Very off-law question: Since having my child I haven’t really worked out hard. Before, after a hard work-out, I noticed my sweat smelled really good. Just had a really challenging work-out and the smell is the same. It’s like Burberry is in my veins or something. This cannot be normal. Is this normal?
I though sweat was to smell bad?

My sister in law and I both got pregnant 1.5 months apart with her being first. I was so excited I couldn’t hold it in and told our families right away on my news. My SIL just told her family at 13 weeks and it drove me nuts that she waited so long. To cap it off, she delivered the news via text. That is so weird to me that in itself bugs me! I hate I’m being so judgmental but I don’t understand why she doesn’t want to celebrate/ think positively!!! I’m like come on girl, let’s celebrate!

Hi There- I’m currently pregnant with twins and was laid off when I was about 7 months into my pregnancy. Since then, I have applied to countless positions, spoken to multiple executive recruiters, and even got as far as the last round of interviews with a company—only to be turned down for “someone with more experience.” This is the 3rd time this is happened to me this year. I have over 10+ years in the healthcare industry, and am looking for a position (continued in comments below)

Hi everyone! :) My husband and I recently moved to Atlanta (midtown) and we were wondering if there are any couples on here who would like to meet and grab some food or drinks? We are 27 and 30 years old and would like to meet some people that we can just kick it with, grill, watch sports, go hiking etc. Even better if you are in a interracial and/or expat-US citizen relationship but don’t have to. Looking forward to meeting you :).

What's the differences between working at ServiceNow Global Elite partners like Deloitte, DXC, IBM, KPMG versus Elite partners like GlideFast, Infosys, Cognizant, Thirdera, Crossfuze, Highmetric, etc.? Do you feel being treated like a person at smaller companies (Elite partners) rather than just a number at bigger companies (Global Elite)? Do smaller fishes (Elite) lose more big contracts to big fishes (Global Elite)? I'm considering a change and don't know which companies to choose.

Today marks the 80th anniversary of the Day Pearl Harbor was attacked launching the United States into World War II. What many people might not know is that on December 8th, (the very next day) those same planes that attached Pearl Harbor, continued with their their assault on the Philippines. Just like in Pearl Harbor, many Americans also lost their lives. Even more devastating was the fact that the Bataan Death March became the result of that attack.
