I am an elementary school teacher. My oldest son is feeling drawn to ECE. He loves children, loves to help in vacation bible school, wants to work directly with people to help them. Thoughts?

So holiday party this week and then fire a bunch of people? Good going.

My school has seen combinations of f2f, hybrid, and remote teaching/learning throughout the first half of the school year. After the MLK holiday, our district is returning to traditional f2f teaching 100%. I have 4 band classes (1 beginning, 2 intermediate, & 1 advanced), and as far as content pacing is concerned, we’re 1 9-week grading period behind. Is it a far fetched goal to get my students where they need to be by the end of the school year? How would you handle a situation like this?

What companies offer amazing employee benefits? I just started looking for a remote recruiter role. I have tried applying for companies like Google, Meta, Microsoft, but have not had any luck. I am wondering if there are any smaller companies that I may not know about, have great benefits and less competitive to get into. For example, I know UK companies have great PTO benefits, and I know of some companies that pay 100% of their employees benefits. TIA

What fun holiday things for adults :) are good to do in north Phoenix Scottsdale area ?

Anyone taking time off to spend time with family this week? I have the rest of the week off, and I'm heading to my mother's house tomorrow to help get things started. What's your favorite Black holiday tradition? Our family takes a shot together before we have Thanksgiving dinner 🤣.

Folks, if you’re looking for a whiskey “holiday cocktail” and visit Costco, they have Reed’s Cranberry Ginger Ale.

Mixed with Regular Makers mark, lime, and garnished with a mint leaf and luxardo cherry, and it was👌

Got an offer from another big4 on Thurs. Scheduled a call with MD on Fri bcoz the next Mon was my planned PTO. MD had an idea what it was about but didn’t wanna join. Sent text msg so that we could talk on the phone(since this is the MD’s preferred way of communication) No response. I came back from PTO the next Thurs and pinged the MD right away to talk and was ghosted. turned in my notice on Friday. MD then scheduled a call with me on my last day with the firm. Thoughts on this MD’s behavior?

Are there any fun holiday pop-up bars this weekend? I would love a reason to wear my ugly sweater!!

What's the best way to redeem Delta Skymiles for intl. vacation?

Generalization for discussion: “Why is it so frowned upon to take holidays/PTO in the US?”

Is it selfish that I'm considering a personal vacation over seeing family for the holidays? My parents and siblings are all healthy and happy and I saw them at Thanksgiving, and this is my first single Christmas. I'd really rather book a flight to somewhere warm from Christmas Eve-New Years and spend the holiday on a beach with a book. Should I just suck it up and take a vacay in the spring?

What are you doing for holiday gifting?

I may be reading too much into this so tell me if you think so. I'm the only woman on a product management team for a smallish company. We're having a holiday party next Tuesday night, and my boss randomly asked me if I could bring some festive stuff to spruce up the venue. Flowers, lights, etc. It's not a big deal, but I am a little miffed that it was delegated to me since I am the only woman on the team. I'm not an assistant!

Does anyone know if the firm pays out unused PTO upon departure?

How are the benefits at Havas? Maternity leave, vacation etc?

Looking for feedback. What are your thoughts on when asked to provide a case study or project plan as a part of the interview process? I know BCD Travel and other start-ups make these kinds of request.

Hello Folks,

Thanks for reading the post.

Got an offer that’s slightly lower than I’d hoped, the company asked me for a bonus number that would work for me. How do I decide so I don’t leave $ on the table but still realistic? Base is $150k.

I work in a small office of a national firm. The people in my office are on the opposite end of politics than I am (usually totally fine). HOWEVER, recently there have been loud discussions in hallways regarding current political issues that have been less about the law of it all and more about people’s personal opinions. There’s a lot of recreational talk about guns and “conservative values” and “liberal nutjobs” that make me very uncomfortable. ignore or say something to someone?

I am an hourly employee. Currently if there is a hospital call that needs to be done, someone will volunteer to do it for overtime. Now, my company wants to create a set call schedule. If we get a call at 5pm, when my shift ends, can I still be required to complete the call? I will be paid overtime but don’t like the fact they will force it upon us.

When shall we get some upward relief

How is the practice’s utilization below plan? Is it just so in realistic?

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

Hi! I taught State-funded PreK in Georgia for 4 years and I am now on my 2nd year of Kinder. I also taught at a private preschool for 4 years before becoming full time in college. Love birth to 5!

I’m Kim E. I work in public school grant funded preschool for 4 year olds in Michigan, and I also own a private preschool program for 3 and 4 year olds. This is my 18th year teaching.

I burst into tears Friday as I said goodbye to the best TA ever! She is now a kindergarten teacher in another district. It took me an hour to get over it and I know the other teachers and admin thought I was crazy. Change happens. But when there are no subs available and no one has an answer for Monday….what will I do? 18 students are 10 to many for me to teach by myself. And when I ask, they say there is someone, just not sure when the sub can start. Thanks for letting me vent!

I have a para/assistant teacher that just wants to argue over everything. “You’re the teacher, why do I have to assess the children during break out rooms?” We have 8 kids, and I am only asking her to do 3! The other para is doing 3 and I and doing 2 with IEPs!!! How am I supposed to handle this in a professional manner virtually? Plus she is frustrated b/c o can’t explain everything. I keep telling her it’s all new to me too. Grace is not a word in her vocab. And I am feeling graceless.

I’m Elizabeth and I’m in Las Vegas. I’ve been teaching ECSE for 14 years and it’s my 18th year teaching (i taught resource for 4 years). I love my littles! Who has taught the toddler crowd?
