How do I prevent and treat collar stains? I love how I look in a crisp white shirt but the maintenance is a b**ch.

Wash you shirts often? My collar stains are on the inside and are not visible externally

Following

Mine are on the inside as well. I just don't like the rings they form.

Grab some “Grease Lightning” off of Amazon. It’s a degreaser. I’ve used it successfully on my BB shirts, Turnbulls, and Bamboo cotton shirts.

Spray infected areas with Grease Lightning and rub in. Leave overnight. Put baking soda in the wash with detergent and throw in the cloths - wash as normal. Stains should be heavily reduced, if not completely gone.

IBM1: is this only for whites or will it work with any color?

Seems to work with any color, doesn’t seem to effect quality of material (that I can see YMMV)

Oxyclean spray on stain remover is the shiiiiiiiit. I don't think it's failed me once although I don't know how advanced your stains are

Is it realistic to want to do forensic accounting only to support criminal investigations? I'm passionate about the criminal side of things- investigating fraud, anti-money laundering, embezzlement, asset misappropriation, FCPA, etc. Is there enough work supporting this to justify a move into forensics or is this type of work only a small slice of forensic accounting?

Hey Gente, Im applying for jobs and I wanted to get others opinion on the race part of the application process. As an indigenous LatinX I worry that if I put indigenous it won’t tick the “diversity” box for the algorithm or recruiters. I work with (not in) the I&D dept at my company and our target recruiting groups don’t include or mention indigenous. Any recruiters here that have insight?

I studied computer science in school but I didn’t do well due to life coming in the way. I got poor grades but ultimately finished my degree without any internship experience.

After three months of job search, I started for 45K at a construction company as a Jr App Support. After a year I shifted in to QA for 65k and now after a year of QA, I have finally gotten a position as a software engineer for 78K base.

The imposter syndrome is finally gone!

My remit quadrupled+ in a recent re-org with no increase in pay/promotion, my new director is new to the company and was zero help, and I was passed over for recent promotion during the comp cycle. The new director essentially began shutting me down any time I ask for clarity in my career progression. Now they have taken credit for the project I’ve been building over the past year+ without giving me props whatsoever to higher ups. What is the best plan of action here?
