Just finished The Vanishing Half... any book recommendations for the holiday break?

Ladies who love food: let’s try out different cool restaurants together!

Any Kevin Samuels fans or critics in here? Thoughts?

Might move from agency to a premium car brand. New position is contract, not W2. Currently making 64k , bonus, 401k, health insurance, 15 days PTO. What $$ ask would be reasonable to recoup benefits?

Question for BAH - are you able to expense taxi/uber for after hour safety from your holiday event to home? I know most companies let you and so does Deloitte. Asking for a Booz friend.

If yes, please comment your DOJ as Monday(OCT 24th) is a public holiday.
