I’m struggling to make new friends in SF bc I’m not very bubbly and most people I meet already have a ‘crew.’ So I’m either intimidated or don’t want to intrude. I’m in my late 20s. Anyone wanna meet

For a glass of wine? I always see these kinda posts on the singles bowl and thought I’d try it here bc a lot of the women here seem supportive, driven, intelligent and caring. I’d love to meet you guys in person. I’m in my late 20s, looking for girl friends to grab drinks/ dinner with, go workout and go to Napa with!

Girl I feel your pain, I moved up there for three years and found it really difficult to find a good group. Ended up moving back home to LA (for different reasons)

I made two good friends in my three years here and they all moved back home to NY and San Diego. And now we barely talk 😭 And alone again, as always

Try bumble BFF. I had success on that in Seattle and I feel like the city vibes are similar.

Women who have had kids while working - what was the situation when you were breast feeding? My office uses a supply closet as the “lactation room” and sometimes women would use an empty office at the end of the hall...feels a little cruel to me but maybe that’s how it is everywhere? FYI I don’t have kids yet but thinking about it and the lactation room situation just bothers me for some reason...

Does anyone know of any good job options in FL for attorneys who are not licensed in FL? I’m wanting to move back to be closer to my family but I really do not want to take the bar again. I’m currently licensed in MO and doing products liability and trucking litigation through the Midwest. I’ve applied for some in house roles but I’ve only got three years of practice so I’m not sure I’m qualified. Is it possible to find something or will I need to suck it up and take the bar again?

Is RPA sales engineering a good career pivot now? Have been in Cloud SE for 5 years and it is getting mundane. Forget about the Data and AI, realistically majority of the work is around VM migration + RFP + Pricing + pushing commit 2x more than customer's current need, instead of really adding technical and business value to the customer.

RPA seems to be on the rise, there are certainly risk but the value + technology seems to be closer to reality. Love to hear more.

HSBC Results are out HSBC’s pre-tax profits almost doubled to $2.7bn in the final quarter of 2021 as the UK lender’s commercial banking revenues were buoyed by growth in credit and lending.

Reflection of these results on employees : Single digit hikes even for top performers. Same scene continues from past 3 years now. HSBC
