What’s the consensus on tattoos in the insurance workplace? I’m in leadership and considering exploring my options due to recent personnel changes. I work remote and have arm sleeves, and any time I would be in-person I’d of course wear a long sleeve shirt to be professional, but worry about a cuff rolling up and tattoos being somewhat visible. Nothing is offensive by any means.

Anyone else required to put together completely unrealistic timelines?

Upper management's direction is to put together the most aggressive deadlines we can. If we think a project will take 16 months, make the plan for 10 months then there's a chance we may launch in 13 months.

I understand that time to market is important in consumer product goods, but being constantly behind schedule and rushing everything is terrible for the team's morale.

Current HHI of ~$650k in the USA (north east, HCOL area, early to mid 30s, DINK). Future career prospects seem safe and steady but nothing exciting (work at large companies, H1B struggle etc). Opportunity for us to move back to India and have jobs that can provide ~$250k with likely more future potential (with some additional risk). What would you do, fam? Help me think through!

I’m not sure if I’m overthinking this but I (25M) have a feeling a friend(23F) is hitting on me. Whenever we hang out she’ll get really close and keep touching/poking me whenever we need to turn corners, cross the block, etc because she’s the navigator. When we sit next to each other on the bench she’ll be up on my personal space up. Just a lot of shoulder to shoulder touching. I had other female friends this touchy as well but I wouldn’t think anything of it because some people are touchier 1/2

Why use a legal recruiter vs. searching on your own, and vice verse?

After interviewing multiple candidates and selecting a candidate to offer the position, do law firms typically keep backup candidates incase their number one choice falls through?

I don’t know who needs to hear this but: you are doing AMAZING....hang in there...everything will be okay...you are a worthy human being who is so much more than their job! Breath. Life is so short.

I am in a small-medium sized firm. Is a $50 gift card appropriate for the administrative assistant? She is not “my” assistant but helps everyone in the firm for timekeeping etc.

My firm recently updated the Intapp Time app and it seems to be capturing my time more aggressively than the previous version. E.g., Composed email to X, edited doc Y, viewed email from recruiter Z? Yo!! How do I shut the damn thing off? Stuff is creepy to me. No doubt Big brother's watching.

Due to Covid, I was let go from my firm after only a few months of working there. I’ve since been rehired in the last few months. This is a new area of law for me and I’m not enjoying it at all. How soon could I think about leaving? I’m going into my fourth year and don’t want to get pigeonholed.

However most firms or companies want someone with specific experience. Anything helps. Thank you.
