How on earth are you guys getting into these AMD calls for 5/1? The theta is scaring the devil out of me. I almost went with the peer pressure yesterday and then backed out (I am bullish in AMD)

Team is already talking about eating hours. My utilization is down cause I was in unassigned for a month in Dec/Jan. What's worse pissing off the partner or having a low utilization? -staff 1

My old employer asked me if I wanted to come back to the company as a manager. The pay will likely be much better and the position holds more responsibility than I’ve had before, so overall it would be a step up. The issue is I left the company because of an abusive manager who constantly put me down and made me feel like I wasn’t doing anything right. If I come back I’d be working under her again. I’m torn because the opportunity is great but the stress was awful. Continued in comments…

I think I’m about to get my first experience of getting in trouble with a partner for work that I actually already sent for review and followed up on multiple times (and brought up during calls). Stay tuned… 😑

Have a really good relationship with current company, but got an amazing offer and very likely gonna leave (signed the offer, waiting for all the background checks to come back). How do you tell your boss you are leaving the company (if boss is not a dick lol) and not ruin relationship?

My VP asked my fellow team member to take on a task simply because of her race to help them land a grant renewal. We’re both women of color but since I didn’t match the target audience I was not asked even though the task is on a project I am overseeing. We’re both offended with how this was handled by the VP, are we overreacting?

Got an offer at another agency before going into production (it’s a few weeks out) with my current agency. Can I leave without burning any bridges?

First year analyst here... my manager often asks me to buy coffee for her and never pays me back. What should I do?

Anyone deal with this before: I inherited a severely under developed team including a sr analyst who clearly was doing the bare minimum, if that. Over the last 6 months I have had to coach him and correct simple mistakes in his work and recently it got so bad that I told him he would receive a low rating in his evaluation. He lashed out, involved HR saying he doesn’t understand why, and now my review points out stuff that I would have let slide.

I’m dealing with a difficult management situation and don’t know what to do, how would you report someone when nobody really cares what’s going on or is automatically going to side with the other person?

For you introverts who aren't fond of socializing or "hanging out". Do you just dislike socializing at work or just dislike it in general? In my case it's the latter. How about you guys?

I’m kind of stuck what to do. The principal at my school is very intimidating, confrontational, and not pleasant to work for. I love teaching but feel like I have to walk on egg shells around him.

My Best friend is getting engaged coming Tuesday and my leave is not getting approved. My manager is on leave herself (Mngr got married two days ago, to her boss) and she is not approving my leave, saying you should go when I am not there... I absolutely want to attend the engagement function!
All my work for the upcoming week is already ready- I completed everything beforehand for this. Please suggest how I can manage the situation and attentd my friend's engagement :( Mngr bullies me I feel.

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

My MD won't stop saying "penetrate" in our meeting. Apparently I still have the humor of a 10-year-old

It’s 2020. Is a small dainty nose ring still perceived as unprofessional in the workplace? I work in the finance industry.

I know I’m leaving my company and I’m leaving them severely understaffed but I haven’t gotten the final offers for other companies...so do I give my current place a 3-4 week notice vs 2-week notice?

Any advice on how to deal with a partner/boss who is shifting all responsibility to me with zero guidance, no mentoring, and an unwillingness to discuss the issues? (Small firm, only associate under this partner and have been working at the firm for 2 years). There are an increasing number of passive aggressive comments from the partner who expects to be completely hands off once the case lands on my desk. Wants me to figure it all out despite cases being from different areas of law.

Linguistic question, should an associate say "my partner" when talking to a client about a partner? To me this comes off like implying your also a partner, but saying "our partner" sounds weird too...

Has anyone successfully transferred teams in the same agency? At a prior agency when my partner & I did, it was an “issue”. Trying to do something now but respect everyone. Ppl are just so protective.

What is your suggested approach at working with a socially misguided partner? Ignore/Let it slide? Throw it back?

Just curious: how much time would you bill for on prepping instructions to a FA for a response? Feel free to break down by how long you’ve been practicing, complexity, or any other factor you think is relevant.

There really is such a direct correlation between cringey title and cringey posts.

Before LinkedIn...to me, the king of professional cringey was Shingy. Do you guys remember him? He was aol's overpaid "digital prophet" and got paid to visit companies at lunchtime and babble the same kind of nonsense we now call "LinkedIn cringe".

This is a noob question. What do I do with this meme stock I purchased? I only invested a grand. Do I sell when it’s high and get out of it? Or hold on to it? I know nothing about trading.

Does anyone use the fidelity app? How can you change it out of dark mode? I can’t figure it out for the life of me.

only buy VIX if you think the market plumbing systems are clogged.

Otherwise your sinuses will become increasingly VIX allocated over time.

Maybe that's ok.

all of my puts are taking turns and sometimes all together in toying with my back hole but diamond hands 🤷🏻‍♂️

Playing some AAL $30 calls

Thoughts on CSIQ? It is sitting near all time highs but has not jumped like crazy from pre-pandemic. It’s at a 25% premium. It has solid fundamentals. It may be a solid option after it hits the 50 day SMA.

I know there are multiple posts about this but I still can’t think of the right way to play United Wholesale Mortgages. Too nervous to sell covered calls with the ex div date and high OI for calls in March. Anyone considered averaging down?
