SO and I are separating. Looking for ways to make ends meet in terms of paying for the entire rent myself. Living in California, can I work part-time in the cannabis industry making deliveries? It’s fair to assume this needs to be reported in independence, can EY fire me for this or will this raise flags for future career developments? Im aligned to financial services within EY.

Yikes. How long do you have to pay rent for and what increase? And why can’t SO still contribute?

Sounds like a tough situation so I’m sorry to hear it.

EY don’t pay you enough??????

Get a roommate?

EY’er here. Yes needs to be reported under ‘matters to be reported’ for independence purposes as its technically a business relationship.

I sell clothes / shoes of mine on Poshmark and Mercari and needed to discloze that.

Do NOT deliver cannabis. I’ve heard of multiple people getting robbed doing so. Maybe you can be their bookkeeper on the side?

Something about me is both a curse and a blessing - I can't ignore what is not clear, logical, aligned, and simple. Even if that means that I have to work several minutes or hours extra on a document or an email. Things bother me if they aren't as expected. Unless I understand something clearly, I can't let it go. This is what helped me excel at studies. At work, my obsession makes it hard for people around me. If people complain about me, should I just let it go or change my approach?
