Detained long-term is unlikely. Detained / inconvenienced for 3-4h... could happen, could also not. I’ve had friends with US citizenship get stopped at the border coming back from Canada, “randomly” searched (aka they are Muslim).

if your friend only has Iranian citizenship he or she won't be able to get a visa (Trump's travel ban), but if he is dual citizen and travels with his Canadian passport there won't be any issues

Hi, I am a single-parent with a 9 year old daughter. Is anyone else dealing with same gender sleepovers with sexual exploration occurring? Exploring as in my daughter says outright “I am going to kiss you,” to her bestie before bed. Then after 15 minutes of giggling in bed I go to tell them to be quiet and see my daughter’s bestie is showing her buttcheeks to my daughter. To top it off they start trying to tell me they are laughing because they are reading “belly laugh books for kids”. Help.

Seeking some advice for home buying. Went under contract on a new construction back in March, was originally supposed to be ready in August but has been delayed until November.

Debating if I should test my luck with the market to see if rates will drop or if I should go ahead and lock my rate in before Rates increase even more

Has anyone here successfully exited to pharma after 1-2 YOE? Currently an SA at a small NYC market access firm with a wide range of projects under my belt for big pharma clients. I'm anticipating a promotion to AC perhaps this fall or winter, but I'm at a crossroads where I'm not sure if I want to continue consulting to the actual consultant level. Currently make $100k with a 10% bonus, would I even get a higher salary in industry at this stage? Also might be worth noting I have an MPH. Thanks!
