Doing personal travel on the weekend before the holiday and cringing at how inefficient & slow everyone is.

Which would be the best insurance for parents visiting the US?

So i travel regularly for work to another city. Whilst there last week I matched with a girl on tinder. We face timed and seemed to get along but didn’t meet up as time didn’t permit before my flight home. Back at home, we start texting casually. When I don’t reply straight away her messages become accusatory “am I with my wife/gf” etc. Another day when I tell her that I’ve been out for lunch with a colleague she wants to know their gender and if it genuinely is just a colleague.

I have an offer and want to negotiate

1. London base salary but I have to absorb all the expenses (train + stay)
I am thinking to negotiate to

2. home base salary and have my expenses paid for

I know that's depends on the amount I have to travel (and potentially stay) but at the moment this is unknown. Past 8 months was just twice a month + 2 nights stay.

People in luxury buildings - do you also give a holiday gift to the rest of the staff? I’m mainly talking the people who may come in to fix things or for example the guy who mops the lobby every few days?

Pretty certain I will be fired or asked to quit if I can’t pass a licensing exam in a few weeks as it’s my final try. I’m just a horrible test taker and work life balance + studying hasn’t been great. I don’t want to lose my holiday bonus & am nervous about the current job market if I was fired. I just want to have back up options in case the exam doesn’t go my way. What would you do in my scenario?

Not sure if it’s just me, but does anyone else experience people from Pune visiting their LinkedIn nearly every day, multiple times a day? I’ve got a folk (or several folks?) from “Flexisales” and other Pune-based companies that have been viewing my profile every day for the past few months now. Doesn’t bother me too much, I just wish I knew who they were and what they wanted….

Does having dinner with colleague with the opposite gender = having a date in the workplace? I was reading some news about Bill Gates and found it is being implied this way.

I am not interested in Bill Gate’s story - this is a general question about what is appropriate in workplace. It’s common to have working lunch with colleagues (sometime two people with opposite genders in a small team) in consulting (especially pre-COVID), but it looks like “dinner” has quite a different meaning?

Have you listened?

You ever miss a toxic SM cuz there’s trauma bonding. Every time I see my old SM I just miss him…even though I had an awful time on the project.

Lately, I have been seeing many posts about consultants leaving or planning on leaving their firm. If you were asked to create your dream firm where you would spend the rest of your career, what non-salary things would you want (benefits, lifestyle, workload)?
