Does anyone actually use a standing desk at home?

My back hurts so I’ve been laying on the floor looking at Fishbowl all day instead of doing my job.

How did you get started in your career as an FA? I work in the home office and have been an assistant to an FA before. I have a network, I have ambition, I have credibility and connections at my firm..

Just landed a full time gig, looking to get some furniture so I’m not working on my parents’ kitchen table during this remote period. Any recommendations for desks and chairs? I’m hoping to find something that’s easy to assemble and break down for when I need to move, and something that won’t cost an arm and a leg.

I know everyone has a different kind of setup that works for them. I currently have a laptop, drawing pad, second monitor, and a desk riser.

Looking for ergonomic office chair recommendations, budget is $500. Any suggestions?

What’s your favorite WFH footwear? Any recommended brands for a chilly home office?

Finally getting a chance to put together a home office space. Looking for tips, photos, ideas. I have two monitors and a laptop so my do a three screen set-up. Debating about getting a standing desk or putting money in a super comfy leather chair. Open to hearing what you have done!

Standing desk people: do you get a mat or anything for your feet?

Anyone know if the wellness subsidy would cover an office chair? Or does D cover office supplies or nah? Looking to upgrade my home office. Thx!

First year in consulting, is it worth purchasing a car this early? I’m living at home and about a 45 minute car ride away from my home office. Any suggestions? What have you done?

Have you ever tried to bring about a change/stood up for something at home/office etc. Did it succeed/fail? How was the experience?

Anyone found an affordable adjustable standing desk they like? I have an iMac and a laptop is like to be able to fit on it.

Hi, this bowl isn't very active but I think it would be important to share BPG compensation increases for FY23. I received 5% merit and 5% VC. I am a Manager in MCOL. Non client facing.

I got offer as Associate (Technology) from pwc. Can I extend my joining date for 3-4 weeks?

Mid year promotions, I found out you need to make your own case for it rather than the firm coming to you. If you think you’re ready make sure you speak up!

How do you tell your boss you're quitting without burning bridges? Please note we're in busy season for the engagements I've been staffed on, which is what makes me nervous and guilty. TIA

Hi! I used to work at PwC and currently work at Friedman. I’ve been at Friedman for about a year and a half and I love it! We are hiring at an experienced associate and senior associate level! Cont..

Seniors - how many engagements do you typically lead concurrently? I've been the only senior on two concurring SOC reports and it's been killing me.

Freelancers: Are interviewing for freelance jobs different? Only 1 interview then you start or a few like staff? Experiencing different things and don't know what to make of it!

Anyone go from SaaS / licensing sales to services (strategy & implementation) sales?

I'm thinking of moving from large cap tech to large cap consultancy firm to help build the resume and round out my experience. I enjoy and do well in licensing, but I'm fairly young in my career (<6 years) and received a great offer to make the move.

Big fan of the org and team I'll be joining as well.

Thanks!!

I’m pretty nervous for this because I have no idea how this is going to go and how this is going to end up… but it’ll be fun if at least one person shows up! I’ll be there with a friend— I have major social anxiety, but I do need to meet more people/make more friends.

I hope to see you there! 🤝🏼

Can someone explain why alcohol is so debilitating on your health? I had a single drink and the next day at the gym I could feel that drink just wreaking havoc on my workout routine. Anyone have any tips on getting a balance?

Just did the 60 min Beyoncé Bootcamp on the Peloton Tread and I thought I was going to die a few times. 😅

Anyone use magnetic earrings to promote lymph flow? Notice any effects or have any info to share on that topic?

Does anyone have experience with coolsculpting? I am considering having my upper arms done. I am fit and not looking to lose weight- just address some stubborn pockets of fat that I have always been insecure about. Thanks in advance!

Any on Forward for Health Care?
New here to Fishbowl so first post.
Interested to hear if anyone is using Forward for their primary health care service?
Thinking about joining.
Interesting subscription based cost model but basically pushing interactive, team based approach to long term health care with a good blend of tech and analytics built in.

I want my pre Covid abs back, but I also discovered that I really really like food. I eat healthy all day until 2 pm :( what type of snacks to keep around not to feel like I am depriving myself?

Food has been my no. 1 source of self soothing / de-stressing over the years and now trying to find alternatives when anxious or stressed. For those who have tried this, what has worked for you? Thank you🙏🏽

Does anyone else get really cold feet? I’m wearing three layers of socks and still not super warm. The rest of my body is relatively fine but it feels like my feet stay ice cold no matter what I do. I tried googling what health issue this might be/remedies to no avail 😕

Anyone find a collagen powder/supplement that actually doesn’t taste like anything (or even better, tastes good)?

Even the “unflavored” vital proteins had an offputting flavor to me so any suggestions are much appreciated!

I’m about 10 pounds heavier than I was in college 3 years ago, but I have defined ab muscles and better endurance/strength than ever before. But I can’t help thinking I still feel a little chubby in

Thinking about getting a fitness tracker, like a Fitbit, anyone have any recommendations? Want to spend under $100, but willing to spend a bit more if it’s really worth it.

I’ve been weightlifting at my boyfriend’s home gym, but when I’m home I’m a bit scared about using sizable weight without a spot. What have you guys been doing regarding solo workouts? I go to a local gym, but I don’t know anyone there

Anyone do macro counting? How do you like it?

Peloton worth it?

How short do you cut your nails?

Meal prep ideas - that work for you? - looking for something that is 10 mins of prep time or less during the week, healthy and offers variety (tired of the same 3-4 veges on repeat)! I prefer lots of veges, fish and occasional lean meats

Whenever i have a big deadline, my body goes into a panic mode where my energy immediately goes to figuring out how I’ll get something done well and on time. Outwardly, I don’t seem stressed so no one notices but actually I usually feel like I have a cold: fatigue, headache, sore throat, sinus infection. When a task is done, i stop feeling like crap. It’s been like this since law school. Any tips on managing stress or moving towards doing good work without my body shutting down lol?

I’m interested in investing in a pair of cycling shoes that clip in for studio classes - any reviews of Tiem brand?
