As we face a lot of this today in the Midwest and eastern US, I’ve noticed bad weather often turns into an unspoken test of commitment.
Those who show up are praised.
Those who don’t feel guilty.
Have you seen this culture where you work?

If commitment is putting my life in danger arbitrarily and potentially forcing first responders to risk theirs to help me because I was too stupid to stay in with multiple alerts saying “don’t go out unless needed”, than I have no shame in being uncommitted.

Hope you guys get paid a lot more

No, and I'm thankful for it. I don't love everything about my job, but at least I'm never pressured to drive in unsafe conditions to get to work.

That is good

No, luckily I don't have to deal with that. I'm aware that some companies foster that kind of callow nonsense because they want to be known as having people who "grind all the time." That's pathetic. They're jobs, they're not something to risk one's life over.

100% agree

Hey all! I’m 30 years old. About to close on a house with a 5.75% fixed 30 yr mortgage. If you were me and your goal was to maximize your net worth by retirement, would you put a few thousand dollars extra into paying down the house faster or invest that extra money in the market? The 5.75% doesn’t feel that low but also not crazy high so I’m torn. Thoughts? 🙏

The new company I’m at now sent me an email from an email address that was HR@companyName.careers saying I was accepted for the position. They gave me paperwork to fill out and sign to accept the position

I fill out the paperwork and send it back to them and it goes through… then a few days later I go back to the email to say something else and I get this…?
Then today I got a check from the company In the mail to setup my home office, and it’s signed by someone I’ve never met before or heard of…?

Hi Everyone, I am trying to apply for a Technical Support role at Dropbox I’m entering all the required fields but there seems to be an issue, when I hit submit after filling the form, it doesn’t submit and throws error ‘Looks like you left this blank! Please fill out this required field’ when all the fields are entered already (I have checked so many times, and filled the form from scratch several times too). Anyone from Dropbox who can put me in touch with HR or suggest what I should do next?

I have an offer to do some consulting for a company based out of the UK (I am in the US). The job would not go through a consulting company but would be directly with the company. I have not done any consulting before so I am not sure how it works, what I would need to set up (they mentioned that I would start a LLC and bill them directly, no idea how to do that), how to determine the tax implications of this, or what hourly rate I would expect. Can anyone offer advice?
