How did you decide at what age you wanted kids? I thought I wanted them at 28, but I’ll be 28 in about a year and don’t feel I’ve lived enough yet to have kids... but I also don’t want to wait until say, 35, either.

What kind of pay one can expect from Media Monks?

Hey guys! Anyone interested in joining a September virtual happy hour?

Hi,
I have a 1.4 year working experience and work as Junior Associate - Technology.

In this 1 year I have been working in Adobe Analytics.

I want to know what is the pay range for this?

I watched a good amount of Fox News last nite just to understand their angle on the happenings. We are indeed in a dilemma when media outlets can look at a red canvas and some call it yellow, some call it green, some call it red and some can’t distinguish any color at all. How are going to get anywhere if everyone chooses what they can or want to see?

Any good books for someone trying to understand the business side of marketing? Just got my review an they're asking I bring more of that MBA mindset to projects I'm on.

Hi, I am moving from USA to Canada very soon, on PR. I had a question about moving my stuff. I don’t have any furniture but do have basic kitchen stuff and clothes/shoes etc. What would be the cheapest way of getting these to Canada? Hearing mixed opinions on UPS... I was originally planning on just bringing everything with me and paying for extra baggage but since I am traveling solo, I’m not sure if I will be able to handle all the bags myself.

Any Roland Berger peep that’s open for referring me for a junior consultant position in UAE. Would really appreciate it!

Has anyone gotten a closed nose rhinoplasty? Any advice or comments on how it went for you? How is recovery and how did you feel after?

Hi Fishes, Can someone refer me for an open job position in American Express?

Kindly DM.

Are there that many fewer full time creative spots out there in NYC? Or is it just there aren’t any for me?

I hate turning down any kind of request even when I'm up to my eyeballs with work. How do you all politely and effectively turn down tasks?

Should I negotiate a severance package even though it’s not in my contract and it’s not required by UK law?

Hi 🐠, It's been 2.5 years since l joined Deloitte and I want to move to a new job soon. I haven't started applying yet but will. I have a question. The green card process deadline is tomorrow and Im not sure if should initiate that or not. My H1B started last October so I still have time but I don't want to be stuck here for the entire duration of green card process. So my question is, after starting the process when can I move to a different firm? Will documentation resume in new firm?

Question on to-do lists (and time management I guess)! I have a never ending to-do list on my phone for things related to household and kids. Some are “urgent” - kid needs a backpack for school; kid needs gear for soccer; schedule doctor’s appts. Those things get done. Things that I can plan ahead for - birthday presents, Halloween costumes - those get done as early as I can. But all the non-urgent things (and these are things I DO want enough to not just delete them and move on)…(cont.)

NY Governor Andrew Cuomo just dropped that they hired McKinsey & Co. Good stuff!

My contract is up mid Dec right before I travel out of the country for 3 weeks. Is it a good idea to reach out now about new opportunities, or should I wait until I’m back?

Does EY offer a severance package? If so, what's included in it?

Has anyone utilized the social cryopreservation benefit at Deloitte? Want to confirm how expenses were reimbursed.
(1-800 deloitte was completely unhelpful and ignorant about the program)

Any ladies dealt with a stinky trash bin that just won’t stop stinking? Have googled all the cleaning tips (soak cotton balls in essential oils and stuff in rim, clean out whole bin with baking soda, put baking soda at the bottom before you add the bag, spray it with febreze/other fragrance, etc.). Like I deep cleaned the bin, took out my trash, and threw no bloody/raw/stinky food products. 2 days later, already smelled just as bad as before. I even lit a candle today, smell broke through 😡

Am I the only one who gets super annoyed when guys on dating apps call me babe or other pet names when we haven’t even met? I’m genuinely curious if I am just a grump!

i’m part of a mom group and someone posted about finding thier spouse cheating on them. another fellow mom of this group commented for them for fight for thier marriage because she was in a similar situation and let go too easily and had to raise 2 kids on her own. thoughts ?

Going to NY next weekend for my best friend’s 31st birthday. Any suggestions for things to do? The goal is to relax (spas?) and eat good food at cute places. Nothing really crazy but want to make it enjoyable and memorable

This isn’t work related but hoping to get some recommendations around DMV. My boyfriend was just staffed to stand up a project in Woodbridge, VA and will not be able to fly home for thanksgiving. I’d like to plan a trip for my daughter and I to bring thanksgiving to him. Any places on the water or hidden gems to stay or see nearby? I’m hoping to book a place with a kitchen, so it’s been making the search a little tough! Any tips to make this special for him is welcome! Thanks ladies!

How do you create structure in your life? I’m experiencing a lot of distractions, which after much self reflection and introspection I’ve discovered are mostly from all the stuff going on in my head. I need structure and strategies to achieve things. What has helped you in the past to stick to routines?

Dear women in leadership:

Have you ever experienced passive aggressive responses to your role in leadership? If so, how do you handle the micro-aggressions?

For example, I’ve experienced people:
- asking me “do you understand?” though my experience is more senior
- deferring to the male in the room for decisions though I am the senior lead
- not responding to my requests unless I copy other leaders (who are usually male)

What micro-aggressions have you have experienced?

How do you get your male SO in the mood? Mine expects me to flirt (definition of what that means to him is unknown) otherwise we don’t have sex. He doesn’t initiate (start fooling around). It’s all up to me and it’s frustrating because if I don’t do anything we don’t have sex and he is constantly complaining that we don’t.

I have been actively looking for a new job for some time. A male friend offered to refer me to McKinsey but hasn’t and I feel like I’m annoying him.

Are there any female 🐠 willing to refer? I feel more comfortable asking in this group.

Talked with spouse tonight about finally merging finances and having a shared bank account. He said he would never open a bank account with a woman who doesn’t share his last name. He has always resented me for not taking it. I intended to when we dated but changed my mind about it early in the marriage. I’m feeling manipulated. How would you handle this? We don’t need to share but it feels like he’s being really awful about it.

Ladies with a darker complexion, have you had any complications with getting laser hair removal? Interested in getting 6 sessions for my legs. For reference, I’m 430 in Fenty Beauty foundation!

Ladies I am ready to slim down, especially this belly. I know you can’t spot reduce and I know it’s 80% diet. What worked you guys? I’m tired of looking like an Oompa Loompa

All my friends are super interesting, outspoken women. I find that I feel very ugly/boring by comparison. My opinions change easily and I don’t have a very charismatic personality. I tend to listen way more than I talk. Is there a way to practice and become charismatic/interesting?

Does anyone else get regular yeast infections or BV? I’ve been getting it on a monthly basis for a year, and the OBGYN has been telling me it all looks dry. Anyone have any recs? :(

Need some advice! I’ve been in a serious relationship for a year. I grew up in a traditional south Asian family where no one discussed relationships. My older sister never introduced any of her boyfriends when she dated them either. But when my parent got divorced, my mom became way more open minded about things. So I want to tell her about my boyfriend. I’m still kind of nervous though. Anyone gone through something similar/any tips to navigate the conversation? Going to see her later today.

My SO said this morning: “I want to propose 2 Cs to you” and my heart STOPPED. Turns out, he wanted to give me “cuddles and c***.” Very cute but also 😭😭😂

Do you believe in astrology? If so, what made you believe?

I love it when the uber woman tries to set me up with her son😂
