I brought my guitar to Iraq, it wasn't easy, but I managed to convince my commander to let me take it. I will never forget those days when we played our favorite country songs with my buddies.

Hey all! Need a couple book recs for an upcoming beach trip.

Looking for a great non-fiction, relating to travel or world history (not just one moment in time). Could also be about the marketing world or memoirs of a business leader kinda thing.

Fiction wise I also like fantasy, paranormal, and romance. Some fave book series are the Black Gryphon from Mercedes Lackey, Game of Thrones, and From Jamaica Lane series. Similar books?

Rewatching Brokeback Mountain, which came out 15 years ago (hard to believe that). Anyway, it's still an outstanding, devastating film (and love story) that I think if had been released 10 years later would have easily won best picture and best actor for Heath Ledger.

What are some easy to make, low stress holiday meals for a school holiday staff party? I was "volunteered" by our principal to set it up this year (🙄). I'm making decorated sugar cookies but kind of drawing a blank when it comes to savory dishes. Bonus points if you have any adult holiday themed games or fun drinks to suggest! It's off school property and there will be a bar (thank god), for context.

Let’s talk speed reading. I’m a slow reader and listened to a podcast recently on speed reading. I’m intrigued. Who here speed reads? How did you learn those skills, and what types of documents do you speed read in practice? I do mostly litigation and am thinking that speed reading would help with research but maybe not things like doc review where you need to review for both responsiveness and privilege.

Has anyone had a nurse state the assumed sex at 12 week ultrasound? The nurse is fairly sure it's a boy, and I'm wondering how accurate her guess is based on a close look of the genitals. Confirmation won't happen until 20 week appt, too far away!

What year of practice did you start handling closings on your own?

Please help! I’m a CRC who manages Investigator- led clinical research projects and I want to transition to a PM role in industry (I would slightly prefer not a PM role in clinical trials since I don’t have clinical trial experience.) I’ve applied to PM roles at many biotech companies (e.g. Charles River, ICON, Paraxel) but only got 1 interview which didn’t work out. Which companies should I look to for an entry level PM role? Any good startups to consider? Anyone have any insight or advice?

Anyone want to swap Airbnb style their miami /Miami Beach place for my 17th floor chelsea doorman building near the highline ? Looking to do an upcoming weekend soon

My firm’s IT (especially system saving and file locating function) is so bad 😐😞 and they keep doing updates no one asked them for just to mess with the stuff we already got a hang of without doing anything about the issues we actually need fixed. Anyone else in a similar boat? Do you bill the client for the time it takes to fix the IT issue (or IT inefficiency generally, like time taken to find a file in a convoluted system)? Or is that supposed to be our non-billable time?

I wouldn’t even mind the hours of this job if people were kinder.

Anyone been to bluebird cafe in Nashville? Worth the hype? I’ve done the honky tonks on a prior trip and looking for something new to check out

How is Applied ai course to learn Data science and machine learning?

How does Strategy & Consulting differ from Business & Tech Integration? It appears to me, looking at the profiles of people in these different divisions, that most of the time at the Consultant-ish level, both divisions are just providing Business Analysts? What am I missing?

How embedded is MBB at the World Bank, WHO, and similar orgs?

Who do you think will be the winner of the season? I picked Hannah Anne the moment I saw her

Anyone here use Bach bracket? I’m trying to get one going with some friends. Have you found a good way to remind people to make picks weekly (WhatsApp, group text, etc)?

Madison should win this whole thing.

I like this show but I’m getting tired of these really young cast.

Is it me or does Ana have nonstop rbf? She definitely could not play poker because her face does not hide her feelings at all.

Hannah Anne is the clear winner

I wanted Mike Johnson to be the new bachelor... He is such a great guy! 😩
I have nothing against Matt James, but Mike proved us he was ready and a stand-up man.

So is there no After the Final Rose this season? The Bachelor season starts in two weeks but didn’t see any promos for ATFR next week. I need to know how Tayshia and her boo are doing now!

Ok but I can’t be the only one that has been team Kelley and Peter from the start. The producers coerced Peter into going after 23 year olds and didn’t want a redo of Colton’s season...

UGH just got home from work — is it even worth it to tune in at this point? Then again, it’s only halfway through, correct?

By the way, can we take a minute to acknowledge that Lana is real?!? 😳😱

WHY WAS NEIL LANE THERE?!

Who else is ready to see Jamie and her drama go? Although, I am pretty sure we‘ll see her on Paradise...!

Someone explain to me what happened on the bachelor. Stopped watching but keep seeing confusing storylines of what happened. Madi said no, then he proposed to Hanna, then Hannah broke up with him?
