I just want HR to know that I bring my laptop to my pedicures, will leave for hours in the middle of the day, but still bust ass nights and weekends when I have to. Normalize ebbs and flows (for non-parents too) instead of 40ish hour minimums.

HR doesn’t care as long as you’re responsive, available and doing good work. The only reason HR would get on your butt is if 1) leadership went to them/someone complained because you were mia & 2) you’re already a crud performer.

Otherwise we don’t care and are probably doing the same.

Take it up to leadership. They’re the ones making the business decisions and their outward support (by being honest about their own flexible schedule) will normalize it in the culture.

I don’t care what you do or when you do it as long as you do it on time.

HR doesn’t care what you do with your ass on the nights and weekends. As long as you aren’t using your work laptop.

Hi Ladies! I am currently in my 20s and single. Due to the pandemic, I feel like my dating experiences have been impacted since there were limitations to meeting people in-person over the past few years. I currently don’t use online dating apps and have no interest in starting one. Where is the best place to meet and mingle with other single people in their 20s or early 30s? I’m not interested in casual dating. Please feel free to share your story and recommendations below! Thank you.

My firm keeps saying that "there's no such thing as a relationship partner" and everyone top-to-bottom is expected to log 2000 hours/year on real billable work. Marketing etc is done on top of that. Is that normal?! If so, I'm going to have to totally rethink my life goals.

Recently got an offer at JPMC in NYC for 110k base for a 602 in operations/strategy (3x in office, 2x home); there would be an added 15 mins walk to the office + 45 mins bus ride.

I’m about to get a new hire to help me out but at JPMC, I won’t have anyone to manage. I have a total of 45 mins commute here.

I have a legitimate, potentially stupid, question—if federal student loans are guaranteed funding by the government, when a person defaults on their loan the lender still gets their money.

How is paying for debt relief any different than paying for the defaulted loan? People keep saying “where does the money come from” but the money has already been allocated because they guarantee funding, no?

Sometimes I feel like my partner truly doesn't understand me. I'm currently trying to lateral in big law, and I am stressed. When I tell her I'm anxious or upset, her first instinct is to try and rationalize through the feelings, and that's not what I need. Hell, our couples counselor has stated numerous times that I need her to call out the way that I'm feeling and address the emotion rather than trying to be solutions driven.

I don't understand why it's hard for her to do that
