Anyone have a mini schnauzer? Just wanted to get a ball range of annual costs. Thinking about getting one during covid, perfect time to train!

I still see the eyes of my patients as they are intubated and the fear they projected. So many died. My heart hurts for them, their families and all of those who cared for them until the end. Having some serious PTSD from this pandemic.

DNA tests -fellow desis, requesting everyone here to get them done and build up the Desi reference database. Had a 23 and me test done recently, result was 100% South Asian -duh.

Any thoughts on the 75 Hard challenge? I’ve started seeing it circulate on social media again and I’m interested to give it a try (I do better working out and eating well in a framework). But, I’m not sure I love how rigid the program is - seems like it could be setting you up for a bad relationship with your diet and/or exercise.

2020 fall admit here. Many of my main drivers for business school have been impacted by COVID-19, such as getting back on campus and meeting new people. Concerned I’ll be wasting a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity starting b-school likely virtual. How have others approached the decision of going, deferring, or not going? Seems like a debate around the “least bad” choice

Hey former grad students, how long did it take for you to mentally recover?

I’ve been on Adderall IR for awhile and just got prescribed Zoloft by my doctor today. Anyone have experience taking both meds?
(Asking because I was taking Adderall and Lexapro together years ago and had to stop because I started getting tons of random bruises, so I’m wondering if there’s anything y’all have experienced with Adderall & Zoloft.) Thanks so much!!

New to therapy question - I had a consultation with a therapist last week where I unpacked all the shit I kind of want to work on / talked about my life / background. Am I supposed to come to the next meeting with an agenda / stuff I want to talk about or should I expect that therapist to lead? I want to reduce my anxiety overall but I’m not sure what conversations are supposed to accomplish that.

Hidradenitis supparativa - does anyone have it? I think I might. Have red lump so painful can’t see doctor until Tuesday

I think I need to see a therapist because I actually miss the Firm now.

Anyone else at a firm so rooted in the past that you’re embarrassed explaining it to other attorneys?

Example: We are 10 months into COVID and my firm still hasn’t decided on/implemented a video meeting platform (Zoom, Teams, etc.). So if I want to have a video meeting I have to ask the other party to use their video services. And it’s not at all a funding issue.

Acronym NYC was a nightmare to try to get feedback/move the process along

I have physical onboarding in TCS But I am not yet vaccinated .Will there be any issue?

I recently left my big law role to start my own firm, and I need health insurance since that was a benefit with my prior firm. Any tips on where to find good coverage? Is it considered a business expense or a tax deduction? I don’t anticipate to be making much income this first year if that makes a difference.

I'd love to learn more about how developing countries are being supported in COVID. Do people know of ways that US doctors can help?

I’m a manager and one of my direct reports makes more than me. It really bothers me. Anyone else been in this situation before? What’s the best way to handle it?

So I’m considering to go back to school for my master in Engineering or Data Science next fall. Which is a 1.5 years program. However this current job crisis got me scared. What if I can’t get a job once I graduate? Will the job market come back to normal by 2025 👀

I feel like we’re going downhill. I might just move to Brazil and live with the Amazonian tribe at this point.

For some context I went through my
final round with a potential employer a
little over a week ago. If the recruiter
said they'd provide me with an update
by Monday (today) and they did not
provide it yet, when should I reach out
and follow up?

Any tips for staying motivated when the job hunt gets especially long and disheartening?

My SO has been job hunting on and off for what feels like almost a year now and I can tell he is fizzling out. He’s trying to make a big career change, which requires someone to take a bit of a chance on him. He’s putting in the effort and has gotten so so close a number of times to reaching his goal - just nothing has fully planned out yet. Want to be as supportive as I can be without being pushy

Happy tax day!!!! 🎉🎉

Hi everyone! I'm looking to transition to the private sector after working in non-profits for 5+ years. Would love to get a foot in the door with tech but do not have experience. As it goes with nonprofits, I am exceptionally skilled at wearing many hats. Located in Cincinnati! Anyone willing to help me out with a referral?

I have some mental issues that affect how I do my work. Is it appropriate to bring them up ever, or is it seen as an excuse?

Do you ever find yourself justifying why your job is just as hard as an AD knowing damn well it's a lie?

consultant 🐠, are you all as conservative as the deloitters, pwc’ers, and ey’ers that normally post here are?

there seems to be a huge difference in social opinion between ad agencies and consultancies here and i was curious if that’s the norm.

I live in a 1br 1 bath condo with dog parks all around. I’m WFH until December (conformed). I work at a FAANG and can bring the dog to work. I want a dog. Question: Golden Retriever or some other smaller dog? I love GR’s personality, affection, and lack of nuisance barking (admittedly this can be trained away). Thoughts on breed and suggestions for breeders?

I really want to leave consulting to become a teacher (probably high school), but am having trouble pulling the trigger due to the pay differential and lifestyle I’ve become accustomed to. Does anyone have advice for major career moves?

My company has just undergone a re-org and teams have shifted. Because of the nature of our team, none of us work together on the same projects. My manager is wanting to build in social time for our team to get to know each other. We are a remote co. and our team resides in different time zones. I’m on the east coast and these virtual events are scheduled from 7-8pm EST. I feel it’s too late and interferes with my personal/family time. How would you approach the discussion?

When did you know you were going to marry your partner? Was it early on into the relationship?

Any suggestion for real time brainstorming / whiteboarding tool, for an online meeting of about 5-6 people?

I was tentatively hired for this WFH compliance role at Edward Jones, pending a background check. During the interview process, recruiter stated that the salary range would be 85-95k. So when it came to discussing salary, Recruiter offered 85k. I stated that I would like to request 90K. Recruiter told me that everyone gets 85k. I told her that I’m asking for mid range and that I’ll be putting in 45+ hours. Was I wrong and will they accept my request?

Can you provide tips on effective steering committees and what what’s worked well? These meetings are not really getting us anywhere...and I’m tasked with leading them 😓

Carole Baskins, Skylar White, and Wendy Byrde. Were the shows framing these characters in a way to make the viewer dislike them? Worried I subconsciously hate women.

How’s your metabolism been?

With the CDC updating it’s guidance about Covid spreading through the air, do you guys recommend any good air purifiers?

What companies offer Maternity/Paternity benefits without having to wait a year? Burnout is an understatement and my wife and I are expecting another child. Current workload is unsustainable and don’t want to keep working myself to death. Many places I’ve seen have Maternity/Paternity leave benefits that start after being there for one year. Any place out there without that requirement?

I get that you’re “old fashioned.”

I don’t care. Please message me before you call. (ESP at 8am 🙄)
