this is an interesting question and still remains to be seen.

I know my school has at least 4 port of entry students. We probably have over a hundred easily. I’m not sure if they had been in a detention center and are just now registering or if they just arrived to US over the summer.

I am so happy I get to loop with my students (except my5th graders who are off the Middle School), especially with my beginner English speakers. At least I’ll be a familiar face during these weird times. Can’t wait to see them virtually!

Hi fishes,

This annual appraisal I have got a good % of appraisal increment on my salary but I was not promoted to a senior developer (although I have been mentoring a junior dev in my team and been part of building the project by implementing new technologies and tweaks) and my total YoE is 3.5+ years. What could be the reasons? What should I do now?

Thanks in advance!!

How do you deal with the following - 1) lack of general organization in life, note taking, keeping track of your relationships and 2) attention to detail. These 2 things have been bothering me a lot. We all are smart as hell but silly mistakes such as spelling mistakes, broader checks to be done on the deck is killing me. Also I feel the lack of organization in personal life blows into professional as well. If you are a consultant how do u deal with it ?
