Do you believe in donating clothing and shoes you haven’t worn for a year (or two), even if they still fit and nothing is wrong with the items? I tend to wear my newer items and my favorite pieces.
Thoughts?

I tend to keep everything that fits. I need to get better with giveaway & only keep my favorites. I went up one pant size & should try everything on to get rid of stuff. Haven’t yet though.

As I get older I’m getting better at getting rid of what I don’t use. I’ve also gotten better at not buying in the first place. I have a goal to have a small capsule wardrobe and it’s getting there slowly, just got a few more items I need to bite the bullet and toss.

Same!

I'm general yes, other than damaged/ragged pieces, special occasion pieces, and outerwear.

I for sure donate - I don’t have endless storage for clothing. Also, if I’m not using it, there are others who will/can.

My newest rule - to help manage the storage/sprawl issue - every time I buy something (new pair of jeans), an old pair must go. Otherwise it’s endless accumulation.

Depends why I haven’t worn the shoes or clothes. In general, I will try to resell or donate as much as I can to avoid tossing anything directly into the trash.

Yes, I don’t like holding on to things not getting use.

Buy nothing group is better than goodwill
Then goodwill and other donation centers
Things that aren’t good enough for giving to someone go to recycling like Take Back Bag

Hello, I have a question that needs your inputs how to handle. I am working with a post-MBA Associate on a project and this person seems to do extra work beyond what the team is asking the rest of us to do. I think during our conversations with the leadership, there were a couple of points that were brought up by the MD but that was not a concrete directive that we need to do because if it is, I would know about it from the chain email since I am staffed to the project.

Trying to set family expectations and would love thoughts on 2 things. 1. How long after baby will I be ready for visitors beyond our parents? I’m thinking a few weeks. 2. Our 3 grandmothers are 1-3 hour flights away (3 diff places) and cannot travel. When will we be ready to take baby to see them? I’m thinking 4-6 months but that would also be flu/RSV season. Can’t predict the future but family is already talking about trips and I want to set expectations and do what is best for baby. TIA!!

I have worked with Forbes top companies, for-profits, non-profits, & startups. I consider myself a solver of complex & complicated problems requiring mixed method research & novel solutions. This has led to issues in self-referencing title. I’ve been project manager, data engineer, developer, modeler, analysts, principle DB developer, etc. Most of my w2 work has been from offers of 1099 clients so I am usually asked to define my own title. Any T-shaped data people who run into this?
