Is this discrimination?
I didn’t get the promotion “it was super close almost a tie”. I was clearly the better candidate as per doctors and others … When I asked for constructive criticism I didn’t get much but when I pushed I was told I may want to work on my relationship with Jane Doe “phd who overseas the clinic but not on interview panel” Boss said I don’t know how but there me be some “cultural barriers”. Jane Doe is Chinese and I’m middle eastern. He also said Playing victim won’t help me

Need more context here, what’s your relationship with that prof?

Yea there wasn’t enough space to write the PhDs do all the QA etc of the patient treatments etc… my working relations with the PhD is the same as any one else’s in my department, PhDs do qa and process improvements


Being an academic campus they are also automatically faculty and higher on the career ladder then is techs nurses etc. so no working relation that could cause any rift… this PhD in particular is assigned the day to day clinic process improvement so is more connected to the clinic than all the other PhDs

Sounds like a sketchy excuse to me and they were hinting at a race card. Sorry you were treated so unfairly. No one deserves that but at least you know what that company is like before you were hired, IMO.

I work at a ‘free market’ firm and have developed a very good reputation among partners. Naturally, they are drowning me in work. Each time a new case comes up, the partner will email asking if I have “time and interest” in helping. When I’m at capacity, I take these words at face value and explain why I can’t do it, and that seems to work out ok with no hard feelings. But what’s the “interest” thing? If I don’t want to work on a toxic tort case, do I just say that and pass?

The floors are all messed up though but the buyer said they’ll either lower the house price or give a credit for closing cost. There’s also a lot of nicks here and there (some locks missing from door, dents, scratches, stains, and some things are loose). But overall, the house’s architecture and design is so beautiful. Would it be worth it to get it and fix it up? Or find a newer house with less maintenance?
