I love my SO but get unsure....they just went on a friends trip and came back and randomly said going on another one in two weeks. I said I wanted to spend time together so they came back next morning and said let's go away just us instead, which is awesome and I am happy BUT is it a red flag? They used to always be all about spending time together and now seems like I have to remind them to put us first in the past month. We both work hard and have kids so life is more complicated. Vent over.

Working remotely for a US company but looking at moving to Canada (still keeping my US job) does anyone have experience with this? I’m assuming this would make PR trickier?

Scared to start clomid next week. I’ve already been so emotional just about starting this process overall!

Joined a call to hear “how’s my sql replication looking? Yeah,!I’m good.)

“– Pick one: purple or blue.

– I can’t do this, this is way too complicated.”

“Those glasses don’t make you look younger, they make you look older—but slightly more cool.”

So a higher up made a new rule that for a service we offer , we have to offer it to the customers three times and If they say no a manager has to get involved and document. it is this not wrong?

What's the weirdest thing anyone has ever said to you at work? One time a co-worker divulged to me that they had a collection of troll dolls that they named and sometimes still played with.

HR: I still didn’t get approval from finance on the freelance req. not answering email.
Me: FL’r already in the building. you sit in next office can you just talk to them?
HR: ok. I guess.

So, some of my co-workers simply said that they want to go ahead and start something or start looking elsewhere (career change) because they don't know how much it will last at the pace we are going in regards to case intake and pay out. Should I start panicking or simply start looking elsewhere? They even they even told me if I was looking elsewhere or planned on doing so also. I found it weird in a way.

“We had complimenting genitalia.”

"There's no whining in baseball!", said very seriously and earnestly ..... to the office dog.

Heard from me:

“Oh, junior person, you have edits to the monthly activity report 3 days after your deadline to review the report, and after I sent it to the client? How lovely for you."

“Bad news, we’ve had to eliminate the position that we were supposed to finalize your promotion to. Good news, your current position is still available and the prestige of your current role is now increased”
Not the money, not the title, bonus or anything, but oh the prestige.

I give the clients gold, but they decide instead, they want me to paint it with sh*t.

“The shaft is not always welcome, but but hole always is.”

“I get such a rush when I’m eating a taco."

On a Zoom call:
Colleague A: *begins talking*
Colleague B: *begins talking at the the same time as A*
Colleague B: "I'm sorry, A. Go ahead"
Colleague B: (said with much attitude) "No, B. You go ahead. I'm sure what you have to say is more important anyhow."
Everyone else on the call: *Stunned silence....*

I was recently promoted, and now part of my team report to me. I'm now able to see their pay rates and I am honestly so disappointed in the company. Especially since we just gave annual raises in Feb, plus we can all see where the money is going and it's not to the employees. Makes me sick

From a UX Director... “Design is everything. You’re nothing without design.” Excuse me?

What type of background check do HF/PE/VC forms so these days? Employment, education and felonies are a given (I think) but is fingerprinting and drug testing still in the mix? How about credit score?
