So… there is now a delta plus variant. Why is no one concerned?

Is anyone spending an abundant amount of time evaluating and tracking quarantine cases, attending internal Covid updates and other tasks associated with Covid at work ?

At what point during the day do you stop drinking coffee/caffeine?

Want to give myself a hard cut off. Have been having issues with sleep since starting adhd meds…

What do you all think about the new vaccine?

Hi Folks. Recently moved to Toronto. Would you have recommendations for dentists in the downtown area ? or a way to find recommendations/reviews for dentists around me? Looking to do a routine checkup/cleaning..

Report is out. Medical Care Practitioner was the top suggestion followed by Physician Associate. Praxician was, expectedly, widely panned. Let the debates begin....

Rejected by google. Very depressed as was hoping to escape big4 consulting esp with all these h1b crap going on. Unsure of next move- hate going again on the interview treadmill which is depressing

New York folks:
Are you aware of the CPA exam credit extension to 2021 for NY CPA candidates impacted by COVID19? It’s on a person-by-person basis and you need to request the extension. Has anyone tried doing this yet? Can anyone shine more light on this? The extension would really help me, but I’m not sure what more to tell them in my email than the fact that I couldn’t sit for the exams this Spring/Summer due to test centers closing in NYC.

Is there a specific reason why Siegfried does pre-employment drug testing? I've never seen a professional services firm do this and weed is already legal in my state

Anyone switched from consular processing to change of status to activate their H1B? If yes, could you pls share when and how(i.e. if you had a ppmd looped in) you reached out to the law firm. My worm authorization is set to expire in 6 months and travel to home country is risky..

Settling a debate- is it unethical to tell your confused, alcohol detox patient (who is violent and threatening staff over liquor) that the mix of apple juice and ginger ale you are handing them is angry orchard? Yes, the pt did calm down and laughed when he learned what his mocktale really was a few days later. Yes, this is a Wisconsin hospital.

Any book recommendations for philosophy, psychology, and business? Or any book you read last year changed your values? Going to fly international, gonna read it on flight. 😍

The number of players that got COVID during the international break is a shame.

How does delta upgrades and waitlist work? Do all medallions check in 24 hours prior to boarding? What determines who gets what?

People at EY not use the corporate card? The expense system is horrible. But might not be worth using my Marriott card...

I think I need to see a therapist because I actually miss the Firm now.

Hi everyone, I’m in need of prayers. My mom was admitted into the hospital recently, but they just found some nodules in her lungs. Their default diagnosis is cancer, and she does have a past history of colon cancer. Please keep her and my family in your prayers. Nothing has been finite, but I can’t help but prepare for the worst & hope for the best. The only thing getting me through this is my faith in God. I do hope this message encourages you to hug your loved ones a little tighter tonight ❤️

Anyone down for a coffee or a walk? I’m a writer who moved here one day prior to the lockdown in February and I’m done with working all by myself.

How do you know when dependence turns into addiction? Where’s the line?

Hello, hoping for some input on how to time a job change. At a startup - we are doing well now but unless we have complete turnover in management I don’t think we have a bright future post-COVID. I could coast here 1-2 years before having to look. I’ve been here for a little under a year. This is my second in house job after 10 years at the same firm. The market is hot now, probably won’t be in 1-2 years and I am getting interest for good roles. OTOH I don’t want to look like a job hopper.

Other ADs who have transitioned to WFH, what equipment do I absolutely need in my at home workspace? And how should I bring it up?

When a new type of project comes in and you get assigned as the PM to “figure out” the project plan, how do you go about resource allocation? Sometimes I struggle to know what the team configuration should even be, because we’ve never done said project type before. It’s hard to know what type of people should be assigned, and at what % time, when there isn’t a preexisting process or work breakdown structure for the deliverables I’m being handed to “manage.” How do/would you handle?

I have been thinking about using my spare bedroom to earn some extra money. Has anyone tried renting out a room in their home on Airbnb? Is the money worth the effort?

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

Is a New York Sports Club Elite Membership worth it?

I have a fully furnished 1 BR apartment with a large private terrace with grill, reclining sun chairs, lounge chairs, and outdoor 6 seater table in Midtown East available for month-to-month rental.

I am asking for $3k/month (which is lower than what I pay), but am flexible depending on interest.

Building: full service, door man building with elevators and laundry. The building gym is also open using an online appointment system.

For those using Fios, do you rent the Fios router or do you use your own? Trying to decide if using a non-Fios router is just as good

Just negotiated my lease down another 5%. Went down 4% last year too. Probably means I could’ve pushed harder last year, but still nice.

Can someone who takes CBD tell me if they actually feel a difference? Or is it all a placebo effect?

I’m trying to break my lease. I have notified the management company of my intent to do so in writing. They are just refusing to respond and keep ignoring my follow-up emails. Do I have any recourse? Can they physically bar me from leaving?

PS: I have legal cause for being able to break the lease and I know that there is zero legal recourse they have.

Posted about this a while back but didn’t get a definitive response. I have a bunch of Manhattan prep GMAT books from the past few years that have little to no writing in them. There’s probably 20 of them so pretty heavy but I’m looking to give this away to someone for free. Only thing is I asked for you to take all of them versus just a few. I live in downtown Manhattan near the stock exchange and hoping to give by the 24th. Thanks!

First time renter - what paperwork do I need ready to go to lockdown an apartment in this market. Everything is going very quickly and I want to have everything I need to help my chances. Guarantor paperwork, bank statements, etc.?

Good bars in Midtown West / UWS to watch finals today?

Any thoughts on 30th and 7th as an area? Had to do a virtual tour of a future apartment that I liked but can’t get a sense of the vibe. Trade off is More room + newer finishings at the expense of living in a hip residential neighborhood. Any red flags?

Is task rabbit the best way to move single piece of furniture within Manhattan? or do you have any other recommendations?

Why is gentrification portrayed as bad?

What is everyone’s take on the NYC housing market? More people and businesses are moving out. I’d imagine it has to continue to dip. Also, they’re considering turning adding more units by converting commercial space into residential space. Inventory is going to be through the roof for rentals. I’d think that has to ultimately impact home prices.

What’s up with the lack of apartments available? Have been watching street east for weeks and have seen a steady decline from 400 to 150 (based on my budget/location preferences)

How are NYers without preexisting conditions getting the vaccine? Are people showing up at the end of the day and hoping there are shots left? Where are y’all going to try?

Any recommendations for worthwhile smaller local charities? My firm is allowing me to donate a pretty sizeable grant ($5k) and would like to put it towards a NYC charity that helps communities in need, especially those where that amount will make a big impact.

Hey everyone! Do you have any moving companies you would recommend?

Max you would spend on a condo/apartment with about $1.5M NW and 500-750K income? No kids so no fixed costs currently for childcare and school though could see those emerging in the next five years. Otherwise pretty low key lifestyle with maybe a few meals out a week. Interested in hearing both from a purchase price and rent perspective. Thanks!
