New to New York City! Would appreciate anyone sharing interesting organizations that you are engaged in? This will help me meet people. I’m in my early 30s.

Find the church in your faith with the largest young adult group.

If you have a hobby like running there is the NY Roadrunners. There are groups for every hobby.

If you care about a certain thing, like housing there are groups like Habitat For Humanity.

If you are into tennis racquet sports golf whatever there are groups for that.

So start with what makes your heart and spirit sing and go from there (and yes there are all kinds of choirs and music groups also)

I’m not part of it but junior league might be a good option if you are a woman who enjoys volunteer work!

Ugh not in NYC unless you like uptight wannabe socialites. I came from Chicago chapter where it was just normal humans wanting to meet people and volunteer and then in NY realized very quickly it was only very wealthy or wealthy adjacent women who want to pretend they’re the next UES queen bee. The dues here are also $700 or $900, I can’t remember (vs $200 in Chicago).

Help. There’s this homeless person sitting outside and have been yelling and cursing for the last 30 mins. He scared a lot of people, including me. Can I repot him? He seems like he’s having mental issues for sure

Boston Consulting Group

What will the project dynamics be on a project staffed with 3mdps, a PL, and myself, a summer UG intern? Just got staffed and will be hearing more on Monday from the team, but it came across as an interesting staffing composition.

Have the feeling I'll be making quite a few slides as the only junior. Anyone staffed on a similar case composition?

Saw someone asking about high-rise apartments in Mott Haven earlier. Just moved into a new apartment building here and honestly it’s not as bad as I thought. New buildings are safe and pretty spacious (relatively speaking). Downside is not really much to do around this area and food delivery is not great. Hope this is helpful for any one who is looking at this area.
