Friends! I hope y’all had a great Thanksgiving! I ran my first 5k on Thanksgiving which was definitely different but made me feel good 🤩💪🏽

Are y’all shopping today? Or waiting for Cyber Monday?

I'm more a Cyber Monday person. I don't like waiting in long live or fighting over a pair of shoes lol I'd rather do my shopping from the comfort of my own bed. And Congrats on the 5k. Good way to burn off all the Thanksgiving turkey.

Congrats! I'm usually pretty into fitness but I cannot even imagine running on Thanksgiving. I am in full-on lounge and leftovers mode.

No fr and that’s my norm! This was definitely a first 😂😂

Congratulations! That must have been a big achievement for you. That's another thing to be thankful for, having a sound mind and body to run for 5k. Anyways, I'm saving my wishlist for Cyber Monday.

Thank you! It definitely felt good to try it was my first time and I never got a metal before loll I am not a athlete by any means 😂🤦🏽‍♀️ so it was Big

Way to go, OP! That must've been such a big deal for you. I wish I could say I've also been productive over Thanksgiving, but sadly my routine has only been eat, sleep, repeat for the past few days. How does it feel for you?

This was a Big deal because I am not a runner at all but the race was at 9am so it gave me some amazing energy that morning it was actually great. I think I’m going to make it a tradition not gone lie. And the monies was for charity surrounding young mothers it was nice

I ran my very first 5k as well! It was so challenging yet it amazed me how my mind and body could have taken all that. It really made me feel so good and confident. I felt like I'm on top of the world! Congratulations to us, OP!

uplifting

Omg yesss Congratulations!! We experienced same feelings! Will you move on to 10k? We have to! 💪🏽🎉🤩

Congratulations

Thanks!

I have two offers in hand. KPMG and Deloitte. CTC is almost same whereas variable is more in KPMG. I am inclined towards Deloitte India. But HR in KPMG told me that I won't be able to join KPMG India in future as I accepted their offer. I informed her within 2 weeks and didn't do anything for onboarding. I didn't ask to increase the amount or JB and I strongly believe I informed early so they can look for other candidates. Is this bluff? Any HR here to clarify
