So supposed to head out of town for a long weekend with friends starting the evening of 4/21. My one friend and her son tested positive for Covid on 4/13 and have been sick. She says she is coming on our trip. On the following Thurs 4/28 I need to spend time with my 92 year old diabetic father. Do I go on this trip? I don’t think my friend has quarantined long enough to be sitting with 6 people driving in a van to our location unmasked as well as in the hotel room. Would you go on this trip?

I'm looking for new ideas on winter cardio. This season is already getting colder than other years. I usually do outdoor jogs.

Anyone just out of first trimester struggling with sciatica pain on right side? It’s excruciating and not sure how to alleviate - I read up on some stretches?

Hey guys… I’m a case worker in child safety and I’m someone who loves being outdoors/dies at a desk all day. I’m hoping to organise that at least once a week I can go to a cafe and catch up on all my case notes that need to go into the system.
So far the only reason I’ve been told no is that “if you do then everyone will want to and then no one will be in the office” … how can I convince them that I work better out of the office and get this freedom & mental break for myself?

If I have access to both to buy through Fidelity, any reason to choose IVV vs VOO? Why do you pick one over the other?

Sooo who’s working on Pfizer’s covid vaccine?

New to UR travel portal. I keep seeing that I will get 1.5x back here -- does that mean if I have 20,000 points originally, it becomes 30,000 points in the portal? (cont.)

Switching jobs soon and will have a couple weeks at the end of November/start of December before the new job starts. Does anyone have any recommendations on a quick trip. I’m based in Chicago. Prefer international, since I’ve traveled to most places in the US. Thank you!

Hi All,
Just want your suggestion on this to help me decide.
I've been working in QA team for big data project and recently I've got offers from Startup and service based MNC as data engineer for the role of Data Engineer.
I've not worked on the actual development of ETL batches till now but I want to learn and grow gradually.

What kind of organisation would be best for me considering my mental health as well because I take too much stress ?

Thanks 🙏

Hello! What does everyone do for health insurance? Are there any unions or anything we can join to get better rates for family healthcare?

I am currently a medical biller and coder that just graduated. I am currently in an entry level position because I am still studying to get certified. I will have a year's work of exp in July and will sign a contract for another year because my boss is training me in more I don't know.

I'm wondering what the pay is for someone in my position without certification. I live with family and want to afford to move out but I am single and only make $18/hr. Is that standard or am I being underpaid?

I'm looking to get in to pharma sales and have a sales background but in medical device. Has anyone made this switch? Would you be willing to offer any advice?

I am pregnant and don’t feel pregnant most of the time. I’m only 6 weeks so have to wait awhile before any visual confirmation. And then you worry about all the ones after that before 24 weeks or so. How do you cope? I am trying to be positive. I’ve had a miscarriage before so I’m nervous as well. I try some calming meditation and things like head massages but that lasts an hour tops!!

Saw one post in Yammer USI Kolkata grp reg. Darjeeling trip during this long weekend.
Did the plan work out? If yes, photo bhejo bhailog. 🙂

Anyone here can share experience with dating/relationships and weight-gain? I am not obese, but definitely overweight. I lead a relatively healthy life but know I can do more. However, I find that my weight keeps me from socializing, meeting new people and dating. How can I improve my self-esteem?

Macro tracking & body building experts - what should my macros & calorie count be if I want to lost 10-15 lbs? I'm 142 (due to stress and hormonal changes).

I want to get down to 128lbs.

My scale's app says my BMI is 25.3 - just hitting into the overweight bar & 19.8% fat.

Used to be around 23 BMI and 18% fat pre-pandemic in 2019.

I tried the macro calculators but I'm getting mixed guidance

Folks that got a prenup. How and where did you get it? We have spoken to a couple of lawyers and it simply seems to be a back and forth they want to do to rack up billable hours/complicate the issue. My SO and I pretty much know what we want. We are doing it mainly to protect my SOs inheritance. Looking for the simplest way to execute this. TIA for any advice.

Anyone work for Wells Fargo Corporate and Investment Banking? Have upcoming interviews for two teams (industrials and healthcare) for corporate banking analyst positions and wanted to know what kind of questions to expect. Thanks!

Jump ship or stick it out? I’m a 31 y/o SFA with a Fortune 100 and am learning absolutely nothing. I have 9 years FP&A experience. All we get is busywork and no real opportunity to grow or take a more challenging role since they’re dying for SFAs. Do I stick it out for an eventual Manager role so I can be more marketable to a future employer, or try to pivot out of Finance to a new type of role and company now? Interested in more operations related work.

Can any pls share the lead position interview questions?

One issue with the work from home revolution will be the offshoring of jobs. I got laid off and my replacement will be from Mexico City. One time zone away and probably half my salary. It is what it is.

Looking for a home office chair…I need something really ergonomic/comfortable but given the visibility of the office in the house the wife wants something stylish. She keeps calling all my ideas ‘gamer chairs’ even though they’re definitely not. Anyone have any chairs they really like that may be worth looking at? I feel like I’ve looked everywhere (Steelcase, Herman Miller, humanscale, Haworth, xchair, etc).

Did you know that forced pregnancy is recognized under the Geneva Convention as a crime against humanity and a war crime? Perhaps our companies can openly take a side on the current abortion issue since it impacts many of us and our work lives. What do you think? Civil responses only please.

Those still planning on getting married in the middle of a pandemic: do you realize you may cause deaths bc of a party?

Any books/self help materials for someone who is constantly worrying (and waste a lot of unnecessary time)? E.g. No matter if i pass or fail an interview, there is always something to worry about. The worrying/anxiety multiplies when I proceeded further in the interview stages. Now that I signed the offer and is pending background checks, my anxiety is off the roof as it itches closer to my starting date.

Just got a little tipsy and impulse-bought a $2,000 82” tv. Hope it’s worth it.

6’5 here, does anyone have any recommendations on a good desk that is adjustable to a standing desk? I find that a lot of standing desks have a listed max height below 6’5

I find it disturbing that people all of a sudden think remote work = 1/2 work 1/2 care for children

Do people think working remotely will remove some gender bias in the work place? Or impact people’s perceptions of women colleagues?

Anyone actually managed to get a 3080? Damn these bots 😤

A director in another unit wants to meet me to “continue a conversation we started last year”. He is referring to the time I had asked him if there were openings on his team. That was over a year ago. I am not too happy where I am right now ( I stayed where I was). I also don’t know if he really has an opportunity or if this is just some corporate circle jerk where my current director is trying to “smoke me out”. I don’t speak poorly of my team/work. How would you approach this conversation?

Whenever anyone asks how work is going I always answer with “it’s funding my lifestyle” and they look shocked. Do you guys actually have a dream job? I can’t imagine loving work everyday for the rest of my life.
