I’m a manager. Straight. My senior (straight) comes to me at the end of happy hour as is like “I can tell you are a beast in bed”. So awkward

Ewww.

I'm assuming (hoping) this senior had too much to drink. As wildly uncomfortable as it would be, I suggest having a conversation with them, and framing it around maintaining professionalism at happy hours. "Hey Senior - It seemed like you had a lot to drink at the happy hour on Friday, if the inappropriate remarks at the end are any indication. Just because the firm is buying does not mean you need to get that level of drunk. I don't want to involve HR. I'm just telling you, for the sake of your career, learn to pace yourself at these things. Partners and upper management keep an eye on how the more junior staff behave at happy hours, even if they pretend that they aren't. They really don't want to worry about you making this kind of mistake with a client present. You do not want to have a reputation that could slow down your progression."

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.

Am I particularly uptight, or is writing meant to be done alone, without a partner talking to you? With past partners, we chat through script notes and then I go off to execute. Current partner likes to sit and chat as I write. To me, writing is crafting a conversation. So I can’t talk to you and simultaneously talk to this audience. Of course I can just say “I’m gonna go write.” But since we’re both CD level, I’m like…is this his first rodeo? Maybe other writers are different though.

Hi all, How do you deal with having a good relationship with an ex-colleague, and then that person switches jobs, becomes a hiring manager, is hiring for a position you’re perfect for (experience + credentials) and then you reach out to them saying you’re interested and why it would be a good idea - and then they completely ghost you..I also sent an application via the website and got rejected. I am really always trying to help out old coworkwrs with getting jobs, but this is just frustrating 🥲
