Hi everyone! What are some fun quarterly events y’all have done through your company’s LGBT group?

Guys can you help me understand this LTA reimbursement?

If I declare a certain LTA reimbursement, will it be reducing my inhand now? Or is it like during filing ITR next year if I show traveling bills I can get deductions in my total income tax?

My total fixed is 22,05,000. How much should I assign for my LTA reimbursement?

I've seen a few posts asking if others got the vaccine while pregnant. Has anyone decided NOT to get it and can share the rationale or info they looked at? Thank you!

My anxiety has been out of control lately. Accepted a new job offer and have been waiting on background checks/drug screens to clear and it’s taking a while to complete. I have no reason to think either would be an issue but my thoughts are running wild, and it’s physically and emotionally exhausting.

Moved to the DC area about two years ago and have yet to establish myself friendwise. I usually tag along with my partner to all of his events as I’m traveling 5 days a week and have no forum. Any...

I find myself whiling away most of my weekend on Grindr and other dating apps. >90% of the time is wasted and doesn't lead to anything. I know it's a black hole but I still keep going back. Off late, I've realized that more than anything else, I'm just lonely and don't have much else to do. I go there craving sort of connection and human interaction. In my late 20s - don't have too many friends. The ones I do are also busy pairing off and settling down. Anybody else in the same boat?

Is it… uh homophobic of me to hate James Charles? Every time I see him I cringe but not sure if it’s the self-hate acting on my behalf.

How was everyone’s Pride? I’m still struggling recovering from it…!

I’m worried that my voice, communication style, and body language comes across as too effeminate for our straight clients and peers. I’m transitioning to sales now and am insecure that my personality and appearance may hinder sales gen? Client industry is very old school. Can LGBT partners//Ds/MDs chime in how they managed the same transition?

I really want to have a group of gay friends to hang out with. How did you find your current group? Any advice for someone who’s new to the city?

Does your company have a LGBTQ erg? My company just have a D&I group and they are expected to do everything. I am thinking of proposing erg groups. What are the pros and cons of having different erg groups. For me personally, I have found it harder to connect with people in the current structure.

I’m 25/F, recently came out to my mother as gay and she was not receptive. I decided to send a message to my father and sisters to tell them next, and got crickets. I have a wonderful girlfriend and was so excited to share it with them, and it hurts to not have their support. I feel lucky that I have wonderful friends who do support me though. Anyone have any advice for how I’m feeling now? 🥺♥️ At the very least, I’m proud of myself for coming out and being me. Just lonelier than I imagined.

Best states for adoption if you're in a same-sex marriage?

I have a 5 day weekend for thanksgiving. I don’t have any plans. BF of 7 months is unable to spend even part of it with me due to family obligations. Is this a red flag?

Is my bar too high in this day and age if I want guys to at least ask me out in person instead of reaching out on social media having never met me in person before? I just like when you have the guts to approach me in person instead of hiding behind a keyboard, or start with wanting to get to know me and not coming on too strong if we've never met.

I empathize that it's more comfortable for us to hide behind our keyboards, but I also like a guy with guts and conviction.
