My nephew who's a journalist student told me about the Wag The Dog movie. As a senior journalist, I feel bad about not seeing that gem before. Please don't be like me and watch it if you haven't by now.

Does anyone still play StarCraft?

Love is apples
but not oranges
its cyanide seeds
will kill if you eat
one too many
sometimes it’s

and you’re a

wanting relief.

I was recently in Spain and my Spanish is native as well as my English, but I had the opportunity to attend the musical of the Lion King. I had already seen it in English and wanted to try it in Spanish, and although it is the same music the language change felt like total madness. Is this normal?

I have not been reading books in a long time due to raising kids, hectic work and just day to day life.
I really really want to get back to reading.
Do you buy all the books ? I used to read only physical books. Audible books are not appealing to me cos I have hearing issues. Please provide me tips / pointers. TIA

What's a nice restaurant to take relatives to when they're in the city visiting? Would like something nice but not over-the-top fancy.

Favorite halal restaurant in Boston? Help a Muslim brother out 😅

Played Xbox the other day for the first time in several years. I am terrible now, to be fair I wasn't anything special before. I kind of feel like the game has beaten me and I need to buy one just to practice and beat it. Ha ha

Hearing rumours about new office in Hyderabad. Any insights?

Any other 60 yr old unemployed life long techies out there? I have to admit, being unemployed at 60 is a bit expressing. I've started a couple business that went no where. And freelance isn't as easy as I thought it would be. I welcome your comments

MPLS AE’s - what y’all making in salary?

London folk, question for you: do firms and offices in London not recruit candidates directly? I hardly see positions advertised on the websites of these firms but there are vacancies that they seem to recruit for through recruiters. What’s the deal here? Does it make sense to approach firms by yourself at all? Would appreciate any insight I can get on the matter. Thank you!

Need hearts for chat..please help.. thanks

Anyone interviewed with Walmart Labs? How slow/fast do they move? Been 🦗 since the hiring mgr screen

BCG🐠 how long is the cool off period for a fresh application if I didn't get to the interview stage?

It's funny how leadership development programs are a sham. Content is wordy and managers who preach don't practice.

Hypocrisy trending !

Hi all, i was fired today because i said the truth!! Isn’t that interesting?

Do you have off for Juneteenth? How will you be spending your 3day weekend?

Home office preference question. I am getting ready to redo the layout of my home office. One option I'm considering would have my desk facing a wall. I am wondering if anyone with this current setup has any feedback about it. I would face the wall so that I would have a better background for video conferences (am on about half the day) and also my cord situation would be cleaner.

With this WFH life & the pandemic I’ve barely been moving. I started walking daily since a few days ago and it kicks my butt. My legs are actually sore from walking? It’s really sad but I’m glad I’ve taken in this initiative and wanted to share 😂

Book recommendations? I’ve been reading atomic habits, and have moved onto Traders guns and money.

Do you feel KPMG is putting people at risk encouraging to go back to the office? It’s not mandatory yet but I can see leadership promoting/expecting and those following would eventually fall in their good books. How hard is it to understand that pandemic is not over by any means?

A little late here, but any suggestions/recommendations or watch outs for an automatic standing desk preferably with charging attachments? Looking to invest in a decent one around $2-300 !

God, I miss my nice/peaceful commute home. Listening to a podcast in traffic was one of the highlights of my day

Found a good looking Herman Miller Aeron, used on CL. Worth the 400 bucks? Do not have a proper office chair at the moment

My superiors are asking me to contact CEOs of debtors to chase payments. We’re in B2B and payments are usually 30 days or more. As soon as we get someone over that and they don’t provide a payment date, I’m being asked to contact their CEOs somehow and demand payment. I think it’s dumb, will hurt the relationship and I also don’t want to ruin my reputation. Thoughts?

Am I right to be upset I got rejected after 3 job interviews and a work assignment? After the presentation I had with them they scheduled a video interview only to reject me live on zoom. Felt put on the spot, trying to remain friendly and professional when in fact I felt like crying.

Anyone else crave lazy days on the weekend but then feel super guilty for not being productive?

How many of y'all actually write things down? A lot of people are into Notion etc but I've never found a use for note apps, even for things like shopping lists and recipes. I take notes at work but don't write for my personal life.

For those of you who do write or take notes, what do you write about?

Looking to make a switch from the insurance business (P&C). I just started this earlier this year but its not at all what I was told it would be like during the recruiting process. Was hoping you guys may have some insight, I have a background in sales and customer service. I'm very interested in Financial services (Financial planning, banking, etc. etc.) or something along those lines. TYIA

If it’s true that you can gain full immunity after recovering from COVID (when science says so ofc), will the plan be to antibody test people and let them resume daily life if they have immunity?
