Help! I have tall girl problems and I need some recommendations. I'm 5'11, 180lbs and I'm trying to find work clothes that don't hug my derriere and look too suggestive, or pants that won't make me look like I'm about to cross a river. Jacket sleeves aren't long enough and forget about skirts, when I walk they keep riding up so I have to always stick to loose ones and yearn to wear a pencil skirt.

Can you share playbook to engage a 3PL in your SC strategy? For any industry. TIA

Is it ok to discuss age at work? Do you tell people your age if they ask? I’ve had experiences in the past (non tech companies) where older coworkers change their perception of you if they find out you’re much younger than they are...If you have coworkers that ask about your age (especially around birthdays), what’s a good way to avoid telling them your age without coming off as rude?

What is the funniest and/or most awkward Zoom moment you’ve had at work?

I worked at LinkedIn and one of the senior leaders was sharing screen during a meeting. The conversation shifted but the leader didn’t stop sharing screen. This person navigated to Yahoo news and clicked on an article filled with women in bikinis. This individual spent a solid 2-3 mins on the article scrolling and stopping to look at each woman. Needless to say this leader was very distracted by other things on our call.

I live in a mid-size market. The community is not super diverse, but has been attracting more young people of color in recent years. Still, I’m one of two attorneys of color in my 120-attorney office. I’m really unhappy with the overall culture at my firm and I experience a lot of blatant sexism and covert racism. (Continued)

I hate when you ask senior associates a question regarding an assignment they’ve assigned and you receive attitude-reply to the email vaguely without even addressing the email (example: “just complete the assigned, don’t worry about that”). Especially when the question/issue being ask is an important part of the assignment. It almost feels like I’m a bother for asking even though the associate(when assigning) said “feel free to ask any questions you may have while working on the assigned tasks”

Any thoughts on how do we deal with an incompetent boss who you dont look up to and have no trust that you would ever get credit for the work you would do for him/her? Given that changing the boss is not an option.

My client is currently enroute to a compliance disaster that will likely have major repercussions in every area of law imaginable. They are completely ignoring my advice to not do what they’re thinking about doing. What should I do? Walk away? Get my opinion in writing? Fight until the end? I’m seriously worried for them.

When have you washed your hands of a junior? What was the last straw?

Manager (VP) mad that I didn’t include her on a call with other Legal VPs earlier this week, despite me not organizing the call. Then Manager gets mad when I ask her to confirm whether I should pass on work to another Legal VP/VP’s team because I should have just sent it over without asking my Manager. Is it just me or is my Manager just being difficult?

I think it's funny that I was told when I got my first big girl job, I'll be a catch and that there so many single men in cooperate. I've been working for a while now and everyone I meet is married. Is there I memo I missed?

So today my client manager came to know about my resignation, one month before NP ends

She said - hope it's a good move good luck

Is she being sarcastic ?

I’ve been working with a founder/small biz freelancing as their digital producer for a little bit. I’m having issues lately because they won’t give me a budget for content they want to make for their site/Instagram. I’m worried with the budget gate keeping that we’re going to burn bridges with contacts, especially now that we’re dipping into my personal contacts for content collaboration. Is this normal? How do I get them to give me a budget to work from?

I have a direct report who is smart, passionate about her job and can be really innovative. However she carries this enormous weight of responsibility, for needing to do everything, do it right, make sure it's perfect, not trusting colleagues to help. It creates dread and panic and overwhelming workload and a terrible attitude for her and I am speaking with her this week to start to shift her mindset. Any tips in navigating how to let go of this heavy idea of "responsibility"?

I need some advice on how to deal with a lot of big egos. I’m on a new business pitch and have several c-suite team members who are condescending and are taking credit for my work. (Cont’d)

Firings in current scenario shows it's important to have partner who earns almost same as you so that lifestyle can be maintained after one of them is fired.
Unfortunately in India, a guy earns3-4 times than his wife,
So if the guy is hired.. It causes whole lot lifestyle problems

The small firm I work for has a terrible turn over rate and I think it is in part due to the firm owner/managing attorney. He seems oblivious to this and always finds fault with the people who leave. Is there any good way to approach this with him or am I better off keeping my mouth shut? It’s affecting my work because I keep losing assistants and paralegals and then having to get new ones caught up.

I am definitely not gonna risk my career flirting with a coworker. Being fired or cancelled for that sorta thing would ruin not just my life but my family who I support. Lots of other fish in the sea over at competitor firm🧐

So… I am working on a project with outside consultants that wraps up this week. I’m feeling some kind of “vibe” with one of the male consultants and I am wondering how to figure out if I am imagining things or whether there is actually something there. He lives is another state and it doesn’t seem likely our paths will cross again.

Recently was given advanced notice that my colleague who is same level as me will be promoted and not me. Really believe I deserve that promotion since I pulled above my weight and delivered every time. I know it’s unprofessional but starting to feel bitter and even angry. How do I overcome this way of thinking?

Hi guys! I’m looking for a marketing specialist role, or entry level product marketing associate roles! I’d love to connect via LinkedIn and share my relevant experiences as I’ve been having trouble obtaining interviews in this current job market.

I was on PTO last week and had some follow up interviews for a role I was interested in.

The bad news is, I promptly forgot to send thank you notes! (Family PTO in Disney/Kennedy Space Center - so a bit crazed!). I am back in the office today and sent the notes... but, I am wondering how big an issue this could be.

Thoughts?

She’s got some dresses from MMLaFleur and Of Mercer and looking for some more. We’ve searched easily 50 sites (department stores, mall brands, etc) and have been striking out hard. Was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for smaller brands. Looking for anything basically <$500.
