Are there any bowls (or at least any interest in one) for LGBTQ+ teachers? I'd really love to connect with other queer educators, but I can't find any existing bowls! If people are interested, though, I'd love to open one.

I am interested. I am a fourteen year teaching veteran, and I am out to the faculty, admin and staff, but not the kids. Sometimes, I wonder how they do not know that I'm gay. I just want to shout, "HAVE YOU MET ME?????" In the deep south here, I may lose a parent or a student due to outdated attitudes, so I choose not to disclose. However, if a student asks directly, I answer them truthfully and ask them to respect my privacy.

I would love to connect...I’m the only gay guy on staff.

So many of my friends and coworkers including are part of the queer teaching community. I’d definitely join!

Honestly, why do people focus more on what separates them from each other and less on what unites them?

Isn’t the original post about uniting under something shared with others?

D said we will all move to Central Business Service (CBS)

We will no longer be under Executive Service Center (ESC)

Although management says it will have no impact on us, am suspecting that's not the case.

Does KPMG, EY and PWC have a central support system?

Please, share your thoughts as am thinking that moving to CBS we will lose some perks.

Hi all! Has anyone else been interviewing for in-house, mid-level Privacy counsel roles? I have found these interviews to be extremely demanding (11+ 45min-1hr interviews with technical/legal specific questions + 10hr writing assessment). Has any one else experienced this? Is anyone else finding that these assessments are becoming more of a norm in the interview process for privacy roles? Thoughts on this or advice? Thank you!

I recently started my first post-college job as a software developer and have to make a decision pretty soon: front-end development or back-end development.

My dream would be to do full stack but thats not an option. Scared of getting pigeon holed. Any suggestions as to what to do / tips?
