I worked in an IT office with ten employees and one was our manager. We all worked in cubicles and fairly close proximity. Just because you share space with others, doesn't mean you need to share personal business. It will bite you.

Have you had to take a copy test or been given an unpaid assignment as part of a job interview? If so, was it for a freelance gig or full-time job? Was it for an agency or in-house?

Hi all, I have been in social services for about 2.5 years now. Initially as a Case Manager and now a Care Coordinator. I currently make $25/hour while living in San Diego, CA. Does this pay seem fair to where I live/the job description?

Does anyone know what an IT Network Inventory Specialist is as a designation?

I've been biking to my home office everyday so I've been wearing gym clothes and bringing a change of clothes with me. When I get in the morning how long can I sit at my desk before going to change?

Can someone recommend a good photographer for headshots? I’ve tried two so far with mixed results. Don’t really like the final product and most are not great for a professional setting.

P&G tells Campaign they want less Account Execs and more Creatives for their money. My agency has six account people and two creatives on a major client so this makes sense!!

I have a phone screen with American Express. Does anyone know how many days of PTO is allotted?

I literally cannot stomach to be around my in laws any longer. My wife and I are in neither political camp and we pretty much have the perspective that no matter what the outcome is every 2 and 4 years isn’t going really affect our lives all that great. We just have the attitude that “things happen, but why let that affect our daily happiness?” My in laws are retired, bored, and do nothing but share Fox News videos on Bookface and have just become so angry. (Cont’d)

For all the business/data analysts out there, do you ever feel like your job is draining you? Like it doesn't really make a difference, the work is really ambiguous or you never feel like you're doing a good enough job? I don't know if it would be different at another company, but I seriously don't understand why so many people are trying to break into this field. Maybe it just isn't for me.

For all of the negativity out there I thought it would be nice to see some of the amazing things happening around us: (I’m in the US so that’s where my examples are from.)

Any non-fiction book recommendations? I normally don’t like NF but recently read Bad Blood by John Carreyrou and loved the style/pace. Any similar recs?

For those of you without a home office: Where do you usually work? My desk is in my bedroom and I’m considering sacrificing aesthetic to move my set up elsewhere

Is it weird that I hate attending work happy hours because all people do is talk about work?

Why do some people preach that you can get infected again after recovering, and then say this won't get solved until we have a vaccine?

Doesn't vulnerability of reinfection render a vaccine useless?

Having seen some of the wild stuff in the past couple years does anyone have a good pointer for a basic “medic” course? Help slow/stop the “oh sh*t” for the real folks to get there?

Husband is a multi sport coach and gone a lot in season, I work in corp banking. Thinking about getting a travel trailer since I camp alone with the kids a lot in the summer, spring and fall for quick weekends. Does anybody do this where you take, maybe 1 day, to create multiple 3 day weekends scattered throughout the year for little trips instead of taking vaca in longer stints? Do you feel more refreshed with lots of smaller trips, or more with a few long trips? Kids are 1 & 3.

Any recommendations for good country music like Chris Stapleton?

Has anyone here renegotiated their salary after a short time being in a role? I accepted a position and I like what I do but I realize that the workload requires a lot to see success and I feel a bit burned out already with my 40 hours/week and occasional extra 30 minutes to an hour a day.

I am stuck between putting in my time and showing my value and asking for an increase to validate doing so to avoid job hopping after a year or so.

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.

How to be good at Sales and have a charismatic personality?
Any words of wisdom? Any great books to read? Any other recommendations?

We just bought a Stearns & Foster hybrid mattress. It still emits a smell and I’m reading all these articles about the harmful effects of off gassing with a memory foam mattress. Should I be concerned about this or will the mattress topper that encases the mattress take care of the problem. It’s always something. Sigh.

I’ve done some soul searching of late and established I’d love to be offered a FTE role in my current company. I think this is partly due to never having had a full time job which I’ve enjoyed and which have valued my contributions. I think this is due to wanting to feel accepted. I know acceptance needs to start with me etc but I think redundancy and workplace gaslighting has meant I’ve never achieved growth and status in one company where I can truly grow. Anyone else has this?

What website can you use to play simple games over zoom (Chinese checkers, chess, checkers)?

Anyone have a standing desk recommendation between the Fully Jarvis vs Uplift V2 vs Autonomous Smartdesk 2? Leaning towards the Jarvis but the Autonomous one seems 50% cheaper, but can’t really tell what the drawbacks are according to their website/reviews

Everyone is focused in the wrong statistic- number of cases. This tells us nothing about how well a country is faring—number of ppl tested, size of country & recovery rate are much more insightful.
