All the time. And yes, I’m paranoid about this problem. If I’m at home and not actively presenting or talking I’ll put the phone on mute and speaker in another room so I’m not at risk of hitting the wrong button.

No but I walked into the wrong bathroom due to distraction, panicked and then had to drop the call because I was seen by a bathroom user and was completely freaked out so did the natural thing of ghosting out of the call

Hardware buttons are the best

Im currently studying Industrial Engineering with a minor in management.

Would not getting that minor do any harm to me short or long term? Im thinking that if I end up at consulting especially no one will care about a management minor they’ll just look at the firm I worked for.

I a mid-level litigator and have an offer at a FAANG, however, I still have roughly $230,000 in student debt. If I can delay my start until June, I will receive the newest round of special bonuses and can make a lump sum payment of ~$50,000 (all principal with the 0%). If I decline the offer and stay with my firm, I can make another $50,000 payment at the end of the year. I ultimately want to be in house, preferably in tech. Would I be crazy to decline to use the bonuses to make big chunk pmnts?
