Last Friday I got a call from my group lead Partner, that the person from Markets running a proposal I'm working on is complaining that I don't work fast enough.

Real question: how does a hospital system using a leading EHR not know where in the facility a patient is? Father brought in via ambulance at 215pm.....and when my mother called a few hours later for an update on his status they had no idea where he was. She played “transfer me to Dept X bingo” (ED, med/surg, OR, PACU), til she found a nurse who knew where he was. How does this happen?

I take care of my adult autistic brother. He tends to interrupt my meetings 2 or 3 times a week. My boss scheduled a 1:1 for next week, with a note that the purpose of the meeting is to talk about 'maintaining a proper work environment'. He's kind of an ass and I just know this meeting is about my brother. Is he right to be pissed, or should I take the defensive position here?

My observation is that it is hard for consulting partners to land the quality public or private board roles everyone naturally targets. Despite there being a significant amount of exceptional talent that could be deployed, there is a big bias against consultants. Everyone wants “operators,” but I feel every board could also benefit from one current or former consulting partner. But sadly, that’s not the way the external world looks at things...
