Who wears a peacoat over a suit?

Be comfortable being uncomfortable. Just wear the suit.

Get a winter weight suit. Layer up with a vest or waistcoat if necessary. Will look classy and still be warm. Also, a classic trench coat can also be a great piece; would stay with earthy tones or dark navy.

Overcoat or wear a sweater over your shirt.

Just had a very uncomfortable conversation with a partner. I have some time off booked to go to my brother’s wedding (I’m the best man). We were chatting and I mentioned that my brother’s future husband is so nice and really a great guy, and we already consider him a member of our family. Partner’s tone immediately shifts and as we’re ending the call he says, “Okay, enjoy the time with your family at the civil ceremony.” Like… girl you live in California, you cannot be this backward.

Admin has to know she treats the kids this way too. One teacher has to work with her door closed to not hear the yelling all day.

How do you fellow writers deal with a domineering creative partner? I’m in a weird position, working with an AD who tends to shoot down my ideas, and aggressively pushes “his” in client meetings. In all my previous partnerships, all ideas were considered “ours”. Adding to the imbalance, this person is actually an ACD, and the CD is out on leave. Usually CD would reign this person in. So at the moment, this partner actually does have all the power in the formal sense. Is there anything I can do?

So, this is a very personal kind of question, but I hope people relate and can provide an answer. I am CLOSE friends with a peer on my team and they an awful engineer and I'm always showing them up, simply by doing the right work. It's getting to a point where I'm getting bogged down by them, and I don't know if our manager will notice or if I need to do something to bring it up. What's the ideal solution for this? Maybe a stealth approach I haven't thought of? I don't want them to be fired...

My new year resolution was to start making 100k this year. I negotiated a solid raise at my firm just this month (60% increase - but I was also being underpaid before, so that’s not much flex) and now hit to 70k/year.

Not much scope of another comp increase for the rest of the year, ans I like the company so not looking to change the job.

Can make another 10k from crypto. Still short by 20k, any ideas or suggestions on how I can make this difference?
