travel plans and personal life as well, but concerned about if agencies really put you on “do not rehire” list?

Anyone give less notice and get in trouble?
