Extending unemployment benefits will do that. Your taxes are paying for them to chill at the pool. April job openings hit 9.3M. Time to get back to work

Giant companies colluding to artificially suppress wages for workers is the antithesis of a ‘free’ market. Once the extra unemployment benefits fully go away we’ll get much closer to a free market on wages

Could also be the case that they work swing shifts

Hey, seeking some help.

I've been asked to walk through a financial model I built as part of case study round for an Infrastructure investor. The model works fine for the inputs they provided but would get stuck when any input in the model is changed and I'm afraid the interviewer has figured that already and will specifically ask what's wrong.

I am unable to find any bugs with the code or why the model wouldn't work. How do I address it and not sound like a complete dumbass to them?!

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
