Partner invited me to come stay at his house and hang out. We’ve been working together closely for about a year, all virtual. How should I interpret this?

😂

OP - don’t overthink this. The Partner has a good working relationship with you, and is opening up his personal house and life to you. I deem this a very positive and exceptional step, that not many do. I don’t understand why people have to make everything out to be about harassment or ulterior motives. There are good human beings on this earth also, and we have to learn to embrace that. Keep us posted on how the weekend goes!

qq if you are close enough to go to their house then why have you been virtual for a year?

Avoid the curry

Make sure you ask him for his favorite wine

This post has all kinds of fukkery. Wow.

Are you both gay? Are you hoping to hook up? I don’t understand your intention of your post

Call HR

Netflix and chill.... 🤣

Partner 1 is right. It can get creepy tho.

I am seriously worried. I am doing my co-op and my supervisor is not giving me an easy time.

I feel bullied and very anxious. I am afraid she can jeopardize my visa with a bad evaluation. I have been working at midnight, on Sunday mornings but I am human, I make mistakes, she just blames me instead of teaching.

Not going to mention the firm or the engagement but heard that a senior manipulated a PBC to agree to their work paper and was curious if this happens more often than I thought. Am I naive to be in shock about this?!

Just got let go and my manager said part of it was because I was looking for other jobs. I didn't look for other jobs at work, so I'm not sure how they could have known that unless a coworker snitched on me. Is it worth it to try and find out who or should I just leave it? Can't deny that I'm seriously pissed off about it.

Is this just because I never get to work with other juniors and don’t see the mistakes they make, and that it’s relatively normal? And FWIW I went to HYS and I’ve had a clerkship so it’s not like I’m not smart
