any crossfitters here ?

I love the idea of crossfit...but I have a bad shoulder from years of swimming so I wonder if it’s a good idea...

I have my frozen embryo transfer next month. I just got my “schedule”. Coming in day 2 and day 12, again day16 and a few other days here and there. All I could think about was how in the world am I...

Anyone fly Delta recently to enter the US from abroad? How smooth was the process of showing the negative covid test result & boarding?

As we head into winter and the holiday season, remember that the dark and cold can really take a toll on your physical and mental health. Take care of yourselves so you can take care of others! What's your best winter self-care tip for those in healthcare?

For the life of me, I do not understand why when I tell people that I’m Nigerian, they mention some irrelevant detail about a trip they took to Kenya or a friend they know from Angola. Ma’am/sir, if you told me you were from the USA and I mentioned that I have a friend in Canada, wouldn’t you think I was unwell?? 😂

Need some motivation! I want to start jogging, finding it difficult to start motivation. Currently in a very bad shape because of big life changes in last one year!

Has anyone used the dependent day care reimbursement account from EY?

My bf left immediately after the gym for a family “emergency” that lasted all day. Turns out he just ran errands for them because they’re traveling out of town tomorrow. It didn’t sound like anything the family couldn’t have taken care of. I’m slightly annoyed because I cancelled on dinner with friends to spend time with him (he hates my friends so I’ve been spending less time to avoid issues)… idk why I feel annoyed

Morning! So I am in the process of an IUI. I started letrozole Wednesday and have to go back next Wednesday for blood work and ultra sound. I was so excited that I forgot I had booked a trip for a family event for 4th of July. I am leaving on the 28th and won’t be back till the 5th. Did I just screw myself over? I’m waiting for the nurse to call me back but I’m so anxious figured I’d ask here!

Hi everyone, I'm not sure if this the right avenue to post this question. Does anyone have experience with Provera? My Gynie prescribed the tablet with 3 refills. Is there a more natural method to indice the period.
History: I was on Mirena IUD 2 x for 10 yrs. Depot for 1.5 yrs before this and then Alesse 21 + 28 and the patch. I am 35 yr old. I had a miscarriage at 20. I don't believe my Gynie advocates for me as his (yes HE). I always feel like he is in a rush. 1|2

Are there any studies on the outcomes of IVF babies ? We heard from our doctor that they pick the best eggs and the best sperms then implant the blastocysts that show the best growth - I was curious if those advantages continue on after birth.

I just got a new job offer for a new company. I haven’t disclosed my pregnancy - I worked really hard for it and didn’t want to risk it - when should I tell them? I’m 15 weeks.

Just starting third trimester and my nausea has come back (vomiting multiple times in recent days) - has that happened to anyone else around this time? Normal for 3rd tri?

I need to divorce my barber. Is anyone in NYC that can recommend someone? I prefer a scissor cut and would like to not break the bank. Around $60 is my upper limit. Willing to go to Brooklyn or Hoboken/Jersey City (not limited to Manhattan).

Does anyone know the likelihood of successfully negotiating with Lyft’s insurance? A friend was injured in GA when a Lyft driver hit his car (his Tesla recorded the whole thing) and Lyft is pushing him to accept a pain and suffering payout. He was injured, but not seriously enough for a hospital stay. His Tesla was totaled. Not my practice area so any insight is appreciated!

I’ve had pretty horrible acne most of my life but now I finally have it under control and wanted to get a laser treatment for the scarring. Anyone gotten it before and what kind did you get and how was your experience?

Has anyone had a D&E? 21 weeks pregnant and after meeting with several specialists the verdict is that we need to terminate for medical reasons 😞. Aside from the obvious emotional devastation, I am trying to figure out what to expect physically?

Confession: got “fat” during COVID and getting back to me now. Appreciate what it means now. 🤷‍♂️

If working out after work (9 to 5), would you recommend eating dinner first and working out later or working out first and eating dinner after?

What is your take on the PROSCI certification (on the company's dime of course)?

platinum AA on segments for the year. Week 34 on the calendar year. 30 weeks at the same place. Brutal way to do it...but it's done

Isn't today supposed to be payday for us? 😳🤔

Can someone tell about Ayurvedic treatments in Delhi ncr for cancer to complement chemotherapy

In negotiation for a Manager Role for BNY Mellon (grade K). Looking for some guidance on how hard I can push the issue with increasing my offer.
My convo with the HR recruiter was that he would push for $130k plus a sign on bonus. Offer is coming back at $125k with no bonus. Exiting my current position I'll be leaving a 3% pay increase, $12k bonus payout next month and full remote work on the table. Those considered it would be a lateral financial move for the 2023 year.

AD- associates will get to know about the merit increase in the first half of October by manager. E-letters will be released following that.

Hike will be effective from October 1st.

Thank you.

Please suggest good product based company for SDET role.

What do you actually want out of your career in Big Law? What's your end goal for your career and for your impact on the field?

I lateraled after two years of bad reviews and failing to be promoted to the next class year at the firm I summered at. When I lateraled, I was brought on at the class year that matched my graduation year but was unsure if I had what it took to be a biglaw attorney. I had my annual review yesterday and was promoted (and received nothing but positive feedback). Sometimes it isn't you.
