“Honestly, I only came in today for the free bagels.” is the realest thing I've heard in a while. We work hybrid, so most of us are able to pick the 2-3 days we can come in, and I love that sometimes free food is a big enough motivator for someone to work out of the office. :D

If I worked in NY or NJ I’d jump at free bagels in a heartbeat. But I’m in TX, so no thanks! Texmex and BBQ definitely, but not bagels or pizza! 😂

How come we don't have any free bagels in our office? Really sounds like we're missing out!

Hi All,
I am feeling lost in job. So I’ve applied for Accounts payable they offered 40k. I said why not to gain some experience. I didn’t even bother negotiating which I regret.
Fast forward I noticed that I was eventually handed everyone’s workload (AR & imports & duty and check coworker work + AP) Spoke to them about pay increase based on workload. So they raised it to 55k.. but I still feel underpaid based on the amt of work I do. I don’t know what my title or what to put on resume..

This is twice now in back to back weeks my boss has asked me where the disconnect was in our communications because I didn’t deliver on what “was asked”, even though I know damn well what was asked and what was done were the same thing. I’m not sure if he’s changing the meaning or isn’t communicating what he’s envisioning or what but it’s embarrassing to be called out like that, and to have people think you’re the dumb 23 year old.
