Hi Everyone,
Any recommendations for a luxury work tote, which fits a laptop as well? Something like this gucci tote. Also, would this green stripe be considered unprofessional?

Honestly, you’re an adult who gets her work done. This bag is perfectly acceptable to carry around. Even if it were hot pink, it would be acceptable. Personally tired of a lot of these professional norms set by white males dominating our ability to be our authentic, fabulous, brilliant, fashionable, and creative selves. /endrant

Over the years, I’ve leaned into being myself at work, including wearing fabulously bright clothing, and I’ve found that there’s not as many critical people as one might expect. Also, it’s helped a lot of my younger colleagues (esp female) embrace their own style of leadership and be empowered to express themselves. Someone is waiting for you to be their role model, OP! 🙌🏼

I could use some advice on this situation. I’ve been working for a small family owned business in Toronto Canada for about 4months. I’ve noticed a lot of unprofessional behaviour since I’ve started (yelling at workers infront of customers) I’ve bounced around different positions so much that the owner blames 98% of stuff on me when something isn’t done, even if it’s not my responsibility anymore.A week ago I asked for an employment contract to get this straight but nothing yet. What do I do?

Scenario, interviewing a candidate that has great experience for the role however candidate has a lot of tattoos. Nothing crazy or derogatory, would you pass on him/her? Not a customer service job either. Specially manufacturing…. Have you ever passed on a candidate because of tattoos?

I have a partner who routinely ignores emails or responds to them several weeks later. He has to approve every single document sent to the client or the court, which means you have a physically go to his office to ask him to review something. Half of the time you go to meet with him in person, he’s either on a call or otherwise busy. I find that this basically creates more work and makes meeting deadlines extremely difficult. Is this normal?

Does anyone own an LV Capucines? My heart has been set on that for a while now but I see it’s prices keep going up, up, up!

Also are there other LV bags that do not have the visible LV prints?
