What are some easy to make, low stress holiday meals for a school holiday staff party? I was "volunteered" by our principal to set it up this year (🙄). I'm making decorated sugar cookies but kind of drawing a blank when it comes to savory dishes. Bonus points if you have any adult holiday themed games or fun drinks to suggest! It's off school property and there will be a bar (thank god), for context.

Best romantic dinner spot in Boston? I'm going to propose.

What software companies have offices (HQ or remote offices) in San Diego area?

EY advisory laptops - do you get to choose a model or is one just randomly assigned to you?

Anyone here have comorbid anxiety and/or depression? How did you know, and how do you manage it now? I think I might be struggling with one or both and I’m trying to figure out how to proceed. Not currently seeing a therapist or medicated, managing based on strategies I learned from an ADHD coach back in college, so at minimum I would need to find a provider, which has been a barrier (cost-wise, finding someone with experience with ADHD, etc.)

I really wanna get out of NY, even if just for a few years, but I feel like most low COL places don’t have great agencies or work. Anyone make a move for a bit?

How do you maintain Gym schedule if you are out at clients often?

I just found out I am pregnant and the person is not a believer. I know i have sinned, and now i am so lost. Abortion has crossed my mind multiple times. Not sure what i am doing posting here, I just needed to vent.

So I'm an older student with 10+ years of career experience. I am trying to update my resumes, yes plural, because I have experience in many industries. My biggest struggle right now is keeping my skills list concise for Marketing Analyst. What is an appropriate number of listed skills for both hard and soft

Any clue when the scatter plots are out?

Anyone leave Deloitte for Booz Allen? Thoughts or experiences? Utilization and compliance are absolutely doing my head in.

After nearly 20 years in the military serving in T&E and HR roles, I’m considering moving on and have been conducting lots of research into consulting. BS, MA, and SPHR cert - no MBA. I’m looking for suggestions or advise about transitioning. DC Metro area is likely landing spot.

What tools do you use to conduct vendor research and select a vendor? Any helpful tools to standardize the process and keep everything organized and make it into a nice report?

Looking for a bit of insight on how commission or bonus is structured on flat rate residential real estate at Canadian law firms. I was offered a good base salary and I was asked what type of structure I was looking for. I am uncertain as to what is considered standard or what to look for in terms of bonus/commission structure. Any insight is appreciated!

I'm 40F. Any point to my being in this bowl? Not being facetious, just see a lot of chat here and in the WhatsApp group about how the people in their early 30s are old, so don't want to waste my or anyone else's time...

Is an IPO in anyone’s FIRE strategy? Maybe this is specific to the Bay Area, but it doesn’t seem that unrealistic to negotiate enough equity to make $1.5 mill off an IPO. Or maybe I’m dreaming 😂

I can't stop reading BLM news and checking covid counts everyday. It's gotten to the point where I'm struggling to do my work because why does it even matter? The US is a dumpster fire and people are too busy blaming the other side to actually fix anything or listen and learn.

Currently in a committed relationship and just came to the realization that I have actually never been single in my life. Sometimes I wonder what the single life is like.. just dating and doing whatever I want without having to think about a partner. Any one else ever felt like this? Or been in this situation?

Gents - What perfume/cologne brand do you wear?

Love to see Duke lose

Been with my GF since college and we recently hit the 4 year mark. 1-2 years into our relationship I found out she had instances of micro-cheating (flirting with guys, talking to ex’s etc - but nothing physical) and we addressed it. To her credit and my knowledge, she’s been apologetic and great at respecting boundaries since, but I still feel the pain from her actions years ago (and have talked to her about it). Feeling lost about whether to just leave or to try and work things out

AITA: My friend keeps asking me for financial advice. I set up a budget for her and have her concrete advice. And I field all of her investing questions. But still, she continues to be reckless with her money. She’s 42, single (no kids), and making $100k+ and is still living check to check.

I don’t want to waste my breathe on helping her since nothing seems to be getting through to her. AITA?

Chris Stapleton might be a cool guy. Maybe he has some good music. But every time I hear him sing “drive on” during a Ram commercial I want to punch him in the face. Ram has overplayed that one.

Hope everyone has a great Friday!

This is a VERY long story. Even skipping parts will take awhile, so I'll hit the important things first. If anyone wants the whole story lmk, I really am interested to see if its me over thinking or if I had just been groomed to believe her constant lies because I wanted it to work so badly. We've been dating more or less since early 2013. She is actually 12 years older than me but never looked it. Still to this day her inboxes are flooded with men trying to hit on her or to just say "Hi

I want the quarantine dry spell to be over.. 🤨🧟‍♀️

Big birthday coming up in a few months and wanting to do things I have never done before (tattoos, surgery, etc.) What have you done as a result of a mid life crisis?

Was on a call hungover and high today negotiating a $1.5M contract 😬

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.

I’m seriously considering eating dinner at 5:30pm. Does that mean I’m officially old??

I gained weight during my last relationship (probably around 30 lbs, and I’m 5’9”). Before my relationship, I felt like I could get any guy. But I’ve been single for 2 years now and it’s been so hard to date. I’m not sure if maybe I’ve lost confidence, but I legitimately don’t know how to get a guy to be interested. Any pointers?
