I wish I was less serious at work specifically. One of my senior managers just likes to publicly bust peoples balls over things he is too cool for. For the most part it’s light, but I’m just not a fan so I am pretty reserved. Outside of work I’m a easy-going, goofy weirdo who does not take life seriously. That same senior manager called me the ‘silent assassin’ of the team so seems like I’ve managed well lol.

I act serious at work but outside I’m a big goof off. I wish I could get myself to embrace the goof off at work.

Haha same here. Would you consider yourself a serious person?

I have a weird personality because I am super personable but all super high-strung. Sometimes I feel bi-polar because I’m laughing and smiling and talking to people and overreacting and cursing the next. I’m a woman who has never done drugs but I’m considering cannabis to help me calm down a bit.

I’ve become more serious after 3 years at KPMG. Outside of work I can be very happy and goofy, but it’s really hard to be happy around constantly unhappy people. 😕

A long post: seeking some perspective. My husband of 2 years that I’ve been in a relationship with for more than 8 years just woke up one day and told me that he’s unhappy in our relationship. I’m devastated because he’s never expressed anything like this in the 8 years. He’s been super supportive and loving, even when we were in a long distance relationship. He supported my career and dreams and this just doesn’t make sense. We have gotten a counselor but things aren’t getting better. Comment>

All folks who recently started with PwC. Had the HR reach out to you with regards to laptop and other onboarding info? I had reached out to them to ask if they had completed by background check since I couldnt see the process. They had said "it was completed and I should get an email confirmation". Nothing from them. Just wanted to confirm when I should expect to see the email, if any, about getting a laptop.
