Did the Delta variant come from a Delta flight?

My anxiety makes me good at my job. My incessant checking, and double checking, and analyzing has earned me praise, trust, and early promotions. Sometimes I wonder, if I were to take medication to give myself some relief, and to stop the panic attacks, would I be less productive? And then I wonder, do I value my own health so little? But I’m so validated by my performance...sad isn’t it? Hope I’m not alone.

Does anyone miss airline and hotel points? I hit gold (a small achievement I know) with AA this time last year, and now I’ve been in my home for nearly 3 weeks straight.

I desperately need help/guidance from someone, I tried going to some therapists but they just emphasize antidepressants.

Below are my thoughts rn: Man, I’m 28 and such a bum. I work a job I hate, I have no social circle. I have never had a gf. All these things are so challenging because I’m autistic. I can’t change that. What’s the point of living when society treats ppl like me like I don’t matter. Maybe I should just take a bunch of sleeping pills so I don’t have to deal with life anymore.

Really regret not selling United Wholesale Mortgages. Very confused on what to do with this one. Unless it gets PT it’s gonna be stuck around the 10 range. Think I may be eat the loss on first say a dividend is available

What's your experience working with United Way?

PR agencies: why are we even talking about going back to the office before a vaccine? Our jobs can be done 100% remotely with no negative effects. I’m confused why there is such a focus on talking about this right now

I am done trying to pretend everything is fine at work. The higher ups on the team kept asking if I’m doing anything fun for the weekend during video calls. I felt the pressure to make something up but I just can’t. I’ve been struggling with depression, loneliness, anxiety with immigration and the fact that I might be out of work soon cuz my visa is expiring. I’m thousands of miles away from my family and I just want everything to stop. But when my manager kept asking in front of everyone am I

Started eating healthy and going to the gym two days ago and already lost 5 lbs. was this the secret to being skinny all along?

How do we proceed with using this benefit? How to enroll if i want to start with IUI?

I am in the process of IVF due to my husband's male factor infertility. I am so grateful for the benefits that EY provides and wanted to know if there is any consideration for reevaluating those benefits? We know that IVF is incredibly expensive and for some of us, having children is a top priority. Does anyone know where or how we can petition for enhanced or shared benefits? I have ideas.

I have been finding a number of providers that are in-network (UHC) but the surgery centers are out of network and I was told that I have to use in-network. Has anyone else encountered this problem? I'm not seeing how much use the benefit is when the most expensive part is out of network.

Hi, will be staying in London next week. Does anyone have an Accenture rate code for the Marriot / Hilton in London?

Travel and TTC combo haven’t worked. After 6 months, the only offer I got included 4 weeks paid and FLMA only after 1 year. So 1) go and risk laughable benefits or 2) stay but risk TTC. So shitty 😭

For personal travel. What website/app do you use for flights?

Does this benefit cover procedures such as freezing eggs?

This is a bit specific of a Q, but has anyone here gone to an ED treatment center in NY? Which one/Did you find it helpful?

Any cheap gym membership in the King Of Prussia area? Currently with LA fitness but if I can lower gym cost that’d be great.

Stupid Question- We have been thinking for IVF and trying to understand with this process, is there any difference in the health and life of the child as compared to a child born without IVF. I did ask this with our doctor and he said casually its all same. This is not to question any doctor but just to really understand what is going to be different with the kid. This is not very old technology and not much studies as well.

I got that coveted big law job.

But I would much rather want a family of my own and someone to hug and kiss, something I feel really sad about around christmas.

Never had much contact with my dad, and two years ago, I broke off contact with my mother because I realized that she had been a manipulative narcissist my entire childhood.

Working 50-60h weeks on average doesn’t help your dating life though, and who would want to date someone with no family anyway

It still surprises me to this day how a flawed form of reasoning like identity politics is in the mainstream of political discourse in this country.

Best recent healthcare books related to improving our broken system? Atul Gawande’s books are a bit dated now I think.

Best neighborhoods for trick or treating tonight??

My boss asked me what id like to do moving forward at work. The department im in has gone under many changes the past few months. I was really hoping the business would put me in a place they “need” me but instead it’s up to me…
My goal is to reach the top, climb the ladder and one day be CEO. I have a lot of outside influences that make this a possible venture.
I’m currently in sales but don’t know if the right path is to continue in.

#TEAMiPHONE - love how in every airport for Delta flights I hear, if us have Samsung 7 please power it off before boarding the flight and refrain from charging the phone on the flight.

STARTUP FOUNDERS and FAANG: would you rather hire MBB with 3-4 years of exp or Tier 2 with 5-6 years? If you could isolate those variables and everything else held constant.

Know this may be a long shot in terms of actual responses but:
@PPMDs, what are your thoughts on the current/impending COVID specific layoffs at your firm?

E.G. Glad for the opportunity to reduce the headcount of mid performing SMs with little/no chance of making PPMD? Sad to see a firm you’re a part of undergo such unforeseen circumstances?

Trying to think through whether it’s worth it to refinance my non-federal student loans. Currently at 4.13% interest fixed and paying $1.2k/month with just over 2 years of payments left. Thinking I’d still pay around that much per month if not more but at least save on interest. Any thoughts for or against?

Heard BCG laid off quite a few people this summer. Is this true?

Question for Capgemini fish:

I am a US citizen, Employed in US on a 6 month contract with Capgemini. Planning to travel to Canada and work from there for the entire 6 months.

I know this would be an issue from tax perspective, but want to know if

Capgemini would somehow track my location and know that I am not in US ?

M/SM and above, why do you label a meeting as “touch point” or ask if you can have a “quick chat” when it’s something serious? Millennials like us always assume we’re about to get fired - I actually have been laid off in a meeting with that title. But at my new job, my boss asked for a “quick chat” to literally ask me to change the title of a meeting and then chat about christmas. Now that I’m in management, I want to understand it better.

Is it difficult to switch to another consulting firm with a little over one year of experience? How would you go about contacting a recruiter for an interview? Any advice would be much appreciated 🐠

Question for Goggins & Jocko Fans: How do you use their messaging to get you motivated on work related activities - such as delivering quality work, finishing that slide deck or prepping for an interview? It appears that they are more geared towards motivating the couch potato in to exercising.

I wonder how Jocko would handle consulting life :)

Looking for book recommendations; any favorites? Interested in both fiction and educational/self-improvement (for example, investment / finance books, time management, etc). I feel my vocab is...
