So I guess living here for decades since I was a kid doesn’t count just because I was born elsewhere huh

I once had someone who grew up in Southie tell me you need to live in Boston for 10+ years and have a child in Boston. So I’ve been using his definition. My son was born last year, so now I can officially say I’m from Boston. 😆

funny

I mean. I’ve lived here 15 years, own a home in the city, etc. and if I’m traveling and someone casually asks where I’m from, I’ll say Boston. Because that’s answering their question. But am I *from* Boston, when it gets down to it? No, not exactly. That implies more, where were you born/grew up. And that’s what I ask when I want to know that: “where did you grow up?”

Hi all, I have about 7 years of professional experience but only one year as a Customer Success Manager. I work on mid market accounts currently. I love my job, but would prefer to support a more robust platform that will allow me to add more value for my customers.

I’d appreciate your thoughts on what compensation you might expect for a CSM transitioning to a new company with one year of experience.

To clarify, I don’t have an offer yet, I’m just looking to make a move.

Thank you!

Buy/lease now or defer to Q1-2023?

My car broke (engine seized, 10y old). I am interested in 530i ($62k price), however 3year lease is $1,000+ monthly (with $5k down). Monthly lesse payment is 50% more than bmw advertised offers (“south FL dealers are not participating in the program”)

Q to car gurus/experts- should I defer purchase/lease for 6 months? My logic, the impending recession will reduce demand and we will go back to more balanced market (lower prices with negotiation).
