Anyone use spirulina powder? 1st heard of it from a bottled drink marketed as superfood.
Curious if you notice any tangible benefits.

Hi everyone, first fishbowl post here :) I’m currently 4W4D pregnant! I’m excited but also very anxious. I had a miscarriage first time I got pregnant last June and a chemical pregnancy in Jan. I REALLY want this to work and need to obviously keep my stress and anxiety in check. I read everything there is to read on what to do/not do/eat/not eat… My previous experiences have removed any kind of “innocent excitement” I had. Does it ever come back?

My dermatologist prescribed a body tretinoin cream (0.1% cut with about 6 parts vanicream lotion, per her instruction). Been starting slow, using it a 2-3x a week and skin seems to be tolerating it pretty well, with the exception of the skin that rubs together while I sleep (cleavage and neck folds). Is this likely because of the moisture from the sweat in those areas? Anyone else experience this and will it get better as my skin gets used to the retinoid?

I have tried to pinpoint what I am feeling or not feeling at work. I have come to think that the JOY is somewhat lacking with everything that is going on. I still love my job and the interactions with the students, but all the sickness, fear, and death that has happened over the past 2 years has taken a toll.

Does anyone else think this?

Thoughts on Gartner? Specifically their marketing areas under strategy/ops. I saw some comments around layoffs/halting 401k matching from a few weeks back but curious about that department

What will be the expected salary for a role of Software Engineer (2.5 YOE) in Thoughtspot (except RSUs,benefits)?

Hi guys,

I need an advice/suggestion here. I got an offer from 2 different organisations and choose one among them (Role: Analyst) because of the culture and benefits. And the other offer has a good pay and good designation (Associate Consultant) rather than the one I choose. Now i feel very low due to this decision that I took. I feel like I have settled down for a lower package and a lower designation. Is there anything that I can do in the current organisation that I’ve joined at a week back

I lost my last job a few weeks before Christmas last year and it took me a long while to find a new one. Ultimately I ended up moving to a new city for a job I was really excited about. However, within the first few weeks I suffered a major medical setback which led to a crippling bout of depression. I am finally starting to feel like a person again but I'm afraid the ship has sailed on my having success in my new role.

Happy Friday! Any firms looking for a legal nurse consultant/healthcare consultant? Appreciate any insight you have for me.
