How is everyone doing?

Currently sitting in my sweatpants with a full groutfit. Rediscovered a pair of blue sweatpants that I left at my parent’s place during the holidays and brought that back. Have a similarly colored soft blue hoodie that I wear with it. Now I alternate between my groutfit and bloutfit biweekly to synchronize with my laundry schedule. I go outside wearing it too. Should I be proud or concerned???

Isn’t it ironic that most of these people in FL whose homes and communities have been devastated will still deny that climate change is real and vote for MAGA Republicans?

Hadn’t noticed this sub before, and most of the threads are old so thought I’d ask a follow up - how has everyone been handling parenting with public accounting? I’ve got a toddler and my wife is an accountant (industry), and we only have a few immediate family in the country- but they have health concerns. Busy season was rough, things are looking better now as things return to normal. Still working crazy hours if you count the daycare duties on top of utilization targets.

My aunt recently passed away, leaving behind 2 young girls (16 and 12 years old). I’m trying my best to be there for them and pray for them, and have been asking people to pray for them as well. Until I started question what is the point of asking people to pray for them? I know God hears my prayers, so why do we ask people to pray ?

How challenging is strategy and planning (industry) roles? Trying to pivot but lack the actual experience. I understand it's framework and analysis driven. Been more focused on risk management, operations, program management etc. Curious to hear thoughts

Graduated with a degree in managerial science and minor in marketing and a sales certificate from a very prestigious business program in GA. Have had 4 different management positions in the past. Looking for opportunities in sales that allow me to travel constantly. Preferably base + commission but open for anything with traveling (within/out the country) anyone can help me network? Thank you!

Anyone feel general anxiety that you won’t be successful? Seems like most people climb the ladder or reach career success in some way or another but it’s pretty intimidating just starting out

What is a simple way to explain to my boyfriend that investing in equity with an expected return of 10% is better than paying off debt that is growing at a rate of 6%. He has student loans and is adamant that he wants to pay all of them off immediately before saving any retirement money. I understand that many individuals use this strategy but I think investing in index funds for the long haul is better from a wealth accumulation perspective, without even factoring in tax implications of 401k

About to be on the bench. Anyone else on the bench / how long?

How long did it take for your background check to be completed? I'm supposed to start on the 25th but still waiting for First Advantage to finish the BI. They said only my current employment verification was still pending and no other details.... how long does that even take? Wondering if I should go back and tell my current employer my start date has been pushed back a week as a precaution.

When they say utilization doesn't count for the month of May/June what exactly does that entail? I'm assuming being on the bench for those months will still show on personal utilization reports...

After seeing all these posts here, I am wondering why I have never been approached by a recruiter on LinkedIn - NEVER. I work for FAANG, previously with a large tech company, ex B4 SM, I have an MBA and MS from t25 schools in US, and 7 certificates. Have decent amount of information on my profile, a professional pic and other sections are filled as well. Looking for advice on improving my LinkedIn profile. Happy to DM and share the profile with anyone who is willing to help. TIA.
