Soft shell carry-ons should be banned. They're ugly and people overpack them. You're an adult, get your overstuffed turquoise bag out of here.

People who have ridiculous opinions about things that are none of their business should be banned. You’re an adult, leave other people alone and stop judging them for stupid bullshit reasons.

3rd best thread on fishbowl, behind the Deloitte reply all chain and the Deloitte track suit thread. There is nothing better than really smart people savaging each other.

Wtf is is wrong with you “Burger”? I take a 2X1 on Monday morning. And I hate waiting for 10 - 15 Mins in the Jet-bridge to get my F bag. If you have a problem stfu.

My wife was a flight attendant... They travel even more than you. Pilots and flight attendants sport the soft shell carry-ons... Typically they must be conservative black/darker in color.

Curious to hear what your superior carry-on luggage recommendation is vs the travel industry.

Alright fish, so I'm from a non-target school for consulting, for reference my school typically sends a couple to the Big 4 federal practices and FDD but definitely no MBB front office. Is there any way in hell I can break into some type of non-strategy role at a Big 4 firm with a B4 audit background and industry experience?
