Hi, can someone tell me if I need to manually claim higher rate tax relief on Accenture UK workplace pension e.g. via self assessment? I had assumed it was all taken care of out of the pay packet as it’s a net pay scheme but I have a financial advisor telling me otherwise. It’ll be the first I ever heard about it if so…guess I’ve lost a load of money…???

I am a graduating senior with a CS degree about to start my job in IT (low code, mostly using data tools) at a biotech company. My goal is to be a solutions architect within the next few years. Besides sol. architect cert and other AWS certifications, what can I do to put myself on the path to becoming a Solutions Architect ASAP?

Since I can’t really post anywhere else rn lol, I’d love some feed back on this offer I received. It my first one for a pr account coordinator in nyc: 45k, pto 17 days (but doesn’t start until next year) and thats pretty much it.

Hi,
I am a 22 year old undergrad. I plan to take an extra semester or two to achieve the BioTech certification at my uni. I currently study Neuroscience with a concentration in biochemistry. For those that work at biotech co, pharma co, as lab techs, research, even chemist teachers and profs: What can I do to make myself more competitive for these types of professions? (it can be specific to your career experience) I enjoy learning about medicinal biochemistry and chem in general, if that helps

Any book recommendations that are must reads/made a significant impact on you?

Anyone else buy a lunch box only to use shopping bags instead? I can’t be the only one. Lunchbox has been empty in my trunk for the last year. Used it maybe 3 times.

If your GF is interested in a 3some, what are your thoughts on that? 🤭

The all glass office is cool and chic until you have the worst wedgie of your life

I think you're all OK even if all your beliefs are absolutely and terribly wrong.

I accept you even though your opinions are trash and reek of intellectual laziness and genuine idiocy.

Being ghosted by someone who I thought was genuine. We were seeing each other for over a month (I know it’s not long), but everything went so well until he just disappeared completely for a few days. It’s not my first time being ghosted, I was ghosted by a guy who I was dating for over a year. I tell myself if I can get over that, I can get over this. But it still hurts so much right now 💔 I could use some extra support today

Preparing for my final round case interview and I’ve realized that whereas prior to the first round I was pretty comfortable with casing, now I’m less and less so since I’m increasingly anxious that I could not come up with the right buckets. I’m also doing more untraditional cases at times which makes me feel like I’m not performing that well. Has anyone experienced similar things? How did you cope with it/What’s your advice? Many thanks in advance since I’m now a ball of stress 😩😩

more of a rant than a confession but i did not realize there was a bowl limit on this app and i’m unhappy about it >:( !

Is it a red flag if someone says they don’t believe in self help books like Atomic Habits, Attached, etc?

I didn't apply for a job that would have set me up for the future in the government. I wouldn't have to worry about money or future jobs. My boss had just given me a small pay rise and talked up the future and so I felt good. I now severely regret not applying for the job and cannot stop thinking about it to the point of insomnia and depression. I even contacted the employer but too late. It's a small town and rarely anything comes up. I hate myself and feel like I failed my family. :(

Minor confession

I hate when I respond to a post and people keep responding to it by NOT “replying” but adding another comment. 🤡

Hi all. I was recently diagnosed with bipolar disorder type 2 and it’s been hard to heal with the ups and downs of a very competitive sales position in the current market. Before taking FMLA for 12 weeks I was a top performer. Any advice from those that also live with bipolar disorder, or advice on a potentially a less stressful position to ease out of sales? I have 7 years healthcare sales and 1.5 years as a MLO.

any avid readers? genres you enjoy & its corresponding book?

My gf just got a peloton and now she is insufferable. “Peloton” this and “peloton” that. She even said “you can’t sit with me anymore because you don’t have a peloton”. She’s out of control!

Rings of Power makes me appreciate Peter Jackson even more. Holy F this is a disaster for Amazon, even Hobbit movies are better than this

Confession - I’ve lived in New York for 20+ years and have never A) been to the Statue of Liberty or B) the top of the rock

Hypothetical Q: If a house has two half baths and three full baths, how are they counted? 4 Baths, or 3.5 baths +.5 baths?

I miss music. Like actual bands with instruments and vocal ability. Feels like the music industry is so hollowed out that multi-member instrumental bands like Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, and even Metallica are no longer able to take root.

There are a few talented individual singers (Adele) a lot of awful mumble rappers, but no actual bands that will stand the test of time. Before I get called a Boomer, the problems with the music industry for new artists are well documented.
