How do you tell if your managing partner is invested in your success? I feel like my managing partner couldn’t care less about my development, career, or success.

I am not in a position to leave due to past short stints, and things are not horrible, just want to tackle this feeling of abandonment.

Am I the only one that feels like we should have our student loans forgiven? (And I used to be adamantly opposed to ANY student loan forgiveness)
Our salaries continue to DECREASE as cost of living increases (not just “no raises”…decrease!…I realize I’m preaching to the choir haha). I can barely (and by “barely” I mean “can’t” TBH) make bills, pay for kids activities, etc (also a single mom of 3, for more context) LET ALONE pay my loans…
How do we start that movement?…
Who’s with me?! 🤷🏻‍♀️😜

Anybody in the same boat?

I'm currently on implied status in Canada (applied for an extension before the expiration date on my OWP), but lost my job two months ago.
