Pretty sure the guy next to me on the plane is reading every single word of the delta sky mag. He's deliberating on pages for fat freezing and hair plugs. Neither of which he needs.

Alright, Elon Musk, SNL. Is DOGE mooning or tanking?

30M, up for chat!

Does anyone have experience travelling in or out of Heathrow over the last month? Got a trip booked and wondering what the border restrictions are like/ what documentation is needed for showing reason for travel (if any)

31/m/oh straight and looking for fun

Sweet and salty 47 yr old single female. Looking for a funloving, occasional companion to divert attention to fun things from the daily travails in consulting. 🍿🍫

Gay men think having a muscular body makes up for a mediocre career, lack of emotional or intellectual depth, and think they can pull dudes that have it all. Think again scrub 😌

Woman I went on one date with keeps me informed on what she's doing. I.e. Seeing her girlfriend or on her way to a birthday party. Not used to this level of transparency after just one date. We do have a second date planned. Thoughts?

Can someone confirm if Marriott does not give complimentary breakfast with a points booking? Booked with 25k points and was told no complimentary breakfast..

35 Single male, in DFW area, looking for female for fun and companionship. I love eating good food, traveling, Reading books.

What are some exits that provide similar pay and intellectual demand to consulting without the travel? Mostly finance paths like IB? PE?

Do men in their 30s actually want to settle down and get married? It seems like most are pretty happy with their single lifestyle. Asking as a 26F who is looking for commitment if I should even bother

One of my average looking friend was complaining that they are tired of dating ugly people.

Has anyone been offered a status buy-up for 2021. ~$1700 short of United 1k this year and think my travel will increase a good bit starting next year. Think it could make sense, especially given the 2021 thresholds

What are you currently looking for? Like the answer below so we can get an idea of what sort of relationships, entanglements, hookups, etc, people are looking for in the bowl.

I matched with a guy and we initially agreed to meet for the first time this coming Friday. Last Wed, he sent two messages on the app with suggestions but I wasn’t able to text back until Sat because I was traveling. He unmatched me. Am I in the wrong here? How often do you text people in the talking stage? (F in early 30s here)

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.

Had a second date planned for tonight, she text me this morning and has a high fever! Should I send a care package?

Should I start us off with the first question? Favorite player outside the big 3:

Hi Fishes,
Please share your reviews about BOLD Technology Systems,Noida.How is work life balance and work culture?

Thoughts on potential business ideas or investment opportunities where I can live the life I deserve now and not in retirement? I’m always trying to think of potential business ideas and come up with nothing. As far as interests, it doesn’t matter what it is. As long as it makes money I’m interested.

Would anyone think it’s weird if someone has a squat rack in their bedroom or office? The past couple days I have been thinking about getting one of those models that folds up against the wall so I can save time commuting to the gym, dealing with crowds, save money in the long run, etc., but I live in apartment so I don’t have a garage to put it in.

EY feels kinda...cheap. Are the other B4 like this?!

Republicans... in hindsight, do you think it was a political miscalculation to have Pence on the ticket? Seems to me it would have been advantageous to have someone firmly in the Trump camp - like Alex Jones - as his VP to galvanize the base and put more daylight between the Trump ticket and Biden’s mainline political position. Thoughts?

How often do you buy/update your laptop? Just went back to freelance and don’t want a repeat of my last freelance round where I ran into issues with my computer being too old/slow. Currently have a 2015 Mac Pro

A campaign my partner and I thought of went into testing, but died in the process. Same idea, concept, name and execution used on another client/ campaign just a month after, that we weren’t on. Few people from the old team were on this new campaign. We’re disappointed about it and wondering if this is a common thing that happens?

ATTENTION!! I’m looking for creative directors (art and copy) to work on some pretty amazing clients with our R/GA California office. Whether you’re solo or partnered up, I want to talk to you. And if that’s not you (right now), point your friends in my direction ☺️ 👏🏾☺️👏🏾

Hi Fishes,

l interviewed for Deloitte (India not USI) in January, and accepted an offer letter with DOJ of 25th April, later HR asked me to join on 11th April for which I agreed.

We’re in such a vicious business. You give your heart & soul to an agency, a client, a brand. Then the wind changes & you’re laid off, reassigned, chewed up, spit out, on to the next. I’m tired.

Any creatives impacted by Forsman Bodenfors layoffs? That agency does beautiful, powerful work.

Anyone else want to see the Zoom servers utilization superimposed on top of the COVID infection rate? Assuming they are eerily similar.

Just fired my therapist. Feels better than it should

Why do some people get laid off and others not? Is it always utilization? Do people typically know they're at risk before it gets to that point?

I just found out that people bill more than 8 hours in a day to help with utilization (ie. submitting 8.5 or 9 hours as a standard day). Is this common practice?
