Imagine if people were actually honest when asked “How are you?” in meetings

I still get really nervous before doing telehealth video calls! I'm never this way face to face.

Is it common practice in Singapore for firms to have a probation period for new joiners (duration at their discretion), during which new joiners can be fired at a week’s notice period?

Just wanted to shout out you guys and this app for helping to guide people whether that's salaries, tips, referrals, etc. Helped give me direction on my next step. Looking forward to starting in Saas after the new year. You guys rock

Also, if you have any books, podcasts, youtube, etc. I could learn from in the few weeks that would be great.

Hi Fishes,

How Can I get free voucher for AWS Dev Associate exam without any co-pay ?

Hi all. . . .
I am thinking of switching to a different company I wanted to know what can I say about the salary expectations. Currently i am a tax associate 2.

How do I get rid of a reputation?
Unfortunately, I’ve overdone the booze several times, including once with people outside our company. I’m early in my PE career and I know how important reputation is. What can I do to deal with this?

I don’t understand how someone can lie about loving you for 6 months. We were together for almost a year (broke up a week before our anniversary). I said I love you first and he said it back. I asked for more reassurance last month with saying I love you more often. Now all of a sudden he said he didn’t know if he loved me and that love meant marriage for him. Okay well great thanks for telling me this now, 6 months after it was initially exchanged. I don’t understand how he could do that.

Starting up an ecommerce business and wondering if I should charge tax for outside of state buyers. Anyone have experience with this? I currently use woocommerce, but unsure if I should collect.

A long post: seeking some perspective. My husband of 2 years that I’ve been in a relationship with for more than 8 years just woke up one day and told me that he’s unhappy in our relationship. I’m devastated because he’s never expressed anything like this in the 8 years. He’s been super supportive and loving, even when we were in a long distance relationship. He supported my career and dreams and this just doesn’t make sense. We have gotten a counselor but things aren’t getting better. Comment>

Is anyone a member of the SHRM Executive Network and do you see any value in your membership?

Crazy ethics issue. Client 1 has VPO against man who later becomes Client 2. This is the 4th VPO this year, previous ones dismissed.

In the meantime, State has filed rape charges against man who becomes Client 2 and A/B charges against Client 1. Client 1 also files for divorce.

Clients reconcile (which is how they both end up clients...) and want VPO dismissed, divorce dismissed, and criminal charges dismissed.

DHS gets involved and want to remove the child from Client 1's custody. (1/2)

What is the maximum CTC I can ask during HR discussion?
I am 4 years experienced. Current CTC - 8 LPA. Have another offer for 11.5 LPA.

Guys, I did my part of losing money. Tell me how I can get out of a 40k debt with this meme coins.. where’s the next pump for a $500?

I'm a programs wildlife biologist meaning that I manage and do not conduct research. I work at a large well known non-profit in Louisiana and make 55k/year. Hoping to find others in this profession to compare with although I have not seen anyone from my field on this platform...

Any advice for asking for almost a 30-35% raise. I recently got an Office Manager position and I wanted to renegotiate my pay. It's a brand new location with branches nationwide. So for a few months I had to do everything myself since I was the only one in the office at this location. I did extremely well and everyone's told me I've been doing a great job. The company has been telling me I'm going to change and get different responsibilities over time.

Hi Fishes,

What is the salary range for Associate level in Business Strategy Consulting profile for 3 YOE?

Thanks!

How did your agency handle layoffs? All-agency meeting before they started? After they ended? Both?

Kinda sorta trying to predict if I’m losing my job tomorrow.

How do I be a decent manager to a coworker who's upset I've been promoted twice in two years and they haven't? We started out as coworkers, became decent friends after a few good moments, but went back to simply coworkers after they flubbed a few projects and I had to step in to clean up. I'm non-confrontational but year-end reviews are right around the corner and I'm worried about having to act professional to someone who I got too close with and who now hates me.

What have other people's experiences been working for companies under WPP?

Can we really just not with April Fools ads? So cringe inducing, so bandwagon-y, so god damn corny & depressingly expected...🤢

What about Italy? Anyone working there?

If you got fired tomorrow, how long can you go without a paycheck? Assume you get 1 week of pay for every 6 months worked, and then can do unemployment after that ($425 a week)

Anybody have success requesting to go from 100% on one account to 50/50 or at least floating around a bit more? Any tips welcome 🙏

Hypothetically, what might happen, if Strat said to fishbowl they needed a virtual hug? Other than CD potentially saying something snarky and mean ...hypothetically only.

Don’t ask me why but would anyone know where I could download McDonald’s font? Preferably for free... I think it’s called Speedee? I can’t find it anywhere... help

Anyone else see that Walmart Office Space spot? So clever!

If you got fired today would you have a Bach up plan? What would it be?

What in the world is this old spice YouTube thing ?

Didn’t know who the CCO is when I was asked about it in an interview... is there anything I can do to redeem myself? I feel like I really dropped the ball on this lol

What's the best website that lists out current agency client rosters? (I've seen this before on FB but can't find the thread. FB - please add search functionality!!)

Brands closing for climate change? Wouldn’t that lost income be more effective/useful if they donated it to clean energy alternatives instead? Do a spot about it to promote it & it’s content. Win. Win

A few years in and I’m finding that the people who have made their entire persona “advertising creative” are secretly the most miserable. I’m taking it as a lesson to treat this as a job and not a calling because it’s ultimately pretty empty.

What do you put in your timesheet after a day of staring at your computer? We all have days that are less than productive, right? Speaking as a creative, anyway.

So why do company merges result in mass layoffs?

What are your favorite millennial traits?

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
