Sounds like it already qualifies as an independent issue. YOLO

I didn't tell him I was interested in any way, it had come up in responsibilities in walkthroughs where they have an opening and he was asking if I would be interested. I said I am not allowed to discuss opportunities for the sake of independence blah blah. The client has no idea I am considering. I have known him for years hence his enthusiasm. I just mean like an overall should I tell the client and have them tell the partner and just bail? It would be an audit nightmare but I'm at the low point of PA where I want to quit every day.

Talk to the client and see if they'd even consider hiring ?

The Director told me I would rock it during some walkthroughs

He was adamant it would be a perfect fit. Mainly worried about independence issues and timing so I don't screw my team.

You are not independent. Hopefully you're not leaving for the money

Hi! I have worked in management roles in tech, mainly in analytics, for approximately 10 years.

I now work at the CBC, but I have worked in the private sector too. What is the most realistic way to move to 200K? 1) Continue moving the ladder to a VP position, 2) Switch to Pre-Sale, 3) Switch to Consulting, 4) Work from a U.S. company from Canada.

I’ve noticed that many LGBTQ+ people make a point of “coming out” to co-workers or clients when initially introducing themselves. I’ve seen many partnered people do this by working in a casual mention of their significant other, which I’ve always thought was so clever and works even in a largely virtual work environment. As a single person though, it’s something I’ve struggled to do. What are other ways that you “come out” to co-workers and/or clients from initial introductions (or later on)?
