It does take getting used to. Luckily, my kids are in their teens, so I’ve kept up with the latest cultural references. I try to check myself if I want to reference a song or actor from, say, the 1990s. (I told an Account kid once that I was a big fan of Elvis Costello and he had to look him up on Spotify.)

Welcome to the working week, indeed

I’m only really aware of it when it’s a bad boss or a bad co-worker. I work with a creative team that ranges in ages from Gen Z to Gen X. I’m Gen Jones, and we all mesh well. Outside of creative it’s a different story.

I called it Junior High not Middle School (X-ennial Xer here)

I’m 43. I called it junior high I guess, too. But my kids school district calls it middle school so it’s changed for me.

We are exploring having a third party come in and assess our I&D efforts across our company. We have many locations across North America. Is anyone aware of an entity who does this? We have found questionnaires through target organizations and have done anonymous employee surveys but are hoping to find someone who can do an assessment for gender, minorities, disabilities, 2SLGBTQ+, etc. and provide feedback on the actual employee experience and where we may have blind spots.

Had my 2nd interview with the hiring manager this past Friday & sent a thank you shortly after. It's now Tuesday (for those who see this on another day). At the end of the interview he said they've had other people who were interested but only one other person besides me were they considering. Said he would talk to his team and possibly have me fly out to meet in person. How long should I wait to follow up without seeming pushy? Also welcome any other tips to separate me from other candidate.
