If you receive problematic behavior from another Black person who’s provides/provided a service, should you complain?

I always give constructive feedback, whether it’s good or bad service. Black vendors and Black employees are often not given feedback that’s constructive to help them improve.

I would. You’re still paying for a service and you expect it to be good. I will look for Black Owned in everything, but if service is bad I will try to let them make it right and if they don’t, I look for someone else. There are too many free resources on the internet to learn how to treat customers for us to act as though it’s ok to be treated poorly because the service provider is Black.

Context: I worked with a Black vendor for a party, where they failed, being late and unprofessional as a vendor. I’m contemplating to saying anything or just let it go

I’ve been reading more about how there’s a difference between how men socialize and how women socialize at work. There’s a school of thought that says that men are “friends” outside of work with their coworkers so they are more likely to lift each other at work. Women however are more likely to separate their work friends and their social friends. I think I fall in this group. Cont in comment

Hi, ladies. How long has it taken you to find a new job?

I’m currently on the hunt for a new job and I’m feeling really utterly defeated. Over the past year I’ve probably applied to at least 100 jobs and I’ve been on 8 different interviews all with no offer. I’m not sure if I’m doing anything wrong or if there is more being done behind the scenes that have nothing to do with me. Either way, I’m getting frustrated and my productivity in my current position is slacking as a result.

Have any of you felt your careers aren’t progressing as fast as your yt contemporaries? I just went down a LinkedIn rabbit hole looking through the profiles of some women (non-black) who I worked alongside 12-15 years ago at internships and entry level roles. Almost all of them are director level. I’m still struggling to get to manager level. All of us started in media roles then transitioned to tech in the last 5 years or so. Has anyone else noticed this?
