I am in a rut...I'm thinking about ending 2022 and starting 2023 on a high note. I have been thinking about taking a last-minute trip. Where would be a great place to celebrate the new year?

🚨 Arriving home to Ohare and was approached by a guy offering taxi rides and handing out business cards in terminal 3 baggage claim. DO NOT ACCEPT RIDES FROM PEOPLE OFFERING THEM!!! Whether they ‘can do cash or card,’ don’t buy it - they’ve got you once you’re in the car. Told airport emergency hotline and they are investigating.

Stay safe and don’t get got!!

Amex platinum vs CSR??

This might be the wrong place to ask but is getting a car worth it?

I think it’ll somewhat improve QOL but with parking, insurance, gas and financing costs I’m not sure spending almost 1K/month is a good idea at 22.

The other problem is that used cars are so damn expensive right now so I can’t just buy a used mx5 for 5-10K

Does anyone know the answer to this? - My first mortgage statement was generated on 11/2 with a due date of 12/1 and includes a month of interest based on the balance on 11/2. I made a principle only payment on 11/14 of $500 which was applied right away. Will the interest automatically recalc to reflect a lower outstanding balance for a portion of the month? I plan to do this every month.

What kinds of opportunities are there for senior managers trying to get out of public accounting? Going from mid sized firm to industry. Been through one too many busy seasons. I’m done!

If we leave public accounting before passing the cpa exam, how do we go about verifying all our work experience/hours once we’ve moved into industry? Still want to get cpa, but moving into industry

Any suggestions for books to read about any guide for buying house in Canada or on real estate in Canada ?

Why is this bowl so cold? 😀

A friend of mine and I are both starting our life firms from scratch. We both do two different areas of law. How can we help each other with referrals and networking? We live in an area that’s pretty geographically large in two different parts of town.

People in UK/EU - Is it your experience that PRINCE2 is valued more than PMP?

I'm confused which one I should do. I have no intention of moving to the US, but Canada maybe.

Did you ever lose all hope in finding happiness in this career but then did something pivotal that helped you achieve it?

What did you do?

Hi all, I have about 7 years of professional experience but only one year as a Customer Success Manager. I work on mid market accounts currently. I love my job, but would prefer to support a more robust platform that will allow me to add more value for my customers.

I’d appreciate your thoughts on what compensation you might expect for a CSM transitioning to a new company with one year of experience.

To clarify, I don’t have an offer yet, I’m just looking to make a move.

Thank you!

I was supportive of Lori when this virus first started but her actions since have dwindled my support of her. I don’t expect her to make every decision correct nor do we have to agree with all of them. I believe she should be correct around 75 percent of the time but I believe she is in the 50 percent range. I know everything doesn’t fall on her shoulder but things haven’t been great as of late. Hopefully they figure out something soon.

Living outside of NYC and remote interviewing for a job, landing an offer, then relocating to NYC -> anyone ever done this?

In your experience have engineering salaries posted on Glassdoor been accurate? I’m seeing many that seem low

Since this seems to be the only safe place I can post anonymously... Does anyone know how to find a legitimate PI? Like that will take photos and do the legwork to track someone... My family is really worried and needs help, but there are too many scammers.

Just had dinner with an MD. She's smokin hot and doesn't even know it! In a relationship but would definitely chuck it to get with her... and I kind of think she has a thing for me too, but idk 4 sure

Anyone else work in the service industry growing up? Worked at a Little Caesars for 4 years (youngest asst. manager ever thank you very much) and I maintain that I have never faced that level of pressure or stress in my professional career. Standing between a Karen-customer and their $5 pizza is not a feeling I’ll ever forget.

Started my first job out of college ~1month ago and am only at around 50% utilization. Before I fully ramp up, what would be some good skills or certs to work towards? I’m working for my firms management/tech practice and am also open to expanding my coding skills (currently pretty basic)

Fish fam - quite new to all this and would appreciate your support. if I am based in a high income tax state but work on site in a lower income tax state. Can I claim the paid taxes back from my home state or do I always pay income tax based on where my home office location is?
Thanks

Would you suggest getting the Peloton bike or the Peloton treadmill?

I'm curious what your sales goals are and how does that increase with your title? For example, at my firm, Practice Leads have a 500K goal while Directors have goals between $1-5 million depending on seniority. I'm wondering if that's low or not.
