Shady story: Hello all, I posted on this bowl and got reached out to by a VP who said that he works at Alix Partners. We had a good conversation so we decided to exchange pictures. I sent him my picture first and he refused to send his picture and ended up ghosting me. This was a very scary experience as I took the risk of revealing my identity and he didn’t even have the balls to say that he wasn’t interested lol. Ladies, please be careful. Don’t do what I did.

OP sorry to hear that happened.
The rule of thumb should be the guy should lead with whatever specifics he is interested in finding out -whether it is age, location, pics, firm name, etc. Interacting with women who are more susceptible to unruly behavior by some men under anonymity, it is basic courtesy for good men who are interested in connecting to do their part and not put the onus on women for disclosure and be a coward afterall

Men or women, it’s a common courtesy to communicate if not interested. Ghosting after seeing someone’s picture that was shared in confidence shatters the confidence and faith. Such a discouragement.

OP - I am sorry you had to go through it. Well, I have had a similar experience with a girl from McKinsey. I do not agree that men should lead. People should have basic courtesy which unfortunately, not many do.

I’m glad I’m not the only one, a McKinsey girl ghosted me here too

Unfortunately, I had similar experiences a while back with a girl. I guess ghosting is a coward act. Doesn’t hurt being upfront with someone. Sorry to hear OP.

So, I just fired my first employee as a manager and I'm heartbroken. He was a great, great person but after 6 months on a PIP he just wasn't cutting it skills-wise. I know he was the provider of the household and his wife didn't have a job since she was raising three young ones. Needless to say, I had to take off because I felt terrible, sick to my stomach. How do you deal with firing guilt? Is that a thing? I can't help but feeling like I did something wrong.

How long after a failed transfer does your stomach and body feel like it’s back to normal? It’s been a little over a week since I got the news that my transfer a few weeks ago didn’t work. But my stomach is still so pooched out and looks pregnant that it makes me cry knowing that’s not the case. Trying to eat clean, tons of long walks, but still feel really bloated and gross.
