Not relevant or important at all, but just wanted to share! I got my bf the framed NYT crossword from the day he was born, and he loved it (he’s a big puzzler). Ordering a Perd cameo for my friend who loves Parks & Rec. Was in a bit of a creative funk during quarantine but back to channeling my inner Leslie Knope...😅

What is the best gift you’ve ever given? Received?

Such a great gift idea!! My favorite gift I’ve given was a scrapbook collab by me and some friends for a mutual friend’s bday. We were all studying abroad in Australia so we included pics of our travels, stories behind the pics, and handwritten messages from our friend group. It was towards the end of our study abroad semester, so it was a very nice gift and keepsake for her. So much fun to work on and to see her reaction when we gave it to her 😊

How did you secure a copy of the newspaper from the exact day? Or did you find an archived version online and print? My boyfriend would LOVE a gift like this

NYT Store has them - in addition to some other fun personalized options 😊

I wrote a book about our family history for my dad's 60th birthday. It brought him to tears especially reading about his parents and his childhood memories with his siblings.
I also bought myself a Pawnee t shirt lol 😂

Hi everyone! How did you discuss with your boss all the time you’d be needing to take off for appointments? My boss absolutely hates when people take time off. Company policy is at least a week ahead of time - she says she needs at least 2. Also when someone requests off a couple days in March then a couple days in April for example, she gets annoyed and says they are requesting too much time (even if they have plenty of PTO available).

Hi everyone! I am in a weird situation right now that I haven’t been in before and could really use some advice especially from women who might have faced or seen something similar.

However, once I started working on the project, it became very clear that I’m in the wrong team and on the wrong project (continued below)

I tried to renegotiate so she brought it down to $115. Does this seem fair? Looking for other perspectives
