Baby furniture. What is everyone doing? FTM and trying to figure out if it’s worth investing in very expensive nursery furniture. We were looking at the Natart furniture collection and the Silva collections. These both come in at about $2000-$2400. The furniture is high quality and grows with the child. Alternatively I could go the lower end route at get everything for like $800. Is that wise? I hear horror stories about low quality and paint chipping from the baby teething on the crib.

Hello
How much is the salary for a denodo consultant ?

I thought biglaw was going to make me more attractive with girls (I have had my share of women in the past, but I wouldn’t say I’m too popular).

Worked for 4 years now, many dates called off bc of my work schedule and most girls lose interest bc they see me as a workoholic. And those who stick around expect dinners, travels and gifts paid for by yours truly.

Where is that girl I can cuddle up with on the couch with or go running or hiking with? I guess they go for men who have time for them

I started a job with a tutoring company. I had to go in for training at 2pm one day. They never told me how long I would work until I got there. Turns out I had to work until 7:30. 5 and a half hours of training. My previous experience with the same company (diff franchise) only required 1 hour of training. Anyways at the end of my shift, they said I don’t get paid for that day. They didn’t guarantee pay the next day, either. I left and said it was illegal. Was I right?
