Random question - cute entry level analyst keeps inviting me out for drinks with her and her friends. Please tell me it’s a bad idea. That it is a really bad idea and that it’s not worth it. Btw I’m her counselor…

Don’t do it. She gets away with not knowing better and being inexperienced. You, however, will risk career and personal reputation for being the creepy guy in power prowling the young newbies for very little gain, if anything at all. Stop here. Do not pass go.

She should know better than to put you in that awkward position. You would be in breach of the laws that govern your Counselling credentials. It IS a bad idea and it's definitely NOT worth it.

I have a direct report who is smart, passionate about her job and can be really innovative. However she carries this enormous weight of responsibility, for needing to do everything, do it right, make sure it's perfect, not trusting colleagues to help. It creates dread and panic and overwhelming workload and a terrible attitude for her and I am speaking with her this week to start to shift her mindset. Any tips in navigating how to let go of this heavy idea of "responsibility"?

I went through my gf’s phone and found out she had a crush on my best friend when we first started dating (over a year ago).

So I just recently got into dating after a break up 3 months ago. I joined some dating apps and have been getting quite a few matches.

Like I’ve been on a few and it’s been just talking but I guess I have no clue what to do after. I’m probably just rambling at this point but basically I need advice on actual dates and how to feel it out and what to do. Ty

I’m a new associate working for a well-known defense attorney in my state. On one hand, I’m thankful for the opportunity to learn from one of the best, but he also excoriates and belittles me for my mistakes. Any advice on how much it tolerable? I am here to learn and advance my career but he can be pretty nasty. (My mistakes are no worse than you’d expect a 1st year associate to make, in case you’re all wondering if I’m a major screw-up who deserves it) I leave work feeling a foot tall.
