Should I get an mba if I have a Maac already?
Hi Everyone,
I just received an offer to work as an software sales representative (SDR) for IBMs Z systems. I'm coming as a sales engineer in the cloud security space. Can anyone advise me on whether Z systems are something worth going into? Also what do the growth opportunities look like at IBM? Is there opportunity for lateral movement onto other teams? Not too sure how I feel about working on mainframes (Z systems) but they keep pitching hybrid cloud to me. IBM

Is she hot?
You’re asking the right questions sir
I was is in a similar situation. She wanted to hangout one on one at a bar, she talked to me differently than the other consultants on my team and I felt a lot of sexual tension in general when I talked to her one on one, where we’d talk non work related for over a hour sometimes. She is a conventionally attractive blonde in her early thirties, but I’m not trying to get into any trouble this early in my career as a 23yr old black guy. And in my eyes, there are just too many single women out here to justify doing anything with a work colleague. Also, I feel that if it was a guy hitting on you, this thread would be a lot different, and they’d probably suggest to reach out to HR. So do with that as you will.
Don’t hookup where you vlookup
All jokes aside, if you are not interested, just decline and avoid her
Yeah dude just send it, just gotta make it work until you roll off lol
Always room for a different type of engagement ;)
If she look good I say hit a few times then dub it after that like she never existed
Based on comments seems like men can’t complain about workplace flirting/harassment. I would say try to avoid her and if she asks you out or something report to hr.
Yeah that’s excessive to tell hr if she asks you it.
Nah Fr what the man above said ^
OP still hasn’t answered the question of whether she looks good or not!!
Ooof EY2
I feel like no one's taking you seriously, when this is a an awkward (and real) problem, especially for men. I've kind of had the opposite happen (male manager) and I just made sure to only hang out in group situations, talk to other people in the group (that I really liked) and eventually I just switched jobs and ghosted him lol. Good luck OP, it's definitely a tough situation!
The real question is was she intoxicated. Bc anyone looks good at the bottom of the bottle 🤣
What people have you interacted with that aren’t intoxicated at happy-hours? 😂
Bro just do it. Everyone needs to do it once to figure it out. It’s a great side quest to keep consulting interesting.
Add her to ur collection bro
Yep, I dealt with situation back in the day. I recommend acting aloof unless your actually interested.
Just say you are gay or taken. People like being flattered, so you can frame the dynamic as just not being possible as opposed to rejecting her
Never had this happen but I’ll echo everyone else (that’s not making jokes about it), you gotta tell her you’re not interested or it’s just gonna continue. I wouldn’t involve HR unless it gets really bad
That’s the real gold standard
Can't imagine if Janet does this to me
Don’t shit where you eat unless it’s a part-time gig. Had a lot of fun hooking up with the other lifeguards during the summers at the neighborhood pool, wouldn’t be as lenient in my professional career. There’s added complications if she’s your supervisor, wouldn’t open the can of worms until after the project is over at least
Is she married? Is she hot? Is she rich?
If you answer yes to any of these then full send.
If you’re into it lucky you, if you don’t like it, well you’re a male and no one wants to hear it sadly. I’d do your best to avoid her or only talk with her when others are present
