So my bf of 3 months put on some weight. He wasn’t the fittest before, but he’s put on some weight due to stress from work and holidays. It’s starting to bother me. How do I tell him he should loose some? I’ve hinted on work out classes together, training for a run together and told him I’ll be dropping 5 pounds in the next 3 weeks to get ready for a beach holiday end of year, but he’s like “cool. Go for it! I’ll take it slow” Any ideas that doesn’t hurt his feelings ?

Can anyone let me know how easy it is to apply to a consulting firm in Dubai directly coming from London? I am currently working at a T2 strategy firm in London and my partner and I want to relocate in ~1.5 years. My firm does not have an office in Dubai whilst my partners firm does.

If you’re Senior 3 and acting manager already, how likely can you find an industry job with manager title (ie Internal Audit Manager)? Some industry jobs for IA Manager ask for like 7-10 years of experience but the job description is honestly just Senior level work. I’ve seen people at my clients in so called Manager roles with 10 years of experience who struggle to do the basics of what a Big 4 Senior does.
Don’t mind me just sitting in the office in uncomfortable clothes doing absolutely nothing because the firm says we have to have the same schedule as our clients who are currently not giving us any business
I've been working for 6 months as a recruiting temp. My original contract was dec-march. Then we mutually extended it when I had another offer for March. They then offered me full-time but I was interested in another role in another department. They agreed and I'm going to be working the 'temp to hire' role in the new department.Am I allowed to ask for a new hourly rate for this 'new' role? I took the original rate due to covid necessity but would have asked for more if it was temp-to-hire.

Do you know of any groups hiring and sponsoring H1?
Hi all, looking for views on this situation. The law firm doing my visa transfer shared my confidential data with a third person assuming they were me. They were emailing somebody in their firm with the same name as me assuming it was my email they were sending the details too (PII), ofc I haven’t started at the firm yet. To me this is a significant privacy and security lapse, and lack of due diligence. I’m quite concerned but not sure what to do - chalk it up to an honest mistake or escalate?

Anyone has gotten I-485 approval without I-485j receipt. My I-485j was filed with other documents for which I have recipes receipts but there hasn’t been one for I-485j. I am reading on trackitt and telegram groups that you can get an approval without this receipt. Any cases here?
