Holidays around the corner and trying to figure out how not to overeat. Any tips? Lots of wholesalers come thru and I’m like the Cookie Monster. Cookieee!!! 😂 Sweet clients drop off cookies, fruit, nuts etc. I’m doomed!

Stop worrying about it and enjoy the cookies and holiday food. You can't make a New Year's Resolution to lose weight if you don't have any extra weight to lose. Happy snacking.

If I gave you $5,000 right now (without conditions), what is the first thing you would use it for?

I do like to have something and then pair it with something ‘better’. I’ll have my cookies and sweet treats, and pair that with a bunch of berries, for example. I get to indulge, but not turn around and be hungry and 5 minutes (seconds sometimes!) later.

That is valid too! No better time to enjoy when all the good things are out. 😂

I’m not that over weight lol

You can just eat one of each and share the rest with your colleagues. That's what we do. A client once gifted a tin with 15 pounds of chocolate candy. Also get your cardio in if you want to make up for some of this overeating

smart

Smart idea.

Currently going through the hiring process for a role in San Francisco. They told me the starting base was $110K, but this sounds like pennies in a city like San Francisco! I am concerned that if I make it through I’ll basically be poor in such an expensive city, not to mention the taxes. I also have a baby so child care I am sure is expensive. Not sure if it would make sense. Advice?

Hi fishes, my previous employer has not given me the money for Earned Leaves, they are saying it's not in their policy.. I have a variable bonus of 100000. Out of this they have given only 19,000 in the month of December after 6 months of joining...But they are not giving me any bonus after completing 1 year and 2 months.. They have stopped my appraisal as well...

So in total, I lost my appraisal money, bonus and Earned Leaves money... I feel betrayed and cheated...

Hey, so I was offered a CDP position as an analyst in Accenture starting this fall, but today I just found out I got the Fulbright scholarship to be an ETA in Thailand for a year. It’s an honor of course, and I’m thinking about asking my recruiter if I could delay my Accenture start date for a year. Would it be worth it to do so? Is it even possible?
