What’s the worst part about travel?

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.

Do you think the US will issue a 100% travel ban (aka nobody can come in or get out) similar to some other countries? When and how long?

I work remote from the west coast and I love it. I rarely travel for work but next week I’ll be in our NY office. I’m actually excited to wear work clothes again for 1 week 😂

Have a big upcoming international trip and trying to choose between the Marriott convoy boundless credit card or the chase sapphire preferred card to not have foreign transaction fees. Anyone have any experience with either and can help tip the scales one way or another?

Hi fishes,
Need your thoughts.
I am done with my client interview and it went well but they are asking me to come to gugaon location.
I am from Bangalore location.
I directly said to client that I can't since I have my family here.
When I inform this to my manager he is saying how come u say like this to client.according to kpmg policy u need to travel to anywhere to work.
This is not good right. What should be my reply to the client in such a case and how to handle manager on this?

I've been working in sports for 15 years. Looking to branch out to adjacent brands or industries. Awards from Clio Sports, PRINT, ADDYS.
I've worked as a graphic designer, interactive designer and creative director; freelance in the NFL, MLS, Premier League and PGA Tour; and have written about sports marketing for Adweek & Adidas.
Remote with occasional travel is preferred. I have been working remotely my entire career and would love to chat with likeminded folks that are location agnostic.

Does ZS ask for a reimbursement if an individual leaves ZS with an L1A stamped and did not travel/wish to travel?

Looking for referrals for a Technical Sales Executive position that is Remote (USA), possibly in the industrial sector. Last year I made $109k at AT&T so I'm hoping to at least stay in the same ball park but want a change. I have lots of experience selling IT/telecom, but I also have a Mechanical Engineering background so I'm a good fit for a wide range of technical sales. I have been thinking a role in the industrial sector with a longer sales cycle may be a good fit, can travel up to 25%

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.

Best Marriott or SPG property in Phuket? Ritz isn’t available but most else are. Looking for relaxing beach trip for 3 or 4 nights. Platinum elite but want to go off property for meals too. Thanks!

I was laid off from Deloitte in the 18th. I have an interview with Amazon for a Senior Program Managers Non Technical position with Amazon hiring manager on Monday. Any advice would be much appreciated. I would love to get into Amazon. I hear their interview process is brutal.

I received a message on LinkedIn from an internal recruiter at a company that sounded intriguing. Would it be bad form to ask for more information about the role and about comp up front? I wasn’t looking to leave my firm until later next year at the earliest, but the company sounds really interesting. Don’t want to waste a lot of time if the comp isn’t right, though.

Anyone from Allied Benefits LLC know the salary for a Reimbursement Specialist?

If I get fired while on OPT without getting my H1-B stamped, is it useless or can it be used in future for some other job?

Is it common for tech teams in the big 4 to hold out of state meetings before major holidays like labor day? I've only heard this applies to PWC so far....?

Thanks!

Are LinkedIn learning learningpaths (like, for powerBI, sap) worth getting?

We bought a condo in February 2022 then as you know prices are going down while rates are flying up 😭 We're quite worried about the value of our home and can't really enjoy it. What's your thoughts about this? PS. First time home buyers 🤫

What are your tips to get better at attention to detail. I’ve turned in some projects with easy to catch mistakes and need to not do it again.

SQ, PLTR, and PYPL - should I keep avg down?

Every night for like the past month I’ve been getting incredibly emotional about adulthood. I miss the lack of responsibility, the simplicity of life, friends were always around, and less pressure to be successful.

I’m 3 years out of college now so it’s not like I just started doing this stuff, but I am feeling the exact same feeling as I did when I first started work and just wanted to be back in college. I know I just need to grow up and accept that’s how life is but it’s incredibly upsetting

I find it disturbing that people all of a sudden think remote work = 1/2 work 1/2 care for children

3 Day PTO starts now...my buddy's bachelor party. Forget you, utilization.

Can't stand people shaking their legs under the table. Geezzz.

Best consulting companies with exposure to the blockchain / digital assets space?

So apparently accenture is making people who are on the bench enroll into a mandatory customer service role even if you’re 100% utilized. Friend took 3 weeks of PTO and has been on the bench for a few days and he is being forced. Worst part? It’s Tues-Saturday.

Anyone else want to see the Zoom servers utilization superimposed on top of the COVID infection rate? Assuming they are eerily similar.

Confronted client today about partner forcing us to travel while client site has travel restrictions. As a result is team is remote next week. Counting down days till I get rolled off/fired now lol

Any thoughts on getting a degree from Harvard Extension School? I’m thinking of getting a grad degree in Management Info Systems instead of getting an MBA

How do you figure out what you want to do long term, I’m approaching mid 30s I’m still not sure what my true passion is work wise is.

Watching Boyz N the Hood and Menace 2 Society. Are there books that shed light on how the media and cultural portrayal (whether accurate or not) of black people changed from the 1960s to the 90s?

Channeling my inner Bran Stark at meetings today....

OK.... I’m going to go now....[Warg] 👋👋

Any really impactful books that have helped you career-wise? Not necessarily consulting focused. In need of guidance and a new book so figured I'd kill two birds with one stone or whatever.

Why do some people get laid off and others not? Is it always utilization? Do people typically know they're at risk before it gets to that point?

M/SM and above, why do you label a meeting as “touch point” or ask if you can have a “quick chat” when it’s something serious? Millennials like us always assume we’re about to get fired - I actually have been laid off in a meeting with that title. But at my new job, my boss asked for a “quick chat” to literally ask me to change the title of a meeting and then chat about christmas. Now that I’m in management, I want to understand it better.

Sometimes I just want my work calendar on my personal phone for notifications, etc. There’s gotta be a way to get title, location, duration over without manual copy paste and without big bro knowing.

Lots of us are skilled at delivery but most sales books seem to focus on the pitch and closing... What are your best resources for learning to develop and nurture strong, lasting client relationships?

Colleague passed my work on as his, how to handle this gracefully ?
