[Serious] I just opened my Snapshot and have found out that I am now my own Relationship Partner. Is it possible for me to troll before HR fixes this? I really don’t care about consequences.

If anyone was curious as to what I did today. My first act was to deliberately not answer any of my emails. Then I went and played golf with a client and sold them on a LOAD of tax reform consulting work (I’m not even in tax lol).

The only problem is I gave some pretty aggressive timelines and an unrealistically low budget (don’t worry, we’ll get em when they don’t deliver PBCs on time).

I just need a few PwC Volunteer managers to make do the A&Cs/SOWs for my review. If no one volunteers... I’ll just pick a few of the over booked managers that everyone says does a good job.

Also, I’ll consider facilitating anonymous GPS result discussions at every level. Just fill out your notes in a Google Doc so I can figure out who’s talking shit by viewing the edit history.

Thanks!

Real advice: don’t waste your time playing around with it. It would not be professional.

Some partners are so stupid. In a free market system, if you want the good associate to work for you, you need to be a nice person. Otherwise, I have enough partners to feed me work and you’re the source of your own problem.

Since you all are wise, I have a question, not really a confession though…but I will add a confession at the end..

If you submit to a specific role at a large company and they reject you for the role you applied, would you still be on file if there are other roles that are a match? Or, do you have to apply to each role? I am thinking it is the latter.

Confession question…how often do you stalk exes or people you used to work with? Like someone will come to mind and I will immediately (cont)
