A Male friend helped me with advice on negotiating comp at my new job and reviewing my contract. I’d like to get him a thank you gift. Normally I would have gone with a nice bottle of scotch. But interested in a non alcohol gift. Any ideas?

Creatives who have done launches - how do you present your work in your book? Doubt anyone wants to see all 25 or so things I worked on but want to show the breadth.

Hello all,
I have got an offer from Mastercard at 18.7 lpa as senior database engineer @ level 7.

Random 2 cents thought: It would do us good to admit some of the good work or positive qualities of people we oppose politically. It forces us to tamper down our biases

Anyone out there in Fishbowl-land ever have to draw their service weapon? I know some guys who have been cops for years and never been in that situation, but I want to know how likely it is that it will happen while I’m on the job.

With the holidays fast approaching, I can't help but wonder why I've pigeonholed myself into a career path that keeps me away from family at crazy hours and days. I miss birthdays, holidays; you name it. Three years in, I can see why divorce rates are so damned high.

Thank you for starting this bowl! I just turned 50. I had my one and only child at 41 and went straight into menopause. My symptoms were perhaps confused with postbpatrum and nursing hormone symptoms but bow my hair is dry and frizzy yet somehow also oily and my skin lacks luster and I gain weight so easily. Working from home for eight months has definitely hanged my body shape and not for the better!

Hi,
I graduated last year and was working with my university until last month. I extended my STEM OPT with my university before July 5th (first year OPT expiry). I got a new opportunity right after submitting my application & I notified my change in employer (submitted updated I-20 & I-983).
Last Friday, I got another opportunity that is way better than the current one and I don't want to miss. My STEM OPT application is still under review. Would it be okay if I change my employer again. Thanks!

What has been your greatest challenge this year and how have you overcome?

I’ve been a freelance print production designer for many years, and usually on-site in the before times. Now I work remote, and am finding it uneasy dealing with billing. Before I always billed hourly, which made sense, but it’s becoming an issue now. Some companies don’t have a full days’ work, so it seems wrong to bill full days, and it allows me to juggle projects for different companies, but my billable hours are down. I know I should bill a daily rate, but not sure that will fly. Thoughts?
