This is late in the game, but it can be a pretty good work environment as long as you have coverage. There are different types of AA's and by this I mean there's the service desk, and the tasks that land there are of those who don't have enough coverage to have an AA of their own. But if you're going to be someone or a bunch of people's designated AA, it can be a little tough at first to acclimate because you charge to projects for the most part, rather thab overhead. Its an odd thing to walk into, but also not the worst. I'd rely on colleagues for questions - we all have something different to offer in terms of advice! And at least in my experience, everyone is super nice :)

At the last interview, at the end I was told the job was for management but I prepared for a different kind of interview. I am waiting for an offer or rejection letter. I feel peeved that they wasted my time. Red flags?

How do you manage your money?

I only bring in a little over $2,600 a month. After paying all my expenses, I get to put away $500 a month in savings but don’t have much wiggle room for anything else, including going out money.

I’m very privileged to have a significant inheritance and zero debt of any kind. I really wonder how my peers who have student loans, car payments, and even children manage to pay their bills and live so comfortably. Please share if this is you!
