I've found that every job I've ever had has 1 problem: communication. It's not poor communication, it's the lack of. Been struggling this year with admin and absent communication. Your experience?

Amen. It is like admin communicates with you only when they want to. If you need them they never respond unless it is convenient or benefits them. And heaven forbid they thank you for doing anything. You go above and beyond to help out your colleagues and they seem like they could care less and if it was ok to them to get it done it would never happen.

Can you try, " Unless you say no, I'm going to..." and see if they answer..

Our previous admin wasn’t great with communication, but at least they would answer email. Now no one does. Out of five admin, not one of them answers email. But they expect us to check and read their emails to us.

Our current principal is very good at communicating. He’s pretty proactive in general.

Hi guys! I could use some help here, feeling a little discouraged. I started working for EY through a contractor and im hoping to move to EY to a different line that I could expand my current skillset. Although I don't hold a degree, I recently completed a certificate with Google in Project Management. I was hoping to move to something in Communications, EA or even Advisory but I haven't had any luck. and advice? Also looking into the EY Employee Referral scheme? or would that even be worth it?

Been passed over for promotion twice (had support from multiple partners both times). Received the top performance rating every year since joining the firm (6 years), which I’ve heard is rare. When passed over, the partners say there were others who have been waiting longer (not necessarily with the highest ratings) and that I should “keep doing what I’m doing” and basically wait my turn. Anyone else face this and have any suggestions/guidance?

What's a rule you are expected to enforce that you strongly disagree with or are indifferent to. Do you enforce it or take the risk?

One of my second graders refers to me as "Miss Tutoring (my first name)" - it's about the cutest thing ever and doesn't bother me one bit. We are moderated sometimes and I'm more worried about her getting in trouble than me for not abiding.

I just recently resigned my teaching position for a position in another state to be closer to family. I will be making a lot less money (about 1/2 as much). Am I crazy to give up a high paying teaching position that took me 12 years to get to on the pay scale or is being closer to my family worth the pay cut? Anybody ever found themselves in a similar situation? I gave up tenure too. Honestly, I wasn’t happy living in my home town making the most money I've made. I guess it’s a leap of faith!
