Best Christmas things to do with a two-year-old?
A for effort?

McKinsey & Company I am joining the McKinsey & Company Boston office in late July and searching for housing in the meantime. If I could get some insight on the ratio of days in the office vs work from home that would be super helpful!
If I need to come into the office regularly I will try to find a place close by.

As a lady biz traveler I don't mind being mistaken for a FA...I DO mind being mistaken for a sugar baby whose dude bought her the ticket when upgraded to 1st class 😒
Deloitte 2 - I HATE a when hate when that happens!!!! Whenever I'm in first class or business class international the flight attendant always assumes that I am "with" the male passenger sitting next to me. I've been asked to order food for random sleeping strangers. Because apparently women don't travel business/first unless they are with their sugar daddy
Daddy Deloitte is my ONLY sugar daddy but he makes me work for it
I'm a female and was in a shirt dress and was asked if I was flight attendant
Glad to hear some of you gals have had my experience. It happens most if I'm wearing a solid color dress.
Dam sad to hear sexism is alive and well
Omg yes! Also while working at a client who was an airline I was lost searching for a conf room when an employee asked me "are you looking for the new flight attendant academy room?". I replied "no, but I'll take that as a complement!".
No... Aren't they always wearing their uniform?
No
Is it sexism, or just that people are profiling based on statistical probability? Not saying it's right, just saying I really wish there were more women in first class with their flights paid for by clients vs the men/sugar daddies in their lives to undermine the stereotype's validity.
Hmm if FAs are making these mistakes all the time then it must be the norm?
I just want more women in first class since that'd be much more preferable to the old men I usually sit next to
As a consultant, I usually assume everyone in first got upgraded. As a younger man, I would also prefer more women in first class than old men.
