Amazon Prime Now. I once landed in Chicago at 10p, had a client meeting at 8am the next morning and realized I forgot dress shoes. Amazon delivered a pair of black flats to my hotel in less than 2 hrs. Not a huge selection, but saved the day!

Target!

Walmart for the win. They are pretty hideous ballet flats, but they were 6 dollars and fingers crossed they last the week! Thanks for all the help fish!!!

Airport has a fabulous Johnston & Murphy with women’s clothes and shoes if it’s still open when you arrive. There are also a couple of other clothing stores there (maybe a Nine West?) that might be open when you land.

Target on the way from airport closes at 10pm if you land before then.

Downtown the boutiques on south side don’t open until 11am Monday.

Surprisingly, Target has some standard black/brown flats for less than $20. I've gone there in a pinch. Not sure how far away from downtown that is though.

Out of country friend who was visiting me in the states reimbursed me for his hotel/flights in crypto (~2k) which was sent to my wallet. I’m planning to withdraw to coinbase then to my bank but want to make sure I’m doing everything right. Do I need to declare anything or do something special? Would i need to pay taxes on the reimbursement? Usually when I get reimbursed with Venmo or PayPal it seems pretty straightforward but not as familiar with rules around crypto

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

Just jumped from 60K —> 110K after 2 years of being very underpaid although being considered a “top performer”.

If you’re on the fence about jumping to another firm or starting to look elsewhere, realize that loyalty is often only skin deep in consulting. Prioritize your career goals, whether they be financial otherwise. Praise and appreciation are nice, but don’t let ANYONE make you feel bad about choices you make for your happiness.
