I loathe my partner. Not only do I think they are the laziest person who must have failed upwards but they do this trick all the time where they distract everyone on zoom meetings by turning their camera on and showing their dog and always saying “ if you hear snoring it’s not me” 🙄

How do I stop defining myself by my career? I can’t help but think of a small mistake I made at work for weeks…

Is it cool to use slang when with co workers?

I found one of my coworker's anonymous Twitter accounts, and it has a ton of red flags involving bigotry, sexism, etc. It's a personal account, so should I mention it to HR or not?

Could I pull off asking my manager from J1 for approval of freelancing on the side? It’s quite common anyway for designers I think. And then my j2 can be “freelance” even though it’s full time?

The new junior on my team is from the South and refers to me as “Sir” and it’s making me feel all kinds of ways. How to proceed from here?

Anyone else down to bang their boss? Any success/awkward stories about playing with a direct supervisor?

I work at a ‘free market’ firm and have developed a very good reputation among partners. Naturally, they are drowning me in work. Each time a new case comes up, the partner will email asking if I have “time and interest” in helping. When I’m at capacity, I take these words at face value and explain why I can’t do it, and that seems to work out ok with no hard feelings. But what’s the “interest” thing? If I don’t want to work on a toxic tort case, do I just say that and pass?

I am working for a client in infosys and the project is in initial stage and the go live is somewhere in January.

Now the thing is this project has lot of toxic people from client team and they play blame games on daily basis.

I am working as a team lead here and want to get deallocated from this project.

Please help me with right approach and save my soul.

I wish I could tell my lead how much i like him.

PS: He's engaged.

What is your firm's dress code (when working in the office)?

How do you deal or work with such people?

If buy the partners you work with regularly a holiday gift, how much do you spend? Usually I get baked goods or food items which you can’t tell the actual amount spent on. This year, though, I’d like to support local restaurants by encouraging people to order takeout—hence, giving gift cards.

How much is appropriate for a restaurant gift card from an associate to a partner?

Let’s talk about wrongful termination. The other day I was fired in the middle of the day without any warning. My colleagues called me because they were confused on why the Talent Manager dismissed me from the chat. I didn’t know what they were referring to. So I called my PM to ask what was happening, and she said that she just got off the phone with the TM and said they were terminating my contract on the spot due to me speaking up about micromanaging. No explanation just kicked out. Advice?

I have a partner on my project who is full of feedback and suggestions but has never once said thank you to the team for their hard work or acknowledged our strengths. He comes off as very lecturey but the project is going according to plan and the client is happy. I think a little positive feedback would go a long way. Would it be rude of me as PM to ask the partner to strike a more positive, encouraging tone in meetings?

How do you deal with being chewed out by a CD? Chewed out in a way that feels inappropriately over the top. Now I'm the one overthinking the mistake and feeling bad hours later.

Are MBB people ever willing to refer someone they have a connection to but don’t personally know (same school or previous employer but haven’t talked to them before)? If so, what makes them likely to refer someone with this degree of connection?

Feeling old. Selling my $4000 motorcycle and buying a $4000 couch.

why am i into my coworker who is engaged lol it needs to stop immediately.

This open office plan sucks. Besides the constant din, we've got 3 agencies crammed on to one floor, sharing conference rooms and huddle rooms. Agency identity is lost and it feels like an ad factory

I absolutely HATE third party recruiters. They continuously waste my time, always slice my rate in half, and have never have solidified a project for me — PLEASE GO AWAY!

ahhhh.. I feel better now 💆🏻‍♂️

Client killed 8 months of work just a few days before the shoot. Feeling completely crushed.

My boss hits on me—and I kinda like it.

Lunchtime power naps, my fav foods and drinks, having the TV on the background— I like working from home and don’t know if I could go back... 😶

I left my job without having anything else lined up otherwise I would have had a mental breakdown. I’m not even in that great of a financial place, but it was my job or my sanity. I know at least three other people who, in the past few months, have left with nothing lined up. I feel like it’s something we need to be talking more about. This isn’t normal for people to be doing this right?

Is 33 too old for a nose piercing?

I’ve had a crush on a coworker forever and we’re stuck in this stupid small talk phase. I’m over analyzing and freeze up and don’t know how to push it forward. How do I get him to make the first move?

My mental health has taken a nose dive. I’m considering breaking up with my fiancee so she doesn’t have to go through the hassle of dealing with me anymore.

I was late to an interview.

I’m type A, never late, certainly not to an interview. I called & sent an email as soon as I knew I would be delayed. They had me come in anyway. Am I totally screwed?
