There’s been times where I messed up at work and I totally owned up to it and made it right by letting my superior know/coming up with an action plan to get back on track. How did you recover from a big mistake at work?

I have a few interviews lined-up and wondering if it’s unprofessional to wear my nose ring on an interview? What are your thoughts?

I’m have a new theory about why juniors always feel like idiots and wanted to see if anyone else thinks this makes sense. I’m a third year, and am the most junior person all of my teams (generally me, a senior or two, and a partner or two), and I always feel like I’m messing something up. Is this just because I never get to work with other juniors and don’t see the mistakes they make, and that it’s relatively normal? And FWIW I went to HYS and I’ve had a clerkship so it’s not like I’m not smart

Happy Halloween! Who says Financial Professionals are not creative? Share what you dressed up as for work today?

I posted this somewhere else before I remembered that I am in this bowl :) so, I changed jobs 6-7 months ago and I am realizing it is not a good fit. Leadership seem to not want to hear the truth so people tell them what they want to hear and if you don’t middle management gets pissed at you. I am seriously thinking about looking somewhere else. My question is how do you answer the “why are you looking to leave” question without bad mouthing your current company?

I’m starting to work in the IB division in NYC soon. Was wondering what’s the dress code in the office. Would Business casual be fine?

I have a wee crush on one of the partners in my firm and I thought he liked me too, but neither of us did anything about it (which is entirely appropriate). That was all pre-Rona. Now I’m leaving the firm and pursuing another opportunity and staying in the same city. Since he’ll no longer be my boss, is there a way to find out if my feeling was correct? How should I go about this? (Especially given Rona?)

When is it OK to ask for a partner swap? I've been working with a super fun Jr. AD for four months, but I feel like I'm pulling most of the weight + that we aren't bringing out the best in each other.

I have a crush on my counsellor at work. She's much older but still really gracious and beautiful. Should I go for it or is this a bad idea?

I have a virtual interview with Tesla tomorrow for an internship position. What should I wear? This would be first internship, so I’ve never interviewed for a position like this and am not sure how to dress (especially given it’s virtual). Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Invited to a recruiting/networking session for an analyst level role at a Bain Capital. Excuse my naivete, but is business professional (full suit) the expectation here? Unfortunately my only well fitting suit was torn recently so trying to see if I can get away with another outfit

How do youbset boundaries with coworkers. I feel like they won't figure out how to do stuff then I figure it out for them.

My boss in my creative agency threatened to fire me because I, a male, came into work with my nails painted. HR is having a very complicated day today as I found out I could take legal action if he does fire me since we don't have an established dress code that has any guidelines against male nail polish wearing.

Team is already talking about eating hours. My utilization is down cause I was in unassigned for a month in Dec/Jan. What's worse pissing off the partner or having a low utilization? -staff 1

Need suggestions: So I joined this bank and I was loaned to a different director in my team due to some long term leave for one of his SMs and audit with my director was deferred. The idea was that I would be involved in Fieldwork and take over reporting part. Issue is that I just despise the way this other Director is working. He would assign a task, and then start following up the very next day. And then after I send the document, he won’t even read that for a day!! Contd in comments

I've worked with the partners I report to, but not so much outside of my practice group. Is it normal for an associate to request a partner to do something or request information?

Has anyone changed their pronouns at work before? How did it go?

Shooting an email to HR doesn't seem right 😅

My coworker brought a puppy to work, who bit my hand. I ended up losing my temper and yelling at them. Now everyone is mad at me for blowing up at work, even though this is something I shouldn't have had to deal with in the first place!

Hi all,

My boss makes jokes about me being from a different country whenever there is a work meeting or a gathering with coworkers, even though he knows where I am from. This usually occurs when I meet new work-related people or for example if I am in a situation that involves ethnic related subjects.

What is this? This is normal?

Stereotyping?
Racism?

The first time I ignored that, but now it has become a pattern and is bothering me now. I am south-American working in the UK.

How do you guys tackle the situation where employers asks for immediate joiner.they don't even give us a chance to get evaluated technically.
Do you guys go ahead with any foul play like even if your notice period is 60 days but you tell them that you can join within 30 days

I'm not going to get back 5 hours of my life.

Seeing how the environmental problem is growing in the world and nobody is doing anything to stop the pollution of the big nations (China, USA, Russia), it makes me think as a mathematician that our days are numbered.

Wondering how electric vehicles are going to change the teamster business and it's kind of got me worried. We are going to need a LOT of charging stations and I just can't see it happening

For every Logistics Manager:
What are the top 3 red flags when evaluating hiring a new provider?

Is it possible to find a six-figure job right out of college? How long did it take you to start earning that kind of salary?

Most of my family members think all I do is write addresses on boxes and toss them in the mail. Is there anyone else who has this problem? It feels like people think of logistics as unskilled labor

We've been using Excel to keep track of our inventory but it's becoming more difficult as we grow. Are there any tools out there that can help me automate this process?

For those in the SCM industry, what is your job title and your daily responsibilities?

Hello, looking for a bit of advice. I have applied to about 30 positions in the last two weeks and have not gotten any interviews. I have 7 years of military supply chain experience, plus a year and a half outside of the military. I am an inventory control manager currently, and have applied to positions like demand planner, supply chain manager, supply planner, and other manager positions. Any advice on how to correct my job search?

Truck drivers! What is the weirdest thing you've seen while out in the road?

Is it actually safe for my manager to ask me to drive my truck in the winter? I normally wouldn't mind since I've done it before, but this particular guy just told me to "drive slow" instead of providing me with the necessary safety measures to avoid accidents.

Saw this in another bowl so thought I’d do one here 😅

I was tasked with finding a new Vendor Management System and Inventory Management System. I am curious as to what other people are currently using and the pros and cons that are associated. Any info would be helpful.

Looking to get advice on two different job offers. I am only concerned about long term career prospects in choosing one or the other. Offer 1: warehouse manager for a beverage company. Offer 2: material distribution manager for an industrial equipment manufacturer. Again, only want input on future opportunities that each might provide. Thanks!

I’m struggling with the automation tasks I’m given (primarily Excel) but don’t exactly know what programming skills I’m missing to go learn them.

Knowing what you know now, would you still have entered the industry?
