Anyone's company not requiring the vaccine?

The nail on my second toe hasn’t been the same since I ran a half marathon a few years ago. It’s gross and totally messed up and it doesn’t seem to be getting any better. Do I see a podiatrist for toenails or a dermatologist?

Thoughts on Covid-safe ways to celebrate a birthday in the winter? In the summer, a few friends did small, distanced outdoor picnics but it’s gonna be around 40 degrees on my bday

I would love to get this bowl/forum up and moving again!
How is everyone in the ServiceNow space doing these days with covid ?

While the impact of this Coronavirus has been mostly negative, at least one positive is that rare specialty pieces are now much more attainable. AD able to get many even without $ history.

I feel so guilty for not always modeling good health. Anybody else feel that way?

I'm starting to believe my caffeine addiction is affecting me. After an hour of working today, my hand started shaking!

Sibling is 52 days sober from heroin/cocaine, but I just found a syringe and alcohol wipes under their pillow.

They have been passing observed urine tests, how is it possible that they’re using? Any ideas?

Any advise for wrist pinch pain? (Not looking for the surgery route). I also have an ergonomic keyboard.

🐠 Fam, I need your words of encouragement. Had to break off a toxic friendship and just found out my 🐶 has organ failure. I’m in the red with PTO and can’t take time off to deal. I am devastated. 😔

Stimulants and sweating! I’m going back to the office and never used them while in the office, I don’t want to look or be sweaty haha any advice? I also don’t want to look weird drinking 6L of water as I do in person

Re-read House of God recently. Medicine is absurd as it ever was!

Happy Friday y’all. What’s everyone’s caffeinated drink of choice today?

So all the anti-covid folks are pretty quiet now that we have seen a steep incline of cases in states that reopened early (Florida, Texas, Georgia) 🤔

Anyone here going/gone to Harvard? Curious to know how tough Harvard (mainly MBA) is with ADHD?

So today was my first day on a stimulant (diagnosed as an adult), and everyone says its suppose to feel like *boom* magic, or normal (?) , I guess. Knowing that is figurative, what should I actually be expecting? I feel mostly the same, I think, though I came in and actually did started my work today. But I mean, somedays I do that...I just don't want to psyche myself out if I'm expecting too much. Or pscyhe myself in if I actually might not be experiencing what I should.

All time best tactical plan briefing & creative kickoff? What blew minds? What fired the right brain neurons? Out-of-the box meeting structure? Acct briefing:brainstorm ratio? Who drank the KoolAid?

I want to score 650 in my GMAT in a month, I am left with no motivation, I am having anxiety at night, can't sleep till 2:30. What should I do

Anyone taken the GD test after having covid recently? I have my test in 10 days and I'm currently recovering from covid.

@fcb peeps: Who is the head creative at FCB Global? Is it Fred Levron or Susan Credle? Every piece of work that comes out of the agency, Fred immediately posts everywhere as his. But isn’t Susan Credle the worldwide chief creative officer? Who really runs the show?

My wife is incredibly stressed out and unhappy in her career. It’s been affecting our marriage significantly. I just had a conversation with her where I asked her to stay home and I said I’ll fully support her. It seems like she took it well.

Only for men:

How do you deal with a best friend breakup?

I know friendship breakups between men are not talked about openly, but I had to.

Best friend was a Male too

Does anyone work in Dubai or Singapore who can give me an idea what you get paid? Thinking of making the move from Norway. Lower/no personal income tax is the incentive - paying 47% 😭

COO’s & previous SR. account executives…

I made it to regional manager for a franchise by age 22. Ran a successful financial practice & sold by the age of 33. Took 2 years off and built a health & wellness coaching platform for my wife (medical provider). Then, the last 2.5 yrs, have been a top producer in Saas sales as a senior account executive. I’ve been told I would make a great COO someday and I’m ready to take the next step into leadership. Who/what should I be targeting next?

Has anyone here had to give a 90 day plan in an interview? I’m on round 5 now for a field role, and I was informed this will be what the final interview consists of. Panel of 5-6 supposedly. Any tips or advice on what/how to present? How to prepare? Is it kind of like a quarterly business review sort of thing?

Lately, I've been hearing a lot from my peers about how sales isn't a real profession.
I work at a tech startup and it mostly comprises developers. They can't stop emphasizing their importance in the food chain and I can't figure if I'm too humble or they're too arrogant.
This yapping comes from people I've known since college. I have successfully blocked all such negativity but wanted to know if anyone here has faced such scenarios.
P.S: I've already accepted an offer above my expectations

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.

Just promoted midyear to PM at Bofa. salary seemed soft at 150k in top 10 market. Anyone else have any input?

Hi All, Any update on CTS work from home extension?

Hi everyone,
I was doing a brief overview of GMAT math, and I feel like I need to start studying math from ground 0. Can anyone provide and advice from personal experience, or from that of a friend? My goal is to get into a t-20 MBA program. Thank you in advance! Happy holidays

Agency recruiters, how would you rate today’s market for creatives? Is it more of a freelancers’ market or is it tight for everyone at the moment?

I read this super interesting article about how big companies like Toyota are investing in social-emotional training for their employees and seeing massive benefits. I actually think this could be a whole separate class for students of all ages. Learning about conflict resolution, growing your own self-regulation skills...it's really important.

Who all is looking to buy a house and in what area?

Hello, Anyone here from Deloitte Omnia AI who could refer me for an open opportunity.

does anyone else feel pressured to go to grad school if they want to become a data scientist after analytics consulting?

In the most unnecessarily complicated phrasing worthy a dissertation, what are you working on this week?

Hi fishes, can you guys share your favorite websites to look for remote job? To look for start up companies? TIA :)

MS in Computer Science vs MS in Analytics

Anyone have any suggestions for front end guis for users to run python code? I’ve created a few tools for webscraping data, automation, and modeling but non technical users freak out when they try to run the code themselves. Any suggestions? (Have tried Juypter Notebooks and a few other IDEs)

I'm non US citizen and thinking of moving back to EU. My plan is getting remote opportunities across the world and work as a freelancer. My speciality is Data analytics and BI (Qlikview, Tableau). 1) How likely I can get a gig from the US? 2) if a job looking for a remote 2-3 months contract do they care what country I'm in? 3) how can I compete Indian rates as I'm in Europe 60-70$ per hour as a BI consultant is a good rate but I see online rates as low 10$😫?

How does everyone in this bowl feel towards master’s degrees in data science/analytics? I didn’t study this in undergrad so I’m looking to get an analytics degree but I’ve heard mixed reviews.

Hi! Does anyone know what kind of knowledge is needed to crack the Data Scientist interview at Google?

I'm currently working in Marketing Analytics (primarily using SQL and a bit of pyspark). Apart from mastering SQL, I wanted to know from people working at Google what does it take to get there as a Data Scientist? (I'm very interested in Strategy Ops)

I plan to another 6-8 months in preparation and upskilling myself before I even apply.
Any help and guidance is appreciated! Thanks :)

Is there a good online course on storytelling with data? Something that can help structure your thought process and design choices when creating visualizations and Dashboards in Tableau, Power BI etc.

I am currently working mostly in Data Analytics, but I want to transition into Data Engineering. I've applied to a couple Data engineer positions but it seems I don't have the qualifications for them. Should I maybe look for Jr. Data Engineer positions to get experience and try to move up from there? If so anybody know of any Jr. Data Engineer positions available?

If you were to hang your own shingle as a consultant what BI tool would you use to deliver dashboarding to clients?

Assume that you aren’t plugging in to source systems as I primarily work in CDD.

What are the top sales & marketing metrics that tech companies track? I have an interview for a Data architect role and the data aspect is my strength but need to brush up on the business insight part

Have zero data experience. Best way to start self learning?

Any cyber security folks here? or those interested in systems engineering? Potential role with TC 120-180, awesome team and wlb, at least compared to consulting.

To all my data engineering friends out there, do you all feel like trash sometimes? Like people dont understand shit about what you do, and clients just want to see some bs ml model/pretty but useless dashboards?

Learning cloud architecture right now so apologies if these are obvious questions: Best ways to store video metadata to perform analysis on it? I'm looking at AWS and GCP. Saw that Cassandra would be good for it, but not sure what the GCP equivalent is? But also I'm a bit confused on if Cassandra is just a DB and storage would need to be elsewhere? All help is welcome! I've been spinning my wheels on Google trying to understand
