worst take.

lay on a peaceful beach on a hot day in your bathing suit and close your eyes while resting to the sounds of waves crashing with the scent of banana boat sunscreen drifting into your nose and the feel of sand beneath your toes grinding away all your cares.

I live in Miami and I think I visit the beach 2 times a year.

smart

That’s because it’s Miami.

If I wanted to spend hours after a visit with grains of who know what stuck to everything, everywhere, I’d roll in kitty litter.

Let me see. White sand covered with hot, half-naked women and the sweet smell of coconut suntan lotion mixed with smoldering herb gently wafting through the air.

Definitely overrated dude!

Why would you ask a question like this? What would possess you to choose violence and start drama in such a professional arena?

They are 100% overrated.

I love water. But the sand is terrible.

Pools >>>>> beaches

chemical-saturated pee baths? no thank you.

US beaches are overrated. Which aren’t really beaches if you know what I mean. Elsewhere, beaches are paradise.

There’re some beautiful US beaches. But not a lot remaining. The problem in the US is that money buys absolutely anything, so most of the best beaches have developed waterfront. And some states people can own the beach, like the actual sand (up to the hight tide mark) which is insane for me. Also the first time I ever heard of a beach opening and closing. I think that’s what ruins beaches for me here.

Beaches in the summer are overrated. Beaches in the winter are something magical. Although cold, very very cold.

Did 3 panel interviews at Discover Financial Services for the Sales Account Executive role and felt the TC package was too low. Salary at $70K with annual bonuses at 25% with. $5K one-time sign on bonus. I made the case that my experience and education was far more than even the preferred criteria on the job description, and over 3x of the minimum qualifications. The recruiter is now thinking of two other roles for me:
Lead, Program Marketing
Lead Field Solutions Representative
Any feedback?

One of ex’s friends who is I met twice, has been in touch, him and his wife, like commenting on some of my posts occasionally (we are just fb friends and IG friends). I never saw them since. Then the friend texts asking if I am seeing someone and that he wants to set me up with someone. He felt awkward doing that, I thanked him for thinking of me, but then he said we all told your ex he is an idiot for letting you go and they asked my ex it they could still be touch with me and he said yes.

I like my current job, company and public accounting. I know I am being underpaid at $70k as a senior tax associate with 2-3 years of experience as I have talked with my local peers as well as local recruiters. Also, I know outside hires to my company get paid about $5-$10k higher than me, but they don’t get a raise the following year. My question is what is everyone’s experience with company hopping to get a pay bump within public accounting?
