Crossposting from Travel Bowl: Any roadtrip ideas out of LA for an anniversary trip? We just had a kid so not flying yet, but running out of places to drive to. Any hidden gems or short trip to a really nice resort would work too.

Are people seeing travel or working on-site again after the apocalypse? If yes where do you work?

For me personally I really want to get back to some form of being on-site with customers and team etc.

At Cap it seems only the DV Basements Brigade are on site again.

Which excel tools do you use to simplify your process, sort through your data easier and to be able to identify key figures quicker? Trying to move into strategy and believe this would help move things quicker than just standard filters. Thank you.

How do I get signatories to fill in their company name correctly on a DocuSign PowerForm NDA? I’m not allowed to reach out to people in advance and prepare customized NDAs for them, because “everyone is automated” and “that’s too slow and causes too much work for them.” I moved the signatory info to the signature block and made a “Full Legal Name of Entity you Represent” line, but people still screw it up and I’m getting blamed. WTF do I do?

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?

Dear FB team, greetings of the day! I want to check opportunities to join Bain & Company for accounts payable Senior Manager

I feel like there are talks of a “California Exodus” that happens every 10 years.

But with the pandemic, people’s loss of faith in CA politics, transplants moving back home, and people opting to move either to more suburban cities or out of state for cheaper housing options because they’ll be WFH permanently, do you guys think that this time around, a “California Exodus” actually has legs?

As a native Angeleno, I’m interested to see how much the city will change after this pandemic.

Is there anyone who lives around mar vista, Culver City or Venice who would be willing to teach me how to ride a bike or know anyone who can. I don’t mind paying, thank you!

Any agencies in LA looking for an ACD writer?
