Great idea. I NEVER eat office snacks so I should do this.

Good on you, OP! No need to take more than your share as D1 implies but paying it fwd is what good societies are made of. Most everyone can find themselves in a vulnerable position with little warning and the percentage of families one major emergency away from financial devastation isn’t an opinion, it’s fact. Thank you for doing good things in even small ways. It all adds up!

What about your personal snacks (like a bag of chips that came with your lunch) that you leave in your desk, only to discover that they're gone the following day? One of my superiors finally admitted to the theft.

We only have hot desking. Also I try to think about what’s nutritional like granola bars.

I’m in discussions to become the GC of a mid size but international company that does ~$1 billion in annual revenue. Smallish legal department. They’ve asked for my comp expectations. I don’t have specific expectations but I want to be compensated at least market for a NYC based GC (which looks like cash comp of at least $300k plus bonus, etc). Any suggestions on how people would respond?

My parents got divorced 6 years ago and my dad kinda gave up on life. His American dream was to graduate with an actuary degree (which he did 2 years ago) and find a corporate job but it never happened...He gave up on life to a point that has no food and is behind rent because he doesn't want to get a $15 an hour job or a maintenance/painting job. He doesn't do drugs or alcohol and my wife is going to kill me if she finds out again that I gave him money again.

Getting over heartbreak and having a full time job is torture lol. My boyfriend and I just broke up after almost a year of being together. It was such a beautiful relationship but ultimately he just didn’t love me. I love him so much. My mind knows that I deserve reciprocal love and I’m worthy, but I feel physically ill. My body hurts, my stomach is in knots, my head hurts. How is it that I have to mend a broken heart but also meet my billable hours lmao
