It’s all I have time for

Hi

Has anyone from the cognizant registered BH for a car in Pune or Maharashtra? And are they allowing it? As per rules its allowed but I heard RTO is declining the request

Got to know that the current hybrid work policy (3 day wfo and 2 day wfh) is valid till december only, post which everyone is suppose to work from office.. is it true?

Felt particularly good about how I looked today. And when I saw that a certain someone wasn’t at the office, I felt disappointed. Didn’t realize I was attracted until then. How do I un-realize it? 🤦🏼‍♀️

How to deal with people flirting with you at work.
I’m married, and one of my coworkers flirts with me. Nothing super overt, but definitely not professional. We’re good friends and work together constantly because we’re on the same client, so I don’t want to make it awkward. Do I just do nothing and let it go? It is mostly just odd I’m not super offended, but I’m also clearly uninterested!

Anyone want to go on a date today? 🤷🏻‍♀️

IT is what has put India on the map!

What is the realistic shot of getting off HBS waitlist? Does anyone know what those numbers look like?

If dogecoin continues to moon and miners don’t step up their game, someone’s going to 51% attack the network and start stealing coins

I've noticed that the engineers keep their mouths shut whenever they're asked for feedback, but when they're alone, they talk about how much they wish they could change management.

Why is that?

I’m job searching right now and applied for a job I was a little overqualified for just to shoot my shot and get my foot in the door with a great brand. The hiring mgr took the time to email me to tell me I was overqualified and offered to help me get connected to his network. He’s been so kind and helpful and I’m kind of in shock at his generosity. Even if an offer doesn’t come from it, is it weird if I send him a Starbucks gift card or something as a thank you? What’s appropriate?

I am currently a year from finishing my PhD and was looking at VC's as a career path because I like to do meta-analysis of different climate change techs. I networked with VCs and one of them was receptive but didn't have the budget currently for a full time hire. They said they'd be interested in working with me to do a research paper over the coming semester, and was wondering if I could leverage this into a full time offer?

Is a white paper with a VC going to be attractive on my CV?

Looking for some book recommendations :)

Got laid off on Friday. Three days and I'm already bored out of my mind. Besides Jim, what are people doing to pass the time in between job hunting?

Definitely some consultants just sat down next to me at the bar. Overheard: "How many shots should we take?" "Depends. How many slides do you want in the deck?"

Interesting stats this morning. EY hired 65k people this year from 2million that applied. 3% hiring rate. One person hired every 8 minutes. What is Harvard’s acceptance rate again (5.4%)?

My team surprised our SM with a secret mannequin challenge video for his birthday today (with party favors and props)! Even leadership and the clients were in on it. He's working remotely but (cont.)
