I’m doing a presentation on coming out in the workplace and creating an environment that champions diversity. What are best practices by your coworkers that have helped you or you have observed?

For freelancer that work with multiple clients at once. Do you have any tools to manage calendars across different emails? Ideally, when I get a meeting invite from one client it would block my availability on my other accounts.

When the company does meet and greets they ask about hobbies, I like to shoot guns, I enjoy them and have several. I don’t mention this due to stigma people have about guns. I feel that I have to hide a part of myself at work and it’s frustrating.

How do you deal with blatantly ass kissing colleagues? Especially when the MD loves it too much to see through it.

Is it just me or does your manager also sometimes tends to ignore you post a not so successful client meeting?
I am new to this corporate scenario, please tell me how do I reach out to my manager without sounding needy? Is it okay for my manager to ignore me post a client call?

What's a guilty pleasure you indulge in at work?

This might be too ambiguous to answer, but I want to get better at taking iniative, but I don't know how. I can be pretty shy in work settings. I do things without being told, but I want to go beyond that like start projects etc. Provide more value.

I'm at an agency where we work across different brands (and therefore different CDs and accnt teams). Is it okay to request to not work for a particular CD team? Or will that reflect badly on me?

Elderly account woman who wears flip-flops to work, I want to throw my shoe at you.

Boss: I need you to stop challenging me on every decision.

Me: I don’t want us to have a confrontational relationship and I think we can agree something needs to change. When you make stupid decisions, that affects my business and it makes me feel like you’re not up to the job. That makes it harder for my team to do our jobs. I think to be an authentic leader I need to be radically candid with you and point our your mistakes. So are you willing to work with me on this?

My manager and I usually check in everyday via slack to manage our ongoing projects. But he’s put a weekly 1:1 on the calendar...not sure what I can bring to that meeting or talk about if he already has so much visibility into my work stream. Advice pls! I’m also 3 months into the job

How do you deal with a senior who thinks he's your boss year round even when you're not on the client? #troubledfirstyear

Biggest stereotypes about working in diversity & inclusion....Go!

Is it a nice idea to be close to your employees?

Is this bowl still alive? Lol.
Maybe we can share our age, gender and location?

Hey team! I've been thinking about what success would mean in terms of this platform and general inclusion in the team. These are some of my thoughts:

1. Frequency of positive engagements (positive in a productive, constructive sense)
2. Increasing numbers of people engaging in each topic as they get more comfortable using the tool and airing their opinions
3. Some measure outside the app of team engagement in day to day interactions (changes in psychological safety)

What are your thoughts?

Hello! It seems this bowl is not very active but I'd like it to be. So here's my story: Born & raised in PR, moved to CA for undergrad & have been here since then. I graduated from law school in 2019, followed by a 2 yr bk clerkship. I did the evening program. I really enjoyed law school, in spite of the microaggressions, the late nights, & crazy competition. Love all things diversity in the law. Anyway, currently looking for a position in NYC/DC area. 🤗

Hello fishes, Do you have suggestions on Diversity & Inclusion activities that can be done virtually with a group? I found few ideas in google but would love to hear about any experiences and suggestions.

I don’t have the personality to be in PA but I love this job and want to stay here as long as I can. How do I conquer my introverted ness and make it less cringe-y and awkward?

I am a real estate agent who is in the process of closing on her first home. We offered $15k under list and asked for closing costs to be paid for. Granted, this is in a very small rural town; however, just know... If you have been looking for a home for the last 2 years and have not had great luck, now is the time to take advantage of the changing market. You can refi when rates drop.

Interested in going to a smaller company (also independently owned vs public), does this auto equate to a reduced salary? Is it realistic to expect to keep same $/within range of where I currently am?

I have the option to give three weeks notice and still take four weeks off in between jobs but feel guilty that I can afford to be unpaid for so long. Anyone regret taking so much time off between jobs or regret not taking more time off?

Hi 🐠, I'm starting a project with a faith based hospital system whose governing church explicitly condemns the "gay lifestyle." Questions:

Just broke up with bf of 11 months. First serious relationship. How long until this terrible feeling ends?

Why are Boston gays so parochial?

Any 🐠 at BCG who can comment on culture?

Is my bar too high in this day and age if I want guys to at least ask me out in person instead of reaching out on social media having never met me in person before? I just like when you have the guts to approach me in person instead of hiding behind a keyboard, or start with wanting to get to know me and not coming on too strong if we've never met.

I empathize that it's more comfortable for us to hide behind our keyboards, but I also like a guy with guts and conviction.

I have a layover in Orlando Sunday night. Any gay bar recommendations?

That post about pronouns is such a shitshow

Happy pride, DC! 🏳️‍🌈

I’m 25/F, recently came out to my mother as gay and she was not receptive. I decided to send a message to my father and sisters to tell them next, and got crickets. I have a wonderful girlfriend and was so excited to share it with them, and it hurts to not have their support. I feel lucky that I have wonderful friends who do support me though. Anyone have any advice for how I’m feeling now? 🥺♥️ At the very least, I’m proud of myself for coming out and being me. Just lonelier than I imagined.

Single 30M here - looking for LTR but I feel in this age of online apps - hard to sustain it. Plus constantly traveling adds another layer. Any experiences or pointers will be appreciated
