Partner wants me in office to “collaborate.” Partner is too busy to discuss any questions I have on anything when I’m in office.

I have a coworker who is in the same position/level as I am on the same team and sometimes we split up work on certain projects, but then they act really really competitive. I don't feel the need to fight over things or go head-to-head and I just want to avoid it. I feel like if I bring it up then it will start something worse. What do I do?

Personal question for those of you in criminal law. I am in the process of hiring a nanny and recently ran a background check on my top candidate. An incident showed up on her criminal record from 1999 but it did not give any information as to what the charges were.

Was a bit caught off guard this week when I received notice that I was not moving forward in the interview process for a position in-house after being asked to apply by the person hiring and subsequently told I would move forward to the next stage b/c they were very interested in me.
