Starting a brand NEW job vs. going back to my old job after maternity leave! It's almost been a year since starting and I never thought I would make it with all the life changes happening at the same time.

My 3 adult sons 30, 28, 25 😳
I have a good relationship with all three, they include us in their lives (to a degree, obviously lol), which is wonderful (teenage years were tough/brutal- on and off). And, they all have good jobs, 2/3 have a 4 yr degree, and they’re all doing really well in their own way. And, I’m proud of myself for biting my tongue…like every other day lol

I find myself in workshops and meetings, groups of 15-20 people, and I’m always the only woman. In my entire department, there are no other women.

Hello!

I am being tapped to translate documents at work. I’ve done spot translation audits, and 1 larger Quality assurance document earlier this year, but was recently contacted about a potential large-scale translation initiative for next year.

Has anyone been compensated for these sorts of projects that would be “out of scope” for their role? How do you go about asking for compensation? Have any of you spun out and created translation service side-gigs?

In honor of National Voter Registration Day, The New Yorker released the transcript of a previously unpublished interview with James Baldwin, who gave a first-hand account of "Freedom Day 1963," a Black voter-registration drive in Selma, Alabama. Baldwin's descriptions from that day are so vivid and detailed that you can feel the fear and anger of the event. If you have a couple of minutes, I highly recommend you read it.

Do you think diversity training actually works? I can't tell if it's just a way to tick a liability box or if it's actually effective.

Hi all,

My boss makes jokes about me being from a different country whenever there is a work meeting or a gathering with coworkers, even though he knows where I am from. This usually occurs when I meet new work-related people or for example if I am in a situation that involves ethnic related subjects.

What is this? This is normal?

Stereotyping?
Racism?

The first time I ignored that, but now it has become a pattern and is bothering me now. I am south-American working in the UK.
