Do you have discussions at work about religious faiths? I've noticed a lot of religious and non-religious, Muslim and non Muslim folks at work will come up to me and start conversations that have to do with faith. It's mostly questions about the things I follow and practice, I guess it's inviting to talk about these topics with me because I'm openly religious. Any others with similar experiences? Do you feel comfortable, or do you try not to frequent such conversations?

Yeah, I have some colleagues who ask me questions, but it's always coming from a place of genuine curiosity, so I don't usually mind. There are times I say I don't like discussing my religious faith, but most of the time I'm ok with it.

Strangely no one has ever approached me with faith related questions. It’s only once or twice and that too when I sent a calendar invite for OOO for Eid or something. My understanding is people know these are sensitive topics so not sure why they would bring those up. It also depends on your relationship with colleagues. Maybe I don’t have frank and friendly relationships at work.

I’ve been with my current company for a little over 5 years now and since the start of the pandemic have been WFH. I absolutely love WFH and have always wanted a position in which I could WFH. There is talk of bringing everyone back to the office full time and that’s not what I would like to happen. I’ve been searching for a new position in which it would be a remote role. My current company also said I am maxed out in term of what they are willing to pay salary wise.

Hi!

I recently did a job interview and I made it clear to the HR my expectation salary is 60k a year, non negotiable.
Today I got the job offer and they are offering me 54k. My current company is making me 50k with tons of benefits which is why I am asking for 60k.

Should I accept the offer or renegotiate?
