Pregnant mamas, how many of you are abiding to your RTO policies during pregnancy? And if you’re not following it to a tee, have you been given any warnings or are they understanding because you are pregnant? Expecting my 2nd and this pregnancy is definitely taking a bigger toll on me than the 1st one did. Nausea is worse, frequent migraines, fatigue… I just can’t imagine consistently going in 3 days a week. Curious if others experienced more leniency during this period from their employers.

Have any of you ever passed a drug-test despite your so small intake?
Is is harder to pass in US than any other developed countries?

How do you motivate yourself to get out of bed when you’re having an anxiety attack and just want to curl up under the covers?

My psychiatrist today revealed to me that I may have ADHD, still a hypothesis that he is still exploring but from my personal experiences and discussions with therapist, it seems likely.

One example of personal experience is my ongoing prep for case studies as I'm interviewing with a number of firms. I do struggle to keep focus and generally take a bit longer to finish them, specifically the structuring of the case. Does anybody else feel the same way and any recommendations to overcome this?

I have my frozen embryo transfer next month. I just got my “schedule”. Coming in day 2 and day 12, again day16 and a few other days here and there. All I could think about was how in the world am I...

Upper body day! Injury is recovering well so was able to push a bit more. Feeling good (and tired!)

Anyone taken the GD test after having covid recently? I have my test in 10 days and I'm currently recovering from covid.

Anyone talk to a Muslim therapist? Muslim matters because I’d like to talk about marital issues, and not sure others will get the religious context. NYC preferred. TIA!

Does this benefit cover procedures such as freezing eggs?

My job just announced mental health benefits to help end the stigma: 25 therapy sessions for employee+family a year at no cost. 🍾🍾🍾

We were not trying to conceive. And I was drinking alcohol like twice a week.
Now I missed my period and pregnant. I am panicking a lot, not sure if I want a baby right now. Definitely i cant deal with pregnancy constantly knowing how much u drinking could have affected the fetus and if i could ever endure the consequences it would bring upon the baby
Help me understand if my baby will be fine or not.

I recently moved out of my apartment that had a Peloton in the gym. Haven’t gotten back into cardio like that and considering buying. Anybody have any pros/cons of purchasing?

Anyone else struggle with discipline?

I know what my goals are. I know that I need to work out and eat healthy to achieve them. But somehow I still choose to be a couch potato on my free time.


Any advice?

Alright, what's the story behind the peloton ad trainwreck?

Growing up I’ve always wondered if I had some form of ADHD since I had a lot of trouble focusing in class. Lately I’ve found myself zoning out during meetings more often and started wondering again. Can anyone share their journey on how they got diagnosed, what your first steps were, and if you used any firm resources?

Still can't get over that ER doc committing suicide during all of this

Tips for desk research heavy projects (lots of reading, processing and synthesising information): how do you do it? Are certain meds better/worse? Modafinil feels better for reading and processing info but stimulants better for focus and executing tasks.

I had an interview last week and waiting is raising my anxiety. I am on anxiety medications and it doesn’t seem to help. I don’t know why I am getting anxious as I already know I can not control the

Just realized I hadn’t had an in-person interview since 2019. I’ve done multiple zoom interviews and was onboarded remote in 2020. About to see a real person today! Wish me luck.

Hi Fishers,
I have a interview with PWC for the Global Aura technical engineer, can you advise what can I expect with regards to the work been assigned for this particular role.

So I just moved states. I’m staying with a parent for a while in a pretty large house and my cat keeps hiding for hours on end (I think to snooze). Any thoughts? She’s spent time with me and I walked around with her while she explores. And she’s ventured solo. Seemed she’s warming up well. Except this again. I admit it’s giving me horrible anxiety that she won’t respond at all until I locate her because even I’m learning where things are and want her to be safe. This is the third time 😭

Just got another rejection... Is exiting to FAANG or MB really this hard? Trying to go tech.. or mbb, but not getting anywhere. I have 2 masters (mba, ms) from top schools, been in consulting for over 10 years, I am confident that I know my stuff well..but still I keep getting rejected. Interviewed with Google, Amazon, Cisco, McKinsey, and a few others and every-time there is something that is not a match... are the hiring managers looking for like 100% match? That will never happen!!!

Anyone want to be case buddies for the next three weeks? Mostly free in evenings and weekends!

Will this cause any issues in my visa stamping now or in the future? Anyone gone through this?

First week at new firm and it’s slow. I feel like I should be doing more but haven’t been given much work. Is this normal? How long does it last? I’m probably just paranoid

-I work with embedded software development with mostly C and C++

Interviewing question: for anecdotal “tell me abt a time when..”, & similar questions - are you allowed to recycle stories from your undergrad years or do they only look for post grad/work stuff? Afraid some of the stories that sounded okay at undergrad recruiting might now come across as a bit “lightweight” in this context...like would they eye roll if we start talking about that one time we did a science competition sophomore year of college (even though it taught an important lesson)..etc.🤔
