Gas is 5.30 in California right now. This is insane. Thanks Pootain.

Did your employer have you sign a non-compete? If so, what specialty do you work?

Hi All,

Please let me know if there is an opening in your organization for Cloud Strategy consultants (4YOE)
I am serving NP and have already interviewed with Big 4s.

Thanks in advance.

I have a recurring thought that really brings me down and I can’t seem to get past it.
Some days I feel I am pretty good at what I do (not a leadership role) but then I see leaders in my own organization that are great at what they do and I don’t believe that I could ever get to their level of competence. Then I think of all the people my age who are appear to be doing those things and wonder we what’s wrong with me.
Have any of you felt this and how have you gotten past it?

How do i join the consulting bowl on this app? I somehow cant find it? Thanks

🤙 When interviewer asking - “Where do you see yourself in 5 years? “
What is the most relevant answer? 🤥

Currently working on 2 deals, just assigned a third... Good time to start my all water diet for the next month?

A $1T valuation is fine, but Tim Cook should be fired for the value loss that came from actually producing products, being famously boring and not losing his mind on social media.

Almost 2 years out of AD, and now thinking about going back to the Reserves to get my TSCI and just cause I miss it. Does anyone have insights on fed consultants’ salary with a TSCI?

Hey guys, can anyone quide me to get some freelancing work, or projects?
Thankyou in advance

USA: has anybody quit a job on a L1A to get a new one with a sponsored O1? I’d love to hear your experience!

I was on a tour but where I asked a couple of older women sitting behind me to speak softly as it was 6:30 am in the morning. After that they kept saying loudly that i’m smelling and that i need to use deo and that i should keep my arm down. I confronted them later and they said respect your elders?? I want to ruin their vacation. What else can I do?

Tell me what to do in Iceland

Sorry if this has been asked before but anyone have recommendations for brands that typically have a thiner profile? I’m shopping around for a piece in the $1k-$2k range (willing to buy pre owned).

Qualys is very bad company, nothing positive, only good thing medical insurance and 1 month np

🐠 Would you rather work on award winning next level creative with zero work life balance or churn out mediocre work and have a healthy work life balance?

On the topic of intimacy with partners… I’ve been with my boyfriend for 2 years and the past year his libido has dropped to zero. Mostly due to work stress (he says). Whenever I try to initiate, he always shuts me down and says he’s not in the mood. I even touch him and he gets hard but stops me as soon as I try to unzip him. We went from once a week to maybe once a quarter.

I’ve talked to him about it and he says I should take care of myself. So frustrated. 😭😭

I’m a newspaper advice columnist on the side and looking for real requests for advice for my column that I can respond to. I may print your letter anonymously and my reply with your permission.

Love to see Duke lose

I am 25 F. Working in Aerospace & Military Defence Co as a Technical Buyer. I have 2 years expierence within administrative roles, 1 year in procurement. I got this role after interviewing for one below (purchasing assistant) the salary for that role was 21-24K. I was already on 24K so they offered me the same salary - however, the buyer role came up and they offered me this instead but same salary -24K. I have a pay review in April, I want to ask for 28K, is this too much?

I’ve been married in a Catholic Church before and now divorced but my now boyfriend says he wants to marry me in a Catholic Church someday. How do I even start a petition for that? Also is that possible to re-marry in a Catholic Church?

I tried to break up with my SO and instead they talked their way out of it for an hour and we're now on a "break" that involves the same amount of contact as before so not really sure what i accomplished

My sister thinks that me being miffed about a guy not finding time to text back within 24 hours is abrasive and demanding.

She’s a people pleaser and different personality, but dang I’m not asking for much.

Hi all. I was recently diagnosed with bipolar disorder type 2 and it’s been hard to heal with the ups and downs of a very competitive sales position in the current market. Before taking FMLA for 12 weeks I was a top performer. Any advice from those that also live with bipolar disorder, or advice on a potentially a less stressful position to ease out of sales? I have 7 years healthcare sales and 1.5 years as a MLO.

How many hours do you actually work on an average day?

Just gamed with some guys (freshmen and sophmore). I am almost 30 and they remind me of those old days. Miss those fun and young friendships. All my friends married and have kids now.

Hypothetical Q: If a house has two half baths and three full baths, how are they counted? 4 Baths, or 3.5 baths +.5 baths?

Just found out that my favorite aunt, who claimed I was her “favorite” niece, chose to leave all her valuables to her other two nieces who never visited or called her once in the last ten years. My aunt passed away suffering from cancer last year and didn’t have her own kids. I was there by her side throughout her battle. I still wish I had done more, made her life easier. I probably sound petty, but a part of me is forcing me to re-evaluate every interaction I ever had with her.

I love iPhones but I hate just about every other Apple product. I hate Macs and the AirPods are terrible and can’t stay on. Im just bummed that I’m sucked into their ecosystem and can’t deal with no having things sync. Goddamn! The Macs are just such terrible machines. Regret buying one!

I’m turning 40 this year. While I don’t want a mid life crisis (although getting a bike or sports car again do sound nice…), I do look forward to when I’ll just not give a f*ck. Worrying what others think is incredibly draining.

Getting over heartbreak and having a full time job is torture lol. My boyfriend and I just broke up after almost a year of being together. It was such a beautiful relationship but ultimately he just didn’t love me. I love him so much. My mind knows that I deserve reciprocal love and I’m worthy, but I feel physically ill. My body hurts, my stomach is in knots, my head hurts. How is it that I have to mend a broken heart but also meet my billable hours lmao

It's true, tis is my confession.
I shower 6 times a day. AMA

It’s my birthday today. Took off from work. In a chatty mood. Anyone want to talk? Lol. M fish 🐠 here.

This middle schooler told me that smelling nice makes your more eloquent and then sprayed me with something. I don't know what he did but after that I had a weird axe-scent.

Anyone actually use the Networking feature here on fishbowl? Like yeah I see some of you with it on but do you actually use it besides thirsty dms?
