My one and only

I am currently working mostly in Data Analytics, but I want to transition into Data Engineering. I've applied to a couple Data engineer positions but it seems I don't have the qualifications for them. Should I maybe look for Jr. Data Engineer positions to get experience and try to move up from there? If so anybody know of any Jr. Data Engineer positions available?

How'd yall do this weekend? Or hows it looking tonight?

Ya boi came out with a W!

How many physicians do we think use stimulants or other things to "get through day"

Just saw this quote from the Minari movie ads and it kinda reminded me of being in BigLaw:
“Minari grows: It comes in the pockets of immigrants, dies in the first year, thrives in the second, and purifies the water and the soil around it.”

Have you ever failed to deliver? What was it and why?

I don’t like Chicago. It seems that I will have to move to Chicago in the fall. How do I survive this

Big birthday coming up in a few months and wanting to do things I have never done before (tattoos, surgery, etc.) What have you done as a result of a mid life crisis?

Do you know what today is, today is the day I am now allowed back to office as our vaccination requirement was dropped? I still can’t go to our office in NYC and possibly some other jurisdictions and we do need to follow client rules to visit them.
Have any of other Big 4 made changes?

For someone earning 11 LPA fixed in India, is 50K Euros in Germany a good package?

Hi @all

DM if you are interested.

I've lost all motivation in my job and have done maybe 40 hours of real work since the beginning of August. I've built up a good track record the past couple years, and am good at bullshitting so people have been giving me the benefit of the doubt, but know the party can't keep going forever.

Anyone hiring those who have been out of work for a year? I took time off to tend to personal matters, but I am now looking to get back into the workforce again. My previous experience includes time at B4 audit up to senior level and then transitioned to manager in industry. Senior/manager roles are preferred.

I don’t mind audit. However, I’d prefer it not to be at a B4, as I am looking for some semblance of a work life balance.

DM me if you have something above, thanks.

Today I have officially made the decision to stop taking any and all cases that involve children. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted!! I just had to share with other professionals that understand. Yes, this will be a financial blow, but I’m fine with it.

Do you have a movie you could watch over and over again? I have a lot, but lately it’s Ready Player One and The Martian. Easily seen both 10+ times.

Any from Google Cloud looking for Customer Engineers? I passed my onsite, but currently recruiter mentioned there is not headcount to fit me in. Happy to be squeezed in anywhere at this point.

Do Nooglers receive salary increases? And if so when do you find out?

Looking to get my first luxury watch. Starting PPL training in a few weeks and with bonuses around the corner would love to commemorate receiving my license. What are some good pilots watches under 4K

How do you guys think about placing limits on your watch collection?

36mm Rolex explorer on a 7.5 inch wrist? Thoughts?

Let’s say you’re the main character of some action movie. Think military / Jason Bourne / Ethan Hunt type of guy. You’re only bringing one watch with you on your mission across the world. Streets of Paris, African jungles, Southeast Asia, and wherever else the mission takes you. What watch you wearing?

Folks - what brands (other than Ball - I already own some pieces) do you recommend if I want long lasting value and tritium gas tubes that glow so brightly thought the night?

Why would a luxury watch brand make/sell connected or smart watches? What is the business reason for it? To me it just kills the brand value. For instance I was a big fan of Montblanc but after I see their smart watch line up I instantly devalued the brand in general. Same for Tag (tag is questionable anyways), or Breitling. What is your opinion on this topic?

I write TV commercials, and since Bulova created the first TV ad, I’ve been interested in adding one to the collection. I know more about their ad history than the actual watches. Anyone have a recommendation?

Are there downsides to wearing a datejust to work, for a first year analyst ? Would you recommend against it ?

Guys please help. Trying to decide Breitling vs Omega. The models I am looking are the two below. Cost about the same.

Own a Sub 41, but getting a Hamilton Khaki Field 42 as an everyday later today! As excited as I was picking up the Sub 😍 Thoughts as an everyday watch? Will post pictures if I pull the trigger!

How long would Seamaster luminosity last on average? I put it on direct sunlight for 15 mins and then tested it in a dark room. After 8 mins it started dimming drastically. bought it from Jomashop 🧐

Speed master? Love it hate it? Looking for a well made chronograph as my next mid tier purchase

Anyone have experience with Nomos? Don’t have a lot of exposure there but a client recommended looking at them. Scrolled through their selections and loved the Lambda but it’s way out of my range.

Any suggestions for a womens watch around $1k? Looking for something to give as a gift for a close friends wedding. Appreciate any suggestions- or ideas of other good gifts in a similar price range. TIA
