I'm #teamsingle and trying hard to be content with it... easier said than done.

I wouldn't say I'm overjoyed but I'm content. I've always been very independent and of the mentality that id rather be alone than in the wrong company. As the years pass, I become more of a lone wolf. I still keep my friendships, focus on my career, travel lots, and try to be a better person. I guess my solitude has just allowed me to realize that I truly don't need a SO. Would I like one? Sure, but if I don't have one it's ok because there's many other things in my life beginning me fulfillment. Also, it's so important to pick a person with good energy (to sound cheesy) - but I've been in situations where I've been too emotionally invested in the wrong person and it's draining. It's awesome to not have that negative drain. I have decided that if by age 35 (ish) I am not married, and I still want to have kids ... well, there's ways for us to do that :) I am already taking the steps to be in the right financial (and spiritual -- though this needs some work) place to do that. In short - the person I end up with needs to add to my life in a positive way (and vice versa). I will not settle down because I'm afraid to be alone. Cause I've already learned that it's not too bad :)

Have people received inflationary raises? My dad received a letter stating that they’re giving him a 6.5% raise + a one time lump sum of $750 bc of inflation, retroactive to July 1st. He works for a university and is part of a union. Kind of feel like my company is being shady because I work in CRE & we do raises + bonuses in February which was when I was planning to ask for an inflationary raise. But I feel like a lot of companies have done this without having their employees ask?

Hi ladies,
My manager is putting me up for promotion to senior level. I asked about what that means for compensation, he didn’t have an absolute answer but just said base salary will increase more than regular pay raise (hm.. okay it’s expected) but stock options won’t change. I have talked to a male senior peer before and learned that he makes about 20K more than me on base + almost double in equity. How would you suggest I utilize this information?

The team I am on is small and I know that when I leave, they’ll have a lot on their hands. I only have a couple of interviews scheduled and nothing is solid yet.
