I went to confession for the first time in a long time today. It felt good.

All the posts I read in this bowl are centered around GC and priority dates. Am I the only one that can’t even seem to win the H1B lottery? Down to my final try 🤞🏼

Can I get H1B visa stamp annotated with (future employer) while I serve my (current) employer’s notice period?
I have a job offer from Meta and awaiting my H1B transfer approval notice. I have never received an H1B visa stamp before. I want to work from India (& get H1 stamped with Meta based on offer letter+approval notice) during my notice period, followed by 2 weeks of unemployment, and start my new job at Meta once I return to the US.

Anyone apply for marriage based green card on your own (without a lawyer/law firm)? How did it go? Would you recommend doing it yourself to others?

What is the timeline in EY once Perm is approved to do concurrent filing.

A gold-backed international currency. Yay or nay?

I’m really discouraged. My after tax / after 401k contributions etc. take home pay is $6,500 monthly. I have $60,000 in savings / stocks for a down payment but even looking at a $550,000 home, my monthly payment would be about $3,400 from the calculators I’ve been using. Is that too high?

So discouraged that houses where I live are about 50% higher than what they were 2 years ago, and now interest rates are around 5.25% for my credit score. This is like a 1750 sq foot home

Is IB worth the sacrifice of WLB? Obvious pay is really good but are the prestige and pay worth it if you’re planning on only doing it for a couple years?

Currently working at an IRA with great WLB. Honestly I love my job, the firm, and people I work with.

Also doing MBA part time at a T15 school. Thinking about switching to IB but I’ve done my research and I think I would burn out of IB in two years but I might be ok with that for the opportunities after.

Can anybody tell me does BOSCH support buyout option? Should a candidate serve 3 months of notice period strictly?

What exactly say to HR on call for counter offer negotiation. Any sample would be helpful, having a hard time to find the right words as the right choice of words is crucial here.

Anyone invest in franchises and in particular has anyone used a company called FranChoice to help you match w a franchise?

COO’s & previous SR. account executives…

I made it to regional manager for a franchise by age 22. Ran a successful financial practice & sold by the age of 33. Took 2 years off and built a health & wellness coaching platform for my wife (medical provider). Then, the last 2.5 yrs, have been a top producer in Saas sales as a senior account executive. I’ve been told I would make a great COO someday and I’m ready to take the next step into leadership. Who/what should I be targeting next?

Dreaming of less stress and more freedom these days. What would you all be doing if you weren't in this field?

Thoughts on Hudson MX? seems like it eliminates a lot of pain points in the buying process. Goodbye Mediaocean?

If you follow the cryptocurrency market, or even have been just taking an interest lately, with the Bitcoin "halvening," you should check out Pi.

If you haven't heard of Pi, it's a new cryptocurrency (like Bitcoin), developed by a bunch of Stanford PhDs. What makes it really interesting is that you can still mine this coin, using just the processing power of your phone, unlike just about every other coin out there. (Contd)

Also, anyone have success, or know anyone who has had success, using Catholic Match?

Does anyone know if there is a Catholic lawyers bowl? I’m leaving consulting to practice law, but I promise not to leave this bowl! Though I do wish this bowl was more active 🥺

Merry Christmas everyone!

Anyone here a fan of the TLM?

Anyone have cool Advent traditions or practices?

Hi friends. Have you ever dated a non-Catholic or non-Christian, and do you think you could see a holy marriage arising out of it?

As Catholics of the Roman Rite I hope that most of you are aware of the two forms of Roman Rite. There is the Novus Ordo Mass which is the modern rite that resembles nothing of Catholic doctrine and..

I've found great success in the Hallow app! Have you guys tried it out?

Practising Catholic here - I don’t understand what specific catholic challenges I have at work? The biggest issue for me is the annoying Cardinal Pell and other rape jokes.

Wanted to post on here to get advice. I am dating a guy that I love very much but he is atheist. This is something that bothers me since I was raised Catholic and my whole family is Catholic. cont..
