My coworker wants to hang out just us and has been texting me while I’ve been on a leave of absence (nothing sexual), but I’m questioning his motives a little and know he’s married. He has mentioned his wife before, but that doesn’t mean he has only friendship motives.
I’d be absolutely cool with friendship, but I want to nip this in the bud if he wants anything more. Am I too cynical/jumping to conclusions? How should I sus out intentions delicately?

What are your thoughts about wearing chinos to work?

How are people making the most of dating in Covid? Has anyone met someone through the apps and started dating during this time? Thought it would be a great time to find people who are looking for something serious and less distracted by a busy routine but haven’t had much luck.

The hostility on my team is rough. We have a yeller. I walked by her room the other day. She was screaming across the room at a student, "you have to be kind to get kindness." Seriously, those were her words in a loud, berating, angry tone. Our admin has asked that we not report these. We are to talk to the teacher. She has yelled at me and other adults. Admin has to know she treats the kids this way too. One teacher has to work with her door closed to not hear the yelling all day.

I am seriously worried. I am doing my co-op and my supervisor is not giving me an easy time. I am trying to do my best even with very little direction and this supervisor constantly harassing my about things like her not being able to use google meet or to remember passwords. I feel bullied and very anxious. I am afraid she can jeopardize my visa with a bad evaluation. I have been working at midnight, on Sunday mornings but I am human, I make mistakes, she just blames me instead of teaching.

At an in-office happy hour I once had a coworker shout out loud that she doesn’t trust people who do not drink upon discovering I had OJ in my champagne glass. #rude #IdidntGiveAfuck

I find one of my clients breathtakingly gorgeous. I'm married so would never act on it, but it's noticeable enough to impact my behavior. I.e. this person doesn't have a ton of budget to spend with me, but I find myself going out of my way to help them because just wow

As a manager, how do you expect your employee to deal with a diffcult customer?

I find that being a police officer tends to limit my dating pool. I love being a cop don't get me wrong, but I need a little advice on how to navigate the dating world with being an officer. The moment I am transparent about my career, I get ghosted. Then those who do stick around tend to fall in love with my uniform and not me.

I’m pretty torn on whether I want to take an offer for an internal role or not…
The job itself sounds pretty interesting. Lots of opportunity for growth (eventually will build out a team).

My only concern is the hiring manager. I talked to someone in my network who has worked with him in the past and she told me that she would 100% work with him again bc she learned a lot, but that he has a very dominant personality and that some ppl can butt heads with him.

Any entertaining stories about opposing counsel just losing their mind on you in court or over the phone? How do you respond to opposing counsel who is being rude, unreasonable, or verbally abusive?

My suit pants ripped beyond repair. Is it ok to wear a suit jacket without the pants, like a blazer?

Ladies, where do you shop for versatile work outfits?

Sometimes I let people know I'm sober. I don't talk about the 12 steps unless someone asks. I try to practice attraction rather than promotion. Also I've never done a noon meeting but sometimes I really think I should!

How do you handle rude clinicians in the workplace? I always have an attending talking down to me.

How do I say to my counselor, "be prepared to see a big fall of my utilization because of things out of my control" without sounding like complaining or having a lot of negativity?

Best part about being single: Not having to hold in my gas ! What is the best part of it for you??

Hi fishes!

I am seeing too many post about awards like rising star, Kudos, etc. People keep telling there managers recommended them for these awards.
My manager doesn't interact much with us. I consider myself as some one who has worked hard for project and other intiatives. Should I ask my manager to consider me and if yes how should I initiate it.
Part of MC team.

Thank you.

When you're on FB in the bathroom for too long and the automatic lights turn off...

So my VP at my previous company felt bad and refused to speak to me or attend my farewell after my resignation. His reason was that I somehow betrayed his trust as he had promoted me just last year (after keeping the position open for 4 months and letting me take additional work load after the previous SM left!). Does this make any sense? I mean where does this sense of entitlement or ownership over the employees come from? No wonder the company in question is kind of facing a literal exodus!

hey all, I’m a (female) freelance producer/PM based in Amsterdam. I would really like to network with more female creatives in Europe in general… know of any existing groups? (Please no, why only women? Genuine replies only ☺️)

Been working freelance for the past year and I've made more money and connections than I did while at my previous agency. This is a life tip for young creatives: you value your own work, don't let anyone else do so.

I need marketing help and am trying to find someone on Upwork, but so many interactions don’t match how they sound in their profile. How do I find a good freelancer on Upwork?

Ahhh my hairline is beginning to recede! I’m too young for this!!!!

So this dude asked me late last night if I wanted to call him and said he needed someone to talk to while working late..told me to let him know if I had a guy over then he’ll talk to someone else. I didn’t have a guy over and not that kind of person so why assume that? It pisses me off.

Feeling grateful today. 🥺

Yesterday I made a blanket fort with my husband and we watched a movie and ate ice cream. Yes, it was awesome.

I've been almost 3 years in my previous company and never have I ever tasted any raise from them. I got transferred to different accounts and LOB it was so exhausting and finally when I decided to leave and send my resignation my Supervisor be like "you know you should be thankful of your job" To be honest the job was very stressful and supervisor at some point is somehow toxic but thankful I get to take my leave.

Post a pic of your food and I’ll rate 1-10. Friday food party begins here 🍜

I’m in a committed relationship and have realized I developed an elementary school level crush on a coworker. How do I kill the crush and maintain the friendship?

I was wondering if anybody on here has warned their replacement to basically run and not take the job?? I’m leaving my job next Friday due to a toxic boss that was hired three years ago. I have a week and a half to train my replacement who I really happen to like and I really feel like I need to warn her not to put down roots. I know I shouldn’t even be concerning myself with this, but I’m feeling a lot of guilt not telling her the real reason I’m leaving-has anyone done this?

I dont understand why there is such a labor shortage. Especially with corporate private sphere jobs that tend to pay well.

If you work at McDonald's and the government will pay you more to not work, I get it. But not higher caliber jobs.

Ladies, sometimes we like our hair pulled a little too

Something funny happened yesterday. Ordered take out for my family and went to go pick it up. I get there mask on, cold, my jacket is zipped to my nose. I'm like I'm here to pick up. He's like"how are you". Im like good. Then he's like"you're not going to ask me how I am". I'm like "sorry, how are you". He said he's good. Then her offers me some tea and was like drink this. So I take it politely. As I'm drinking it taking off my mask, dude is staring at me. 😭😭 Continued in comments

I wanna see the Foo Fighters but I’m lame and don’t have anyone to go with 😭😭😭 I’m about to say screw it and go by myself.

I work remote from the west coast and I love it. I rarely travel for work but next week I’ll be in our NY office. I’m actually excited to wear work clothes again for 1 week 😂

If your GF is interested in a 3some, what are your thoughts on that? 🤭

I know we're supposed to live every day like it's our last, but damn it, after a long, stressful week of work, I'm so happy to just lay on my couch all night with some takeout and a cocktail!

I love my SO. We’ve been together for nearly a decade and are talking marriage. I know being with him though will require living far from my family. I love my family and dread the thought of being far from them. My SO has been transparent about wanting to return to his home country. I don’t want to lose him but I also dread being far from my family. What’s the right call here? Fwiw he’s lived in my home country for about a decade now but has been able to visit his pretty easily (cont)
