I’m pretty sure I’m about to get an offer and I’d like to stall a few weeks to get my bonus. Any recommendations on how to do that?

Just tell them you’re getting your bonus and ask if you can push the start date after the bonus comes out. It’s normally accommodated.

Alternatively, say you can start now if they’ll tack on a signing bonus to make you whole.

6’0 and weighed in at 220lbs today. All time high and have gained 20lbs since gyms closed in March. When I did workout it was more or less 100% compound lifts. I’m now limited to a few kettlebells but am not even close to as consistent as I was. Any idea on how I can lose this excess 20lbs? I feel like it crept up over night.

There was light touching, leaning in, eye contact, but I want to do more. Anything I should do on the 2nd date? How to initiate?

Additional Posts in F50 In-House Counsel

Can anyone provide insight into Meta Lead Counsel/IC5 total comp? I have an offer (DC) for 210 base/15% bonus/185 equity over four years, and I’m wondering what others have received, how much I can negotiate, etc. I understand base and bonus may not be negotiable, but I’ve heard that technical folks have negotiated equity packages 3-4x the amount I was offered - so is there a lot of room there? Thanks in advance!
