Has anyone ever messed up at a company party because of alcohol?

My SO is an alcohol abuser but has said he knows it’s a problem and would like to cut back or quit. Any suggestions or advice in how to help and cope with this. He becomes a different person when he drinks. I want to support him but don’t know how or where to start.

my sister died this morning. I posted about her in a past post. Alcohol addiction, liver failure and then it taxed the kidneys too much, she went into cardiac arrest at 9 am and they could not save her. She was 51. Sad day for sure. Feels odd that she is no longer here. I just wish she could have had a better future.

what is the standard process of asking to switch office locations? has anyone done it successfully? did you go through HR or apply for the position directly? any advice welcome.

God, I miss my nice/peaceful commute home. Listening to a podcast in traffic was one of the highlights of my day

Anybody having experience good/bad about investing through Wint Wealth? Seems like a good way to diversify the liquid portion of the portfolio......if I am greedy this looks better than those liquid funds and a 100% safer than those too.
Also what independence disclosures will apply after the NSDL being made mandatory brokerage account....for Wint Wealth related investments

Recently joined cognizant. Current location is Pune, joining location is kolkata.
Recruitment HR has confirmed in the email that I can collect the asset from pune and work from pune for few days until I go to kolkata.
Onboarding HR is like you have to come down to kolkata for collecting the laptop. Has Anyone faced similar experience?

Anyone in the suburbs find it harder to make friends compared to the city? I don’t want to move back but I don’t know what else to do..

Well, I was the one who broke it off. I couldn’t get him to love me the way I needed or even respect me enough. It’s been 6 weeks of not seeing each other. We messaged this week. He doesn’t get it…. His messages show he still doesn’t know what he wants. Yet, if I am totally honest, I hate how part of me wishes he would do a grand gesture/finally decide to be a better man. It’s delusional. It’s crazy how love can be so rosy, sweet & blinding that the red flags seem surmountable.

In the middle of West Central Ohio and the best dinner place is Applebee's.

Curious if this is going to happen to others - I quarantined w/ my husband 24/7 for the last 10 weeks, he left 4 days ago to visit a friend. I’m having severe separation anxiety beyond what is normal

As an outsider, I’m curious if anyone here could list some of the top architecture firms are and what the title / comp progression might look like?

I recently moved to Dubai after getting married. I am still continuing my last job but eventually I'll hv to find a new opportunity here. I am from architecture background and wud like if someone who could help me with a referral. As far as my capabilities are concerned, I hv personally loved teaching and managing projects cz I am able to connect with my team/students and get the job done. So it'll be great if someone would want to give me a chance for who I am personally and not just on paper

Does anyone know if Dwell Design in DC is a good company to work for?

I am a designer with one year of experience in Philadelphia looking at moving to a new firm. Does anyone know if what the current salary places are hiring at for 1-2 years of experience?

Curious to know what other avenues people have taken in our industry to make more money. Currently getting OT which is nice since most places don’t offer that benefit but still doesn’t feel like it’s worth the long nights when the paycheck comes in.

I got an offer to work at a Gensler office, but something has come up and need to move/work in a different city. Can I ask them to transfer me before I accept the offer? Will they do this if there is the same role currently open in the new city?

Hi everyone, I’m an architectural designer (from Europe) with 1.5 yrs experience. I’m working for a practice in San Francisco, full-time from the office, getting 25 an hour. It is so expensive to live here, I am struggling to make things work. Is this a normal salary for someone of my experience or should I ask for a raise? I don’t want to be greedy but it’s so expensive out here… Thank you 🌈
