I’ve always said perception is someone’s reality whether they are right or not. I would like everyone to think about something the next time you jump to a conclusion on something going on at work. I’ve had people come up to me and say it’s not fair that they are always late and nothing happens. The fact is you don’t know if anything is happening because legally I can’t tell you how it’s being dealt with. That person could be on a final corrective action and I can’t tell you.

I need some interview tips, I have a virtual interview for another HR Manager position at a much larger company, in the email it said to dress for the position you are interviewing for. At my current company we are very casual Friday all week long as we are in the Non-Profit Arts Entertainment industry. Any suggestions would be appropriated.

Has anyone had this issue?
I left PA after almost two years and started in a new role at a boutique investment firm last month. Although my salary and title aren’t entry-level, I’m the least tenured on my team (obviously). I’m realizing that the four others on the team treat me like I’m straight out of college and feel the need to over explain everything. One person keeps telling me that “it’ll take at least a few months for you to understand what I’m talking about”. While I appreciate (cont)

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?

My dept has 2 directors. One is so rude. The other ignores the issue. The previous HR director told me to report any issues because she was building a case (not appropriate info to share, I know). She's since left and there's a new HR director. This rude guy has recently sent me several very rude things through email and I'm debating how to handle it. Is it worth it to talk to HR? Im worried it'll just make things worse since none of it is "wrong", just rude and insensitive.

A large number of Finance partners joined my firm about as year ago from a less regarded firm known for its terrible, low-brow culture. In the group of joiners, there is one female partner who is incredibly rude, crass and disrespectful on a level I have never seen before. What should I do to avoid being staffed on deals with her? Multiple associates the firm wanted to keep have bailed on our firm almost entirely because of her conduct. TYIA.

I recently took a job with a top tier investment manager, which is a step up in title and responsibilities. I went through the typical “notice” conversations with my current employer. My boss, who was a significant supporter and mentor of me during my time at my current firm, told me that he doesn’t think my new firm is “long term” for me. Anyone ever get something like this before? It threw me off because I was hoping for his support, understanding that it’s tough for him temporarily

I’m a 1styear, and there’s one other junior associate of color in my group.
The partner I work for keeps calling me her name. For ex: my name is “Sara” and her name is “Jasmine”. Names not similar, we don’t look alike - but I suppose we are about the same complexion. I can’t help but think it’s because we’re the only two black juniors. I was granting her grace because my mom accidentally calls me my sisters name and stuff, I get that it happens. But now it’s becoming a microagression. Advice?

On a project right now where I am the only senior with 3 staff under me. There is a manager and director but the manager is very uninvolved and the Director is slammed - I’ve essentially been left to run the project. My issue is the 3 staff are completely MIA (Director and Manager knows) - they don’t respond to emails, Teams messages, meeting invites, etc. What would you do in this situation? Cold call them and tell them to work? Call their direct boss?

I’ve been working at my current job for going on four years now. After COVID I took on a lot of responsibility at work and was given a promotion to senior case manager.
