It’s not, “nobody wants to work anymore” its “nobody wants to work for my low wage, underpaid, abusive environment”

The people who say that phrase don’t represent someplace that someone wants to work for, for the duration of time in which they want them.

But also yes to everything you wrote

I've heard GSD&M does the same.

They laid me off in May among roughly 30 other people. They posted 25 jobs just a few weeks later.

I'm not exaggerating on that number. I actually counted it.

Hurts to read because it’s spot on.

Got to a third round a few months ago.

They said no but the job has been up ever since so either they weren't that serious or no one else has met their high standards.

Or both.

They meant no HR person wants to work anymore

How do I be a decent manager to a coworker who's upset I've been promoted twice in two years and they haven't? We started out as coworkers, became decent friends after a few good moments, but went back to simply coworkers after they flubbed a few projects and I had to step in to clean up. I'm non-confrontational but year-end reviews are right around the corner and I'm worried about having to act professional to someone who I got too close with and who now hates me.

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
