When the interviewer asks why you're looking for a new job, how do you nicely say, "Because my manager is batshit crazy and I'd rather carve my eyeballs out with a spoon than do another tax with her"?

I’ve been with my company for 2.5 years. There are no performance reviews. There’s talk about rolling them out, but I don’t know what timeline they’re on and I’m growing increasingly dissatisfied with my comp and can’t wait. I would like to prepare a case for a raise and a more formal bonus plan. I need help please with basics like how to ask for the meeting, start/end the conversation (I can prepare the meat of the argument with my achievements). Money talks are not my strength

FIRE folk, do you contribute to a traditional IRA, with the expectation that your income will be lower when you finally hit FIRE and hope for that ~10 tax, so you'll do ladder conversions later or do you do direct Roth or backdoor Roth conversion contributions now? I don't mind the Roth contributions now, but I truly believe we'll have less income when retired. No kids now, but planning to in a couple of years.

Job stressing me out and working late nights often. I’ve recently passed my 6m probation and want baby soon as I’m currently 34. Would you: 1/ quit and focus on being healthy and getting pregnant (hubby can financially support) 2/ ride it out and quit after your maternity leave?

I'm 27 and have always been unhappy with my smile. Finally learned about palate expansion recently thanks to another thread on this bowl.

I do think my palate (upper jaw) is too narrow and I would benefit from palate expansion. Will sign up for dental during open enrollment but want to hear if anyone else has gotten palate expansion as an adult? How old were you and how did it go?

Theoretically, if you were laid off during COVID19 and have a 6 month gap or something, and the economy starts picking up, how receptive and understanding would companies be of that empty gap?

Ask for PTO and potentially get it denied or call in sick?

Coming back from furlough in about a week. Any tips, advice, and general thoughts on coming back “swinging”.

I got fired today and the US economy is in a recession and I can’t find another job. What do I do?

I’m totally empathetic to people that miss offices and traveling. I understand your reasons why, I truly do.

For me personally, after non-stop weekly travel for 4 straight years, not traveling has made me realize how much I enjoy being home. Spending time with family, sleeping in your own bed, consistent exercise schedule, etc.

I for one hope consulting becomes more of a hybrid travel model (i.e. travel 1-2x per month or as needed). Else it won’t be for me.

Anyways, just some thoughts.
