I used bumble BFF when I first moved to NY and while I didn’t connect very deeply with anyone I met through it, I did end up meeting some of my current best friends via friends of friends of bumble BFF ers. Been feeling in a friend rut lately though and considering getting back on.

I recently moved into a new place that has windows with metal frames. I noticed that now in the winter months since it's cold outside the window frames have a lot of condensation and everything is soaked. Has anyone experienced this before? Is this normal or should I be telling like the building management about it? I'm scared that it might ruin the wood and paint around the area.

Hi all, I’m looking to re-enter the workforce. I had to take a career pause @ the beginning of the pandemic because I had a child. I have 5+ years of experience in life science (bench top, pathology in a hospital, startup, and most recently clinical research). I’d like to make a slight pivot into a health informatics, clinical data or data analytics position but I’m also open to non clinical research positions like regulatory/quality assurance etc. Does anyone have any recommendations? TIA

I’ve been reading more about how there’s a difference between how men socialize and how women socialize at work. There’s a school of thought that says that men are “friends” outside of work with their coworkers so they are more likely to lift each other at work. Women however are more likely to separate their work friends and their social friends. I think I fall in this group. Cont in comment

Have any of you felt your careers aren’t progressing as fast as your yt contemporaries? I just went down a LinkedIn rabbit hole looking through the profiles of some women (non-black) who I worked alongside 12-15 years ago at internships and entry level roles. Almost all of them are director level. I’m still struggling to get to manager level. All of us started in media roles then transitioned to tech in the last 5 years or so. Has anyone else noticed this?

Hi, ladies. How long has it taken you to find a new job?

I’m currently on the hunt for a new job and I’m feeling really utterly defeated. Over the past year I’ve probably applied to at least 100 jobs and I’ve been on 8 different interviews all with no offer. I’m not sure if I’m doing anything wrong or if there is more being done behind the scenes that have nothing to do with me. Either way, I’m getting frustrated and my productivity in my current position is slacking as a result.
