Nearly New Bicycles in Uptown rocks. I got a vintage bike that was brand new (been sitting in a box in a warehouse for decades) for like $300. Unless you go this route you won’t really find a new bike for under $500 that will last you more than a season or two at best, you’d need to creep your budget up to about $700 ish and get an entry level Specialized or Giant or something

Village cycle for sure

Been searching for work for about 2 months now, and I can’t tell what companies are looking for anymore. I have 2+ years as an AE full cycle. And I get rejected left and right. My resume is up to date, I’m applying non stop, what else can I do?

Hi everyone,

I spent 2 years at McK in Asia, currently doing in-house strategy at a bank. I am hoping to return to consulting, targeting ME region, especially Dubai and Doha.

Exchanged some email with a McK recruiter, but haven’t heard back since I sent them my CV.

1. Is there a hiring freeze in ME at McK?
2. Is anyone willing to refer for BCG or Bain?

Tulum AirBnB recs for me (F, 40s) my brother and his wife (40s), and their kids (13 and 10)? 4 nights and need 3 BDRs and 2 or 3 bathrooms. Prefer a pool. Not into big hotel areas. Trying to explore in addition to lazy beach days. They are hipsters who traveled the US in a van during Covid and I like luxury. Something in the middle would be great 😊. Thanks for any recs!

Are there non-Europeans here that have gone through the work permit process in Switzerland that can answer a couple of questions?

I would really appreciate it.

26M been dating my girlfriend for the past 7 years. She’s basically the only person I’ve had a romantic relationship with. We just moved in together and I’m not really liking it - I feel like I’m “domesticated” and have less freedom. I’m not looking forward to the future. Instead, I’m looking back wondering “what if” around other girls, relationships, experiences, etc.

I don’t know what this means but i wanted to talk about it.

Does anyone have a referral?

Looking for referrals in Chicago. Anyone willing to look at my resume and possibly refer to your company? Preferably in Change Management.

I have a tenant who potentially had an incident with their pet and the HOA said the tenant needs to put a muzzle on their dog. The tenant is understandably upset and now wants to said they intend to get out of their lease early. As landlord I have done nothing wrong and don’t see how the person can get out of their lease with many months left for no reason. Thoughts ?
