People may think I’m dismissive, but really I’m just terrified.

Is the average freelance rate in a pandemic same/higher or lower? Wondering what I should charge in nyc right now. Pls lmk, thanks!

I'm having two 2nd-to-last rounds for non-G FAANGs this week, but I haven't heard if/when I am advancing in interviews for 2 different roles at G that I last interviewed or phone screened for 2 weeks ago. Will Google speed up if I tell them I'm in the process with another FAANG? Will it look bad if I tell G I'm advancing elsewhere but don't get the offer elsewhere?

Hello, who can help me?
I am interested in knowing how much an oilfield engineer earns. I currently have a job offer from a medium-sized company, but as a recent graduate, I don't know if the pay is adequate.

I'm an A1 and want to move to industry. would anyone be able to provide a referral to Salesforce or Slalom? I'm looking at a couple non-client facing roles there

Any data engineer opening in Pune? Can join immediately.

I’m a freelance media planner/buyer and I’m interested in being able to buy media for clients without having the media vendors bill the clients directly.
How would I be able to handle billing myself?

Welcome to the bowl. Lets keep the topic of discussion around Bristlecone and have respect for everyone

How do you all feel about D&I Reports? Do you think they’re still valuable and a stand-alone report or part of an integrated corporate message?

We’re hiring on our media & connections team. Various levels. If you’re looking to make a jump from a traditional media agency or a strategist who wants to get closer to both media and creative. Lmk.

Are you sick of tired of being sick and tired!!??

I know I am. Just like you the recent murders of two black men have done a number on me.... and I can’t just sit still with this. I wanna take action. I want to do something. Create something. Develops something that can create change.

So what is the output? I’m not sure. And that’s why I am reaching out to you all. Let’s use our talent in advertising to make something that will sway people to “PULL UP”!!! Let’s chat!! The time is now!!!!

Boyfriend threw a bottle at my laptop screen last night. Another toxic Friday night after drinking 😞

How do I start the divorce process? Do I have to get a lawyer? Help...!

How are people making the most of dating in Covid? Has anyone met someone through the apps and started dating during this time? Thought it would be a great time to find people who are looking for something serious and less distracted by a busy routine but haven’t had much luck.

My family mistreated me when I was younger, and now that I don’t live at home, they don’t call or bother to look for me, because frankly, I think they have a hard time admitting what happened - and will never apologize to me either. If I don’t call, or occasionally go see them during the holidays, we would never talk. Some of them are growing old (health-wise), and I’m scared this entire situation is just irreparable. Has anyone ever gone through anything similar? Any advice or thoughts?

Has anyone else told their religious parents that they were moving in with an SO before marriage? I did, it didn’t go super well- they disapprove of it (cont)

Reading Untamed by Glennon Doyle and I want my own Abby!!! Sigh.....

Fiancé’s milestone birthday coming up. We both love experiences and enjoy the city. Welcome all the help to make it special for her!

Men - do you try to get out of an argument/fight by pretending like nothing happened? Why so?

Is giving birth w/o the epidural really that crazy of a concept? People laugh at me when I say its very feasible...

Do you think it is easier to overcome cheating in a relationship that has or does not have children involved? Listening to an interesting podcast and would love to know peoples take on the topic

Boyfriend and I have been dating for ~1.5 years and we still only spend weekends together. I want to move in together at the 2 year mark but bf thinks it’s too soon... just feels our relationship is stagnant and not going anywhere. Any thoughts from ppl who’ve gone through similar situations?

My SO adds very little to our relationship. She has a dead end job. I cook. I work. I oversee finances. I plan trips. She doesn’t have a voice in the relationship. I’ve asked her to give her perspective but she always defaults to mine bc she thinks I’m smarter/worldly. She feels intimated by me and my social circle. Lately, I’ve found myself thinking for her. Anticipating her wants and needs and then adjusting my behavior to meet them. Which she appreciates but it’s frustrating 29M 27F

Been having trouble moving on since girlfriend ended relationship 3 weeks ago after 2+ years of dating. Before ending it she came over 3 weeks prior to basically give me a chance to work things out and we had a good discussion but then I went back into our routine and didn’t really fight for it or have serious follow up convos that we needed. Now I just have so many regrets that I let her go. I know we still love each other and left on “good” terms but can’t forgive myself for my lack of action.

Did anyone hate wedding planning? I’m constantly considering cancelling the wedding cuz I honestly can’t believe how much drama it’s causing with all family members.......

Have you ever been or currently in a relationship with someone of who’s political beliefs conflict with your own?

Not dealing with this currently have dealt with it in the past. My parents started out opposites but now believe similarly. I’m wondering if it is possible in this day and age.

Stopped a fwb situation. But staying away is so hard. 😔

My girlfriend and I have been in a long distance relationship for 8 months now. We talk every single day online and recently I went to visit her for around a month. It was great and it seemed like the relationship was stronger than ever. But one week back after visiting her, I felt a strange detachment from her and our conversation topic got repetitive and stale quick. Any advice?

This is an emotional dump rn. It may be lack of social interaction but I'm really frustrated lately. I feel like I lost last 2.5 years of my life with ongoing lockdowns and job instability in the first half of the pandemic. I was 28 turing 31. I get good dates but -ve self talk
Inflation is high & coming from a low income family where you're supposed to help your parents is driving me nuts. Although I make a good salary, after rent, car insurance, there isn't much left (unfav currency exchange)

These dating apps. ARGH! Someone “likes” you (takes the time to do that) then never messages you back. I don’t understand.

GF is 32 and I’m 28. She wants kids within 2 years, understandably. I never envisioned having kids that early (more like late 30s), but I like her a lot. Anyone else gone through something similar?
