Despite being really proud of what I’ve accomplished professionally I’m still super petty and jealous of certain people reaching certain levels of professional success.

I’m not particularly proud, but I’m also not jealous. Go figure.

I have no idea why I wrote ‘go figure’ at the end of that. You don’t have to ‘go do’ anything. Maybe try some stretching, though. I do some right before bed and it really sorts me out. x

Hi all,
I am from Deloitte USI, Pune. Can anyone let me know whether Deloitte USI has a professional Cricket team/Club? Would love to be a part of it. I have represented state team (U-19) and national team as well :) Do we have various tournaments too where we can play with other Company teams?
If we don't have any club, then we should create one. I can volunteer in preparing one.
Its good to see that Deloitte focuses a lot on Well-being. So, we can write to higher authorities to have a club!!

My American citizen 8 month old is on tourist visa in India; current stay runs out on June 7. Flying outside the country is a risk we don’t want to take w/COVID. Don’t want to overstay the visa either. So we applied online on eFRRO to convert his visa to X-1 so we can apply for his OCI. They didn’t ask for payment and message popped up saying watch your text/email for next steps. Anything else I can do?
