My last job only lasted 6 months, and I am already on the last straw of my current job at only 5 months. I can’t help but feel frustrated I haven’t worked for anyone who has made me feel their leadership was, well, leadership and not the result of them just needing people to work FOR them. I’m mentally exhausted from feeling undervalued and underutilized. I used to do public speaking professionally and now am not even presenting. They treat me like a junior.

What are some things you can do when you feel like you aren’t fitting in with your team?

My manager asked me to help sprint this proposal. I’m out in 6 weeks. How do I kindly tell him to GTFO

Thought on wearing nice (like branded) jewelry during interviews? Don’t want to come off as like rich but want to be polished

Moving in 5-6 months..when do I give notice?
.
Decided to move out of state after this school year for my kids. I have a good job and a good boss. I don’t want to just drop a two weeks notice because relocating my whole family has obviously taken some time to plan. What’s a good way to be very professional and keep my work relationships in a good note.

Is my manager forcing me out?

In our 121 last we had a good discussion on creating a personal development plan, with the idea being I’d write down clear goals & action points to get from my current level to the next, and I’d provide weekly evidence of it. I prepped the doc accordingly, but instead of wanting to discuss it, he said I have 4 weeks to “turn things around” - without giving any new info on what I’ve done wrong - esp given I wrote my goals based on this same feedback from last week??

I got reprimanded by a man for having an uninspired point of view of a conference call. He then gave me his inspired POV...which was exactly the same. When I pointed that out he said, “huh. Maybe.”

How do you pick your fights with management during promotion year for scheduling?

Have too much on your desk? Maybe one of those briefs is a bit boring?
Send it my way, I'm here to flex my copy muscles for you.

All I ask is you give me feedback when I send it back.

I lashed out emotionally at work recently as of result of a lot pent up frustration. In short I accused those around me of personally attacking me. And I am worried I will loose my job as of result.

The old administrator at my department won't allow me to write on what I want, even though I thought that was implicit when I joined. Can I push her to allow me to take control of my research?

Looking at relocating for spouses new job to Detroit from LA. Any tips? Warnings? Stay where I am? Over saturated with PMs?

Small firm (my boss, me, & a paralegal). After a hearing I did not handle, boss intended to seek review of the ruling in its entirety. What was communicated to me by paralegal was to seek review of a portion.

Seeking review is now time-barred. Boss is not upset, but this is 1 case & 1 problem. There are other cases & other stories.

How do I talk to my boss about being more present (boss is never in office, has “too many” emails, never answers his phone) without being seen as insubordinate?

I have a CD that gets extremely flustered when you ask them for their opinion on a solution. For example after showing them multiple color pallets and CD not quite liking any of them (real Goldie locks moment) i suggested why not we do (fill in three colors here), the CD freezes up and gets annoyed because they don’t want to say yes or no without seeing it in front of them. Working on tight turn arounds and a cd who is too busy for meetings it proving tough with remote working. Any tips?

Working with a Junior AD who’s too opinionated & doesn’t respond to my feedback well. He’ll just show ideas that I’ve already debunked/scripts that aren’t very good, which makes me look bad. Advice?

I have a new manager working with me who is surprisingly not great at the role. We’re in industry and she’s worked at the company for a long time but in a different capacity. (Cont)

How do you handle people who deny climate change and global warming? It happens way more than I'd like it to when I tell people what I do for a living. I used to ignore it, but I want to start clapping back at them.

Now I'm in a client location, My manager is a good person but he told me, I should report to Lead.

Lead is a psycho. He shows hell to the team members including me.
What should I do ?

I’ve just started to put my pronouns in my email signature and it sparked a great discussion with members of our team regarding the importance of making it a regular thing for everyone. :)

I started working for a new law firm, much larger than the firm I was working for previously. The main attorney that I work under had noticed some mistakes I was making (I am a NY paralegal who took this position with the understanding that they’d be teaching me NJ and NYC real estate). Anyways, the attorney decided to tell the HR manager about the mistakes I had been making. Rather than HR discussing with me, the manager told my dramatic coworker to tell me..how should I handle this? Very hurt!

I have an offer and want to negotiate

1. London base salary but I have to absorb all the expenses (train + stay)
I am thinking to negotiate to

2. home base salary and have my expenses paid for

I know that's depends on the amount I have to travel (and potentially stay) but at the moment this is unknown. Past 8 months was just twice a month + 2 nights stay.

The only thing I know is it won't be every week, the return trian ticket is about £80-100, depends I could plan ahead.

Has anyone ever lived in The habitat Powai (Mumbai) location. Can anyone tell how's it?

Hi Fishes
What does designation lead rep quant analysis means.

Apartment hunting in LA… having a bit of sticker shock. did everything go up? Will it go down in the fall??

My boss refuses to take my advice and update our website, which is stuck in the 2010s. Why hire a marketer if you won't allow any changes to our marketing?

anyone invested into Facedrive (FDVRF)?
Recently heard about the company and it looks very interesting... curious to hear your thoughts if you have any!

Let's compete! What's the craziest fake news you've heard so far and how many relatives of yours believed it?

I have 6.8 YOE in compliance as financial analyst. how much CTC can I expect in UBS If applying for AO level.

Mr. Manager is posting again y'all 🤡

I think Cannes and the other awards are overrated and should be eliminated.

I only focus (obsess) on the bad parts of my review, even though the rest was glowing. Why?!

Turned down a gig at Apple two years ago because I saw a lot of growth opportunities at my current company and saw the position as a step back (even though it was more money) and have regretted it ever since. Still in the same exact position at the same company I was then btw. Bad choice.

I have over 20,000 unread emails in my inbox.

Wow hate the overuse of “from a ______ perspective"

I get so frustrated and annoyed when people make stupid common sense mistakes and I think it’s starting to affect my relationships. Don’t really know what to do.

I’m about to switch jobs to my company’s main competitor and move to a new city and I’m so anxious and worried I’m making the wrong choice, anyone else ever get cold feet after signing an offer?

If everything is “asap”, nothing is “asap”

I can smell your desk from the bathroom

For everyone I reject in an interview: I secretly wish we can have a feedback session and I secretly wish you find something that fits you like a glove. And I mean it when I say it: all the best.

I make poor decisions

Tip o’ the hat to all the SVPs and EVPs who reply all “congrats team, well deserved...” to the email from the client thanking the team for sending out that banner ad expeditiously.

I left my job without having anything else lined up otherwise I would have had a mental breakdown. I’m not even in that great of a financial place, but it was my job or my sanity. I know at least three other people who, in the past few months, have left with nothing lined up. I feel like it’s something we need to be talking more about. This isn’t normal for people to be doing this right?

A recruiter just reached out with an opportunity and I got excited. Turned out to be for a company I left two jobs ago after less than a year because it was so toxic the partners laughed when...

First day back after a 10-day beach stint. Putting on pants was hard enough.

Gotta love when a client doesn’t catch their own mistakes until the final round and then asks why you fucked it up....

I think I have ADHD. I’m middle-aged. This has never been a problem for me before, but I’ve taken several screening tests and I’m scoring really high. What do I do?

Agency Idea: The Ginger Group. Redheads only. You should see our Diversity and Inclusion page!

It's freezing tonight bitter cold. I just ordered Chinese and I'm not sure if that was a shitty thing to do. I think they need to make money so if no one calls that wouldn't be good. I did tip well
