brb putting my kids to bed

Most South Asian names seem to be anglicized in the US. Since it seems inevitable, any new parents have experience with getting ahead of the curve & going with an anglicized version in birth cert?

What does your spouse think of your job? Do they understand what you do?

Any moms on here that absolutely love their company and feel 100% supported?

I am generally uncomfortable when I’m around my mother-in-law’s husband.

While he is overall a decent guy, his anger issues, yelling at his wife for the slightest issue, and insulting nature makes me uncomfortable and triggers my own anger due to his blatant disrespect for just about everyone around him.

My mother-in-law says he’s worked on things, but it’s been 10 years of this and I’m not sure I want such behavior around my wife and our kids since we’re trying to conceive soon (cont).

Poll on general attitudes towards open relationships? I’m in one and find that some folks are totally non-judgmental about it, while others are so vicious/rude about it. Curious about your opinions! I understand that every open relationship is different, and each couple defines their own arrangement/rules. For context, ours is a passive one that’s hardly acted on, but we both have Grindr and meet guys for fun on the very odd occasion (whether together or apart). If you’re in one, describe yours!

Any dads out here? Wife is 20 weeks pregnant with our first and want to connect and know from fellow dads on how are they coping. How are you helping your partner? Feel I am not doing enough. Except for getting ready with the finances.

Pregnant moms, feel free to provide suggestions on what your partner is doing which you really appreciate. I got the foot massage part covered. 😉

Has the overturning of Roe v. Wade significantly impacted anyone's relationships? I lost two friends who were pro-life and on the verge of losing another. Wondering if I'm being too rigid in my perspective or if this is normal in Texas

Someone in my close group is having home warming ceremony soon. They invited another friend for the occasion excluding their SO simply based on the fact that the SO is non desi and follows different religion. I badly need new set of friends!!

I was giving my kid the advice that the path you sometimes believe you are on is not necessarily where you will land, in a good way, and to stay open to those paths.

Help me make my point.

What did you THINK you were going to do when you started college, and what do you do today?

I thought that the occasional visits from the recently divorced single mother that moved in down the hall was the best thing that ever happened to me. I was wrong, getting that mouse jiggler is the best thing that ever happened to me.

I find it disturbing that people all of a sudden think remote work = 1/2 work 1/2 care for children

How do you know when it's time to break up with your therapist?

Does anyone here have that one friend with really high standards for food and complains all the time you go out..

Welcome all to parents in Consulting bowl, please post a little bit about yourself, number of kids and their ages!

Does anyone else struggle with their significant other not understanding the nature and demand of our work? We constantly fight about me staying late and blames it on poor time management.

Currently I don't have laptop and i want to access tcs payslips, how can do that?

Is the IT infrastructure side of ServiceNow a good niche to focus in? My last 2 consulting projects were relating to APM & CMDB so I’m wondering if I should stick with this

Would like to start a bowl that is more focused on (Western) Europe. Are there a lot of fish here from the European region?

All the posts I read in this bowl are centered around GC and priority dates. Am I the only one that can’t even seem to win the H1B lottery? Down to my final try 🤞🏼

What is the average compensation range for Staff software engineer in mckinsey digital...having 12 years of experience in Cloud and DevOps technology.

Do any of you have side-jobs or maybe hobbies that you make money from? Alternatively, what do you think sounds like a good one to look into?

Would taking a director of legal operations position (jd preferred or a plus) make it hard to get back to practicing in a firm or another company?

Can someone connect me to a business analyst role that doesn’t require a ton of prior business analyst experience? I have ~1.5 YOE in valuation (modeling, financial statement analysis) and am looking to make a switch. Mainly looking for a role with less hours than I’m currently working (60-70). Thank you I’m advance

Preference and viewpoints on B2B vs B2C ?

How is the PPC/digital advertising department structured in your oganization? Paid social ads and google ads, for example, are under the same manager? Or is the split by KPIs, like awareness vs performance?

Peter re: each one of his girls — “there’s just something about her. I’ve got a really good feeling”

Layoffs at Walmart corporate 😬😬

I’m a CMA who works in Behavioral Health. I have been asked to float to different offices to assist other providers because we are short staffed. I don’t mind because I thought this would be temporary. The problem now is the positions available have no applicants as of yesterday. Not one applicant! The positions have been posted for 2 months or more. I feel since I’m doing the job of 3 CMAs I should get a raise. Any ideas on how to present my case for a wage increase to management?

Where is citi office in gurgaon??

Just joined fishbowl. Getting familiar with the content and see it’s mostly US-based professionals.
Would be great to develop this EU group!
I’m based out of Luxembourg, what about everyone else?

Not necessarily Big Law specific but any firms hiring 2-3 year L&E associates in the Dallas area?

We’ve all said “I wish I’d done that ad.” Which SB ad do you wish was your idea?

And now...and ad for music

I’m beginning to think all the 2020 SB briefs started with... “we need a big personality to represent our brand.” Since when is celebrity a substitute for concept?🤔

Groundhog Day wins it for me. Perfect cultural reference to fit the message and a lovely execution.

Thank you all for the Super Bowl Bowl!

Seems like “the button” is back as an advertising device. Been absent for a while but coming back in force this year.

Google spot just killed me 😢

TurboTax, fun, I am feeling it

thanks to all the CCOs & ECDs for putting up with our shit and sarcasm - we wouldnt have been posting if it wasnt for you posting openly ✌️

Was anyone else expecting the Tide 'later' guy to show-up in the P&G ad? Missed opportunity? Or too expected?

CELEBRITIES ARE NOT A CONCEPT

That was fun by Audi. Love the choice of song.

That snickers commercial was amazing so far my fav. We should feed the world a snickers

New York Life. Beautiful.

Gary Vee took credit for that baby nut commercial on Twitter. Love me some Gary Vee but not so much Baby Nut.

On another time, a younger me would have loved the Porsche Heist ad. Now, however, the concept just feels dated (and a bit lite for Porsche). Fun to shoot tho. Am I the only one?

I hate ketchup but somehow that Heinz ad is my favorite so far.

I’m already sick of Joe Buck.

Smarht Parhk? Nice .
