Hey American Airlines frequent fliers. I need 3000 more miles to book a flight. Anybody willing to sell some miles for cheap?

FINALLY saved up enough for a Leica kit - I was very excited for the CL - but the shop suggested the Q2 as a really great travel camera, and now I’m not sure what to get. Anyone here shoot Leica?

For those who have started traveling again... I recently started flying for work and am noticing increased discrimination on Delta Airlines. As a brown person have experienced that in the past, but lately it’s blatant. I’m a diamond and a million miler however, I see more and more out of turn upgrades. Have you experienced and what dis you do about it?

Been struggling lately

I find myself questioning basic politeness I’ve learned since a child. Wondering what everyone else thinks. I work with an associate. She’s great. When she does good work or something I’ve asked her to do, I, of course, say “thank you!” I don’t really expect a response. She always replies “you’re welcome!” Or some variation. And for some reason, that’s awkward. Is it just me? I know in normal manners, that is the right response. Why does it sit funny?

I’ve been with firms for 6 years. I struggle (not that I’m not intellectually capable of doing this job), I just hate the detail oriented nature of this industry. Everything gets scrutinized so carefully and most things I stayed up late for doesn’t matter.

I just got PIP talk and they are pushing me out next year. I’m kinda relieved. I want to leave law completely and be someone on the operation side. Eventually I want to be an COO.

How do I get there from here?

Well, I’m so busy and anxious that I’m not able to eat during the day, but on the plus side I have abs for the first time since I was 18

Hello Sharks,

Can you please help me decide for the profile of senior software engineer between:

2. Virtusa - 25lpa Fixed (Intuit client)

YOE : 5
Tech Stack: Python
I am a bit biased towards joining CGI but on the other side, Virtusa is offering more.
My preference would be good WLB & Job security.

Thanks in advance :)

Do you get to enjoy the travel part of consulting? What are some details on flex programs some consultancies offer? I heard some firms let you fly out SOs instead of a trip back home as long as the costs are the same.

Asking because one piece of consulting I am interested in is the travel opportunities.

Thank you!

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
