I tried explaining to my Director how I wouldn't be able to attend the meeting for work b/c I have to drop my car off at the transmission shop. We have another event coming up in 2 weeks that my Supervisor already found a way to get out of to go to her niece's graduation. But I have no idea how my car is going to be holding up in a few weeks. The mechanic already said its showing symptoms of transmission issues. I swear all my Supervisor does is think about herself.

Are you really comparing dropping off a vehicle to a graduation? Seriously, you can drop it off the night before or early before work. Tons of flexibility. A graduation is something completely different.

No, it doesn't matter, Transmission is just as important, they can record the graduation. If it was their child, yes, but its not so its in the same category

(CONTD) Why the hell does my Director keep telling me my Supervisor it's okay for her to be excused from work events especially if she says she has a "graduation" or "birthday party" to go to & its ONLY 3 OF US?!! I just feel like she's being super unreasonable, manipulative, narcissistic, and selfish. Since when is a graduation for a niece or nephew more important than helping your coworkers with an event for work? Get me tf out of here!

I'm emotionally hit hard from my job, and would like someone to ground me a bit. I joined the new shop last month, with the team who we realized has zero pharma experience. We recently were put on a pitch because our client noticed this. Meanwhile my counterparts of this account has just won more budget, and openly recognized by our client leads. I really wanted to make a difference and step up as a leader, but I have been told there's nothing I should do by my boss. I feel like a failure..

Suggestions to change name of a company? My current employer is a Series A startup. Their name is weird and corny, and just not very techy. Wondering if there’s a way to bring this up to the founders so they would consider the name before we grow bigger and become stuck with the bad name

I keep seeing new GD reviews about the company moving away from the hybrid work model and mandating RTO. Can any current employees explain what’s going on? I’m starting next month as a FT Director based in TX. Curious what the current remote (or lack of remote) climate is like and how employees are feeling about it.

Any letters out yet?
