How do I figure out who to socialize/make friends with? I thought of myself as a charismatic guy but it's me and all these white guys and I just feel like I'm on the outside looking in. Should I just be looking outside the office?

Can anyone please help me understand what are the roles and responsibilities of a Principal Business Analyst and how is this role different from Senior Business Analyst? Also, would appreciate tips to crack the Principal Business Analyst interview. Thank you

Is there a good way for me to tell my friends I don’t want them to bring their dog over when they come to visit? When they first got him they said they were nervous to leave him as a puppy, but he’s about 2 now and they won’t leave him home alone unless another family member can watch him (which is rare). I just bought a new condo and spent a good amount of money redoing and furnishing it and I’m not thrilled about their dog jumping all over my furniture and having to clean dog hair for weeks.

Best of luck to everyone in their endeavors. Together we’ll all succeed!
