No! You're welcome.

That sytle is no longer worth it for met but if you can ask for a ridiculous amount of money and bank it, then maybe it's for it for a year? I obviously dont know your financial situation but I'm pretty sure we've all prostituted ourselves for less.

Hi everyone! I’d like to create a simple graphic of our HR operational calendar for my client group. A visually appealing infographic that outlines our annual talent cycles (talent planning, performance reviews, promotion nominations, merit, etc) so leadership always knows what’s coming and can better prepare and strategize. Any ideas on how I can best visually represent this? Any tools, programs or templates you recommend? Thanks!

Just in case you were wondering, Tinder is still pretty much exactly as you remember it.

After 48 hours on the site, I’ve had five matches; four of them I unmatched with because I knew it wouldn’t ever work so why waste anyone’s time, and the fifth unmatched me after I mentioned them being a spam bot (or whatever drives the fake accounts these days).

The handful of women’s that could be a great fit, of course haven’t matched, because I’m sure 99,999 other guys also felt the same way.
