Can you people help me decide which one to join.

How can someone find a job localizing marketing content (taking poorly translated material and fixing it up for US consumers)? I've heard that it's a real job but can't find much information about it

Bad idea to reneg on an internship offer for a better offer?

As a man are you looking for an extremely successful lady that is extremely career driven and willing to do whatever it takes to make it to the next level or are you more attracted to a lady that is happy at the level she is at and takes the next step as it comes? To put things into simple terms would you rather a 9-5 lady or a 9- whenever the job is done lady? Explain why please.

When I downloaded Fishbowl over a year ago I had impostor syndrome and was worried all the successful people here would look down on me. Seeing so many people with high ranking titles relate to my everyday life made me more confident to just be me.

We're all insecure, meme loving, pot heads just figuring out life together 🥹 ❤

Does anyone remember limewire and Morpheus days. My computer had so many stds from downloading all those music files

Sometimes I walk around my house calling my dogs name, pretending I don’t see him, even though he’s right there on the couch. I walk around “searching” for him. It makes me happy because my dog then tries to cuddle and jump on me as if to show me “hooman, what’s wrong with your eyes? Is I invisible?”

I would smoke the shit out of some weed right now if I could find it.

What do you wish on your ex?

Both my grandparents died within the last few years (husband/wife) and now the siblings (including my dad) need to divide up the remaining estate. My dad is the oldest and has been the primary caretaker for both of his parents, who lived to their late 80’s/early 90’s and his disabled sister. He also manages an apartment building for the family. Now the youngest brother wants to do a bunch of auditing of accounts and is ready to take my dad to court. I’m like, you had 15+ years to get (cont)

So this dude asked me late last night if I wanted to call him and said he needed someone to talk to while working late..told me to let him know if I had a guy over then he’ll talk to someone else. I didn’t have a guy over and not that kind of person so why assume that? It pisses me off.

I’m so grumpy about new campus hires. Sometimes I’m judgmental (your hobby is “working on your golf swing,” really?). Sometimes I’m just exhausted by the worried earnestness. Sometimes I’m amazed that they seem to have zero useful skills, yet they’ll be making 150k easily in the not too distant future.

Is it a red flag if someone says they don’t believe in self help books like Atomic Habits, Attached, etc?

I haven't been reading recently but I want to start again! Any good book recs?

Past likes include:
Dune (1&2 - series got a little weird later on)
Enders Game
Michael Crichton's Sphere & Prey
Gates of Fire
Loved the hobbit but that's probably all I could do with that genre as I'm not super into fantasy/magic really.

I like sci-fi but I could get into a good adventure if consensus is its worthwhile. Not really into nonfiction. Thanks!

Everyone likes me because I'm a doormat with no boundaries. I do anything and say anything to make people happy. I will think what you think I should think. Will you be my friend?

I want a baby 😭

I went to visit another market team in (midwest city) and slept with the market manager. Now we're planning a trip to Mexico. I can't tell if I'm trying to get over my ex or actually interested.....

I started a new job a month ago and that just so happened to be when my birth control decided to screw with my emotions. I can barely hold it together already and I have the added stress of a new job and it being busy season. I don’t know what to do. I cry multiple times daily. I don’t know how to keep going.

I dont understand why there is such a labor shortage. Especially with corporate private sphere jobs that tend to pay well.

If you work at McDonald's and the government will pay you more to not work, I get it. But not higher caliber jobs.

I’m in a committed relationship and have realized I developed an elementary school level crush on a coworker. How do I kill the crush and maintain the friendship?

LinkedIn is a garbage app where I can’t even post my opinion or experience because it will go against the mainstream ideologies. If I even “like” a post then I worry that my peers and managers see what I like and suddenly I need inclusivity training. What a load of shit! You can’t be who you truly are on that app. Which is why I like fishbowl so much, the anonymity is a game changer. If LinkedIn was a anonymous, we’d see a lot more support for Kanye and a lot less LGBQT material. Bet!
