Could be a silly question — i am beginning to look for a new apartment in the city and ideally want to rent from private landlords rather than going thru Apartment People / @ Properties / Compass, etc. How do you find private landlords?! I have good credit and am very clean! A landlord would love me lol

The apartments I found on domu.com were both private landlords and property management companies depending on the type of property (I was looking in LP which has a ton of private landlords). Try it and see if it works?

Thanks so much!

I moved here from Boston and used Domu. We also walked around neighborhoods we liked and saw a ton of for rent by owner signs in windows, just called those numbers and set up showing.

My firm really values work life balance. You can be successful in consulting and still work 40 hour weeks. You just have to set boundaries with your manager.

Hello!

I joined Accenture 5 months back as a lateral hire ( Level 11 ) and have been a part of a project since day one.

I am not enjoying my work here, no motivation at all. Dreaded to report to work and having stress and anxiety. My manager is trying to micromanage me as productivity is on the lower side.

Another thing is, I have started to dislike my current tech and no more interested in it.
What are my options here ?
Is project release possible ?
or I have to put down papers ?
