I’m a 28 year old male, living with gf. I think I’ve got covid - very feverish, cough, hot and cold sweats, pains etc. When I get sick I turn into a massive baby - definition of “man flu”. Is this a massive problem for women (ie a big turn off)? Luckily I only get sick once every 2-3 years, but this feels awful and I’m being a massive sook and I can’t help it lol…

For me- treadmill, chest, biceps.

Any pay cuts/ welfare cuts already happening because of the Corona virus?

PSA: Please DO NOT ask someone who has an Rx for ADD/ADHD for any of their medication. I hate having to take something that doesn't even even the playing field for me. Don't abuse what I need.

Hi…question for CVS workers, how many days of pto a new employee usually gets? Thank you

I need to let it out but I’m so fucking proud of myself and I just realized how lucky I got and it took me until just now to see it. I started in the military and it only took 2 months for me to get out and fall into a bottomless hole of depression. My transition went from: $13 an hour part time, separation with the wife, new job at $18 an hour for physical labor, hit with disability diagnosis, then $20 an hour new office job, reconnecting with wife, having 2nd kid, nearly divorcing (cont.)

H1B people, do you need to disclose to USCIS that you are working from a different state than you are supposed to be, thanks to covid eg: office is in SF but working from Boston cause family is there?

I had surgery 3 weeks ago, almost 4 and the doctor has released me to go back to work sinc either was a work injury. I definitely don't feel ready and feel my knee isn't good enough for the stairs.

Fishes, how is everyone handling dating in this covid chaotic world? What apps etc are you guys using to meet new people? 33 m and failing hard to make this work without my in person charm :)

Have any of you worked in FM and then started practicing HIV medicine? I am working toward an AAHIVS credential, but am wondering if I need to leave my current practice vs try to incorporate treatment where I am. No one else treats HIV in my clinic currently, and PAs in my clinic are not currently paneled but I have a lot of autonomy in my team despite technically seeing patients with an MD listed as PCP

Hi Fishes, I am an Operations Manager at EXL Service with US Insurance ( Property and Casualty) with over 11 years of experience. Looking for a switch, can anyone let me know the consultancies for managerial roles also kindly refer me per requirement.

Partners! I'd like to ask how you differentiated yourself from other senior managers. I get the basic stuff, sell, work hard, client relationships etc, but I'm assuming there are many SMs that boast the same trait. Keeping the obvious aside - what's that oomph factor to reach the pinnacle ?

Hello copyfish, strategist here. Looking to hear from you all what you find most helpful from your strategy team?! Data? Creative sparks? An objective? I’m trying to focus on making briefings easier

Brought my gf sushi take out to her house when she got off of work. She didn't like the meal I got her and started to eat the roll i got for myself. She noticed I wasn't eating so I told her I ate before rather than tell her she was actually eating my dinner. She's now mad at me that I "lied" even though I did it so she wouldn't be embarrassed. Who's in the wrong

Is WLB related with CTC ? Do we have to sacrifice our WLB for success ?

What is your experience ? Please share 🙏

Mine - It comes down to senior management (client management) who believe in this not bcz it makes sense but more of as a religious zeal and the propogate the same across their team to justify their toxic control over their team's life.

How does your company manages HR or team building activities in WFH model ? is it effective in refreshing you or team culture ? Or is it just an extra overhead now ?

I feel it was a good break/refresh when at office but now it really feels just an extra overhead siting on desk pretending to have fun when you can ACTUALLY have rest/fun by just taking break for that time and instead interact with people around yourself AT Home. Feels more refreshing.

What to dou think ?

At each increment/appraisal management giving excuses for not giving a good hike they say kindly add more degree/certification to your profile
Why don't they advise these thing the whole year

They only give more n more load of work during the time and say take more responsibilities do work independently the more experience you have the bigger your ctc will be but things change

Tips for dealing with clients whose expectations are unrealistic?

Any of you using TikTok to display your properties? I see it's working for some realtors and I am tempted to try.

Mom of two here (21 month old and 5 month old) who is starting to consider having a third. I am in my late 30’s and my doctor just recommended I start trying at 6 months postpartum. I am thinking I want to start closer to 8-10 months postpartum but have no idea what to expect with a third. Is anyone in a similar situation? Moms or Dads of two, do you ever look back and wish you had tried for three? Moms or Dads of three, how was the transition from two to three and how much did life change?

I am a sales rep and have worked extremely hard to build a large book of business. Every year upper management seems to find a way to cut commissions and make my hard work, worth less. Is this common? It’s pretty draining to work harder and get paid less year over year even though you’re typically getting more business. I don’t feel valued. Do more for less? Any other great sales companies/ industries that people are happy with and compensated accordingly? Preferably uncapped commissions

How long did it take for you to determine you wanted a relationship with the person you are dating and what determines that for you? I feel like I always jump in too fast!

Looking for some perspective: we just got a brand new $2,000 glass top 78" dining table. I asked my husband to please use a table cloth when he uses that table for d&d with his friends to avoid scratches and the loud dice on the table. He got upset that I "don't let him enjoy our stuff," that I "hate the sound of him having fun," and he says I am being unreasonable. From my perspective, I just want to preserve this expensive piece of furniture that we both love. Am I being unreasonable?

My husband and I have had problems for years. He used to basically give me next to no affection, our sex life barely existed (incl. his absolute refusal to do foreplay … ever!) and his general dismissal of anything I enjoyed (my hobbies were boring to him). Over the last year I just gave up trying and accepted we may need to divorce. Now he is trying a lot- he puts in a lot of effort. While a few years ago this would have made me happy I feel like it’s too little too late, I just don’t care ..

Why do women get judged for their clothes?

Is it messed up to want my gf to move in with me for financial reasons? We have been together for 6 months and about 4 months in I knew I wanted her to move in. But then things got really rocky. After that happened I realized I now would have to wait for us to build some foundation before asking her to move in. I am now thinking about it and her moving in would be the easiest move ever for her. It would also save her about $1k/month. She is looking at places near my place also. (cont.)

I feel like no matter where I am I make myself available to call my boyfriend and when I want to call suddenly the vibe is off and he is not in the mood… should I stop being there 100% or talk about how I feel?

So this guy and I started talking 2 months ago. Things were great but recently he told me that he didn’t know if he really wanted a relationship. I am not trying to jump into things too quickly, but I am also at the stage where I want to settle. Would you guys move on or continue dating this person?

Can someone please explain why some people bring up past emotional hurts during arguments even if you’ve apologized for them and they haven’t happened again? But they still feel the need to weaponize this moment and throw it in your face. And before anyone asks, no it’s not infidelity… just looking for advice/insight here

Anyone have a spouse/partner who is a picky eater?

I grew up with two french bodybuilders for parents and enjoy super minimally seasoned, whole, unprocessed foods (yes, we were the weird house for not having goldfish as kids), and I live with my handsome man from a beautiful Mexican family who cook with many flavors but also eat out a LOT.

He is okay about my cooking as it is 90% veggies, but some nights he’s blunt that he’s picky, and I whine about going out. Thoughts?

I need some advice. I met a guy on a dating app. We talked for a few months before meeting up in person about a couple weeks ago (we live in different states that’s why it took so long to meet up). Anyways we hungout everyday that he was in my city. We casually talked about him visiting again soon. We talked everyday since until a few days ago. He just stopped responding… he’s been online though… what do you guys think?

How does one even begin to ask for an open relationship? Currently engaged.

Got ghosted by a guy I was talking to for 4 months who also told me he loved me. Completely confused and totally discouraged from dating now, can’t trust anyone smh.

I keep having sex with my ex and want to get back together (this is a recent thought & he doesn’t know) but we live on opposite coasts now. We broke up in 2016 yet we manage to hook up pretty much every other time we see each other. It always starts w an innocent hangout but he still does boyfriend duties and we end up hooking up. It feels good but also wrong at the same time. Is this normal? Am I too old for this F/30? I don’t do this with any of my other exes. Not even attracted to them anymo.

33 and still don’t think I want kids. Does that every change?

I am long distance with my boyfriend and am feeling really unsettled about our relationship. We’ve been together 9 months, and long distance for 4/ 9. I love him and am lonely while distanced, but super happy with our relationship. I’m unsettled about the future and if we will be happy together in the future. I do not want to move to where he is located and he does not want to move here. He definitely wants kids, and I’m younger and more unsure. He’s a suburbs guy, and I want lavish city life.

Anyone ever gone through a separation with their spouse and have 3 small kids (under 6) in the equation? My spouse asked me for one tonight 🥲

My fiancée and I were looking for apps to find new friends, preferably couples and came across this website called Bind. It looks good but does anyone know if it’s legitimate? We’re looking for platonic friendships only. Thanks!
