Has anyone here ever had to deal with working for a nightmare partner? One of the two partners at our small firm is the WORST. He makes racist jokes, inappropriate comments about clients, and makes me generally uncomfortable. His wife is our HR department, so I can't go there. Any advice?

He owns the place so all you can do is get out. And maybe be honest about why after you’ve got another job lined up.

Honestly, if the boss is the owner and wife is HR there’s no point in telling them. Just leave, and if anyone ever asks you what you thought about working there - then you can be honest

You can’t and won’t change anything if you speak up. All you can do is finding another job.

Yeah I've been there. It's so hard to deal with when it's a small place. I eventually ended up quitting on the spot.

Analyst-level. Have to renege an offer I signed. @Partners would you prefer a candidate calls, sets a call up, or just leaves an email about it? I know it’s already bad but want to be as respectful as possible. Feels extra bad as had partner spend 45 mins answering Q&A and selling me earlier.

If my boyfriend pays me fair market value rent every month, can I claim this rental income and therefore take advantage of rental expense deductions and depreciation? If so, would expenses and repairs that apply to the home be counted at 50%? I started the construction for a rental dwelling in 2020 that will be on the same property, but won’t have paying renters until later this year. I’m hoping that by claiming his rental income for 2020 then I would also be able to capture those expenses.

Newly in-house. Apparently, it was bad to offer my opinion that slightly differed from the managers, even though I was invited by said manager to review their suggestion with an internal client. We collectively discussed how to make a document better. I responded to an email that said "hey you and internal client - could you both see my suggestions (which differed from the clients). Internal client didn't really agree, so I said "can we add managers edits but keep some of clients edits"
