I did the same thing 😂😂

that’s where you got to negotiate and ask in writing for a promotion in exchange for helping out with BD, etc.

Yeah, I agree. I had to tell partners and our professional practice group not to ask me to do anything next week cause it ain’t happening. 😂🤣

I am in the same boat! Competing priorities and deadlines. Not sure I’m going to make it, but I sure am trying.

Op-Ed: As a black man with parents from Africa, I feel like Black people have been receiving reparations for decades now. Any further reparations are most likely going to be a waste of resources and regressive—especially if their fiscal.

Take someone like me:

A. Grew up in a single parent home with six brothers.

B. Had to move eight times in eight years because we were always renting a house.

C. I have three brothers who are either in jail or is a recovering addict.

But me (cont’d)...

Question then a confession:
Do you think people look completely different when they’ve gained weight, especially chubs on the face?
I’m 5’11” M and gained 25lbs (195lbs) in the last 6 months. I looked in the mirror today, took some pictures and compared them to myself when I was fit at 170lbs. I think I look very different (much uglier ofc) - maybe it’s just me?
Confession: I feel like a lazy f*ck and ran a mile today 😂 Will be hitting exercise hard and will hit that 170 by December 💪😈
