I'm out of the office this week, and I don't check my work phone or laptop when on vacation (family rule, gotta set those work-life boundaries). Well, one of my colleagues resorted to messaging me on Linkedln, asking me a question that can very much wait until Monday (has nothing to do with any project deadlines). I thought this was excessive. What do you think?

Serious question: Do you feel guilty when your airline status lets you jump others on the standby list?

I personally do, but not enough to give it up.

Hello everyone, I’m the new bowl leader (thanks Karinna!) who will be admitting and posting as the bowl grows. If you have any questions or concerns, please DM me. Or if you have something you’d like to post anonymously, I’m good for that too. Bear with me as I’ll be posting here frequently to get the bowl active on its own. Thanks and welcome!

Now a days, most of the HRs are not releasing offer letters in notice period, although we are submitting documents. Am I the one or anyone else also facing same ?

Is part time work in audit ever possible?

I've heard a couple of things about how the partner pension amount @ PwC is determined, both similar in approach.

Both calculations I have heard of result in an annuity paid until death, at which point a surviving spouse (if any) receives the annuity.

The first calculation I have heard is that you get 80% of your highest earning year as a partner (e.g. If your best year was $1M, you'd get $800k as an annuity).

The second calculation I have heard is that they look at your three highest earning years as a partner, and take the second highest and you get 100% of that. (e.g if your three highest earning years were $1M, $800k, and $1.2M, you'd receive $1M as an annuity).

Is ANY of this true, or just all rumor? Any PwC partners that can chime in and explain the pension plan fact for fact? Perhaps with sample numbers?

Any tips for the functional interview for Amazon’s Contracts Manager position? Studying the leadership principles but don’t want to overlook the functional portion.

I wish admin utilized Tier 1 supports with teachers. Smiles, appreciations and acknowledging ones efforts would do a great deal to boost morale and climate. I just don’t understand what that is so hard to do.

Can anyone offer advice for helping with adderall side effects? I was diagnosed a few months ago and I am new to medication. I have been taking 20 mg xr in the morning but have a terrible crash around 2/3pm each day where I just get very very tired. Doctor recommended 10mg ir mid day to combat but I still experience pretty severe fatigue as a side effect. Just wondering if anyone has found any natural strategies to cope or mitigate. Thanks!

Lawyer Couples:
I’m currently an associate (no kids) in a very busy corp group (think 50-60 billable weekly). My wife works significantly less (currently part time, 10-15, but hopefully will be full time soon). I find myself getting upset when asked to help with basic household things (trash, cooking etc.) when she’s been lounging around watching Netflix all day. Am I being reasonable or am I a misogynist? How do you deal with one person having significantly more free time than the other?
