I’m the stereotypical unorganized creative, and I want to be better. What are some tips for getting one’s shit together?

Are there any good movies or novels that show skill development - like follow through? Self-management? Money management? I read a lot of self help books so I know a lot of the theory, and books peppered with examples help, but I feel like most 1 paragraph examples don’t five justice to how hard it may be to change a behavior.

Wow! What a day! What type of company starts layoffs right before the holidays? Lost my job this morning and I am stressed out. Is there any chance of finding a new job before the holidays? I'm doubting it.

I have 1 YOE in strategy consulting at a Big 4, planning to apply for BA/AC roles at MBB. I’ve read they prefer you to list test scores on the application. I’ve never taken the GMAT, so is my ACT still ok to include even though it’s nearly a decade old? 99th percentile fwiw

Derivatives Clearing Client Service role. Any idea if this would be interesting? Is this FO?

Hi Guys, I came on a previsit and joined and then returned back to my Home Town but while signing the contract i saw that if you leave the company withing 2 year you have to pay entire relocation cost back.

1. My initial offer letter didnt have these clause mentioned.
2. Is Pre-Visit considered as a part of relocation, I came because they denied virtual onboarding .

Now my question i didnt take relocation package i was forced to come for onboarding.

Any advice for explaining the risks of a situation without management thinking I’m weak or not being aggressively fighting for their position?

I am currently doing my full-time internship at a startup where I am getting paid 17$/hr. I will most probably be continuing with them in Fall as a part-time and asked for an upgrade to 25$/hr. I asked for that upgrade because I already have around two years of experience outside of Canada as a social media executive in a multinational company. I am currently doing a masters degree at Concordia so I believe 25$/hr would be more appropriate. Am I aiming too high?

I had cleared all the technical+ managerial round in @amdocs . Even salary discussion had also happened. And they were about to share the offer letter. But now they are saying that hiring is on hold now for the project.

Also, HR had asked me to check with my friends ( I had told her that my friend is working in Amdocs ) if any other opening is available for Java Springboot Microservice Developer role. Then she will forward my profile.

If any of you know about any opening please let me know.

Hi All! I have a System Dev Engineer interview- was wondering if anyone could share some advice on what to expect? - would be greatly appreciated :)

I have come for RTO after withdrawing resignation only to hear from the security guard that I'm TERMINATED from client end! I have not received a single mail on it. Rather, Accenture retained me for the same client's project. My AVP, Manager, HR all aware. They are telling I'm on Accenture payroll. I got a re on-boarding email from client end today too. What's going on?

Taking my CIPP/US tomorrow, any hints?

Do you live above me?

If so, who taught you how to walk?

Probably won't stress over presenting to clients after seeing Mark Zuckerberg's face testifying in front of Congress.

Sometimes I just don’t go to meetings. Not because I’m double-booked, but because I know I’m only needed for about :30 of that meeting and have nothing else to contribute. It’s my act of defiance

I live in constant fear that someone is going to nominate me for the black and white photo challenge thing and I’ll have to pretend I didn’t see it.

I always thought that, to be creative one has to suffer for your art. Inspiration would come from personal pain. I've always felt like an imposter as an artist... (Continued)

Is it customary to feel iced out at a new place? A simple good morning or acknowledging that I'm alive would be cool.

I forgot that today was Monday and accidentally waked and baked

Sending out good vibes to everyone job searching and interviewing today...

I feel like I’m being set up for failure at my current position. Communication is non existent, I’m never given clear direction on anything, and process is so backwards (any attempts to fix it...(1/2)

So, when do we all stop saying "Happy New Year" on all new emails?

Just got a 12% raise and a promotion because of a keynote presentation created last night.

I know I have to look for a job but I really don’t want to. Waiting it out until I can start a new job somewhere else that’s not my cluttered home office.

The Coronavirus test is painful. How is no one talking about this?

If you say “work wife” I’m judging you. Grow up

On the sexist air conditioning thing. I try to sympathize with the air being tuned to my level vs yours. But please also understand that I am covered in hair that I cannot take off and you are not.

So can we talk about nightmare clients!?! Omg, it’s so taxing when you’re clients are constantly exuding negative energy every time you’re on a call with them. I’m wondering if they feel the same way when deal with their partners internally.. maybe they are just channeling their internal madness!! 🆘

I just received an email to my personal account intended for someone else with the same name as me from their cousin wanting to reconnect. They said all these amazing things about this other person...

I thought my friend was gay. Turns out he’s not. And now I think I have a crush on him. But I can’t get it out of my head that I thought he was gay! (I’m a woman btw)

Do you ever just walk into a stall and then walk right back out? And then feel bad bc the person who just vacated it is still at the sinks? 😂

I save my Starbucks rewards to splurge in office hangover days.
