Hi All,

Was just told to "grow our ESG/CSR" practice at a regional consulting firm, due to my recent grad certification in sustainable biz strategy. Wondering where I should focus us as a services industry for big impact: we have a large product innovation, digital engineering area, and know in the past we've had a lot of lip service to clients and only recorded ESG for their compliance.

Hoping to make a big difference and include CSR/Sust audits and projects beyond for our clients! Any tips?

My H1B is in RFE status since my educational degree is in electrical and electronics engineering and I am working as software engineer, any idea on what documentation that they might expect to get approve it

Luggage delay claim question

I used Chase explorer to buy tickets for my vacation and luggages were delayed for a month. Per chase term I am entitled $100 a day for 3 days. But the claim agency chase used has been asking for airlines response, which has not came (2month+ now). I am concerned insurance will use this as an excuse to never compensate. Is there a good way to handle this situation?
TIA

Hi everyone! I’m considering getting Invisalign treatment after noticing that my bottom teeth have started to bunch up/get wonky over the past 2-3 years. It’s something that is starting to bother me and I’m becoming more self-conscious and insecure about it...

My dentist said I qualified for Invisalign and it would cost £3,000 in total. What have your experiences been with Invisalign? Is it worth it? How inconvenient did you find the process? Any thoughts welcome!
