Just joined this bowl and scrolled down. My takeaway is that Sapientrazorfish was def that weird kid who read manga in high school (wasn’t even an Asian kid)

I had *just* gotten back into running (2 weeks) when I found out I’m pregnant! Great news, but would you keep running? Doctor says it’s up to me.

My father respects me more now that I am in the military, I understand him because he was a marine himself, but I can't help thinking how unfair that is. Glad I enjoy being in the troops!

Custody case last week.

On direct: Dad testifying about how his contact name in Mom's phone is baby daddy. (Pretending to cry): "it's derogatory, I know my child thinks I'm just a baby daddy."

During recess: Me to the GAL: will you dare me to sing the baby daddy song in court?
GAL: I'd pay to see that.

Me, on cross: Mr. L, isn't that an inside joke bt you and Ms. L. Doesn't it come from the song from the 90s, "who dat is, that's just my baby daddy, who dat is..." (singing the song in th

Started this bowl because I unexpectedly lost a parent years ago and it still affects me to this day. Wanted to create a safe space, ie a group where people who are going through similar experiences can vent and realize you’re not alone (: welcome to the party!

In case anyone would like to spare themselves a heart attack stroke and possibly spreading Covid to a large group of people as you run around screaming for help. If you child goes missing and doesn’t respond to you calling her name despite screaming it at the top of your lungs 50 times check under the blankets her room. She could be a very sound sleeper and entirely huddled under the blanket on the floor. Also don’t trust your 12 year old to check under the blanket either before calling 911.

Does anyone know if you accrue pto when you’re on maternity leave at Deloitte?

I wish we had like a quiet room similar to the mother nursery room. Where it's like yo you go there and there are pillows wifi and you can just work in your own little bubble

Wife wants another kid, I don’t. One I just don’t and two we haven’t been connecting lately so it doesn’t make sense to me. She’s threatened to leave me if I don’t want another kid and do what she can to keep our full time. I haven’t missed any moments of my child’s life and don’t intend on ever doing so. She also want me to spend a couple grand to go to a destination wedding for her friend that I loathe and threw a fit until I caved in. I’m exhausted!!!

I am generally uncomfortable when I’m around my mother-in-law’s husband.

While he is overall a decent guy, his anger issues, yelling at his wife for the slightest issue, and insulting nature makes me uncomfortable and triggers my own anger due to his blatant disrespect for just about everyone around him.

My mother-in-law says he’s worked on things, but it’s been 10 years of this and I’m not sure I want such behavior around my wife and our kids since we’re trying to conceive soon (cont).

What would you choose? MBB (Digital practice) or Amazon PMT?

Background: T15 MBA student, 7YoE as Mech engineer, long term goal is to climb ladder in Tech, married and have a baby

Situation: I have a MBB and Amazon PMT offer for summer internship that I need to choose. MBB comes with FT offer, Amazon PMT will most likely result in return offer. If I go with MBB, I plan to exit to big Tech in 2-3 years. Y1 TC for both will be quite similar (around 230k).

Thank you in advance!

Any advice for a parent returning to work after a long break to be with family? How do you start to fit into your old pace, team, leadership role? Honestly, I was considered a high performer and my biggest fear is I won't be able to return to that.

For reference we are steering away from MS Project and currently looking into Smartsheets. Does anyone have any other recommendations for a program they found useful?

Anyone use Workshare Compare for redlining? Asking for tech assistance out of desperation.

When I compare two Word docs with comment bubbles in order to generate a PDF redline...all of the Word comment bubbles show up in tiny, unreadable margins. It looks like the program doesn’t adjust the margins when comparing, I can’t figure out how to fix it.

I used to use Change-Pro (which I understand is also owned by Litera) where this was not an issue.

Would appreciate any help—thanks.
