United following delta in matching elite status into January 2022 https://thepointsguy.com/news/united-extending-elite-status/amp/

I know there are multiple posts about this but I still can’t think of the right way to play United Wholesale Mortgages. Too nervous to sell covered calls with the ex div date and high OI for calls in March. Anyone considered averaging down?

Planning a trip to Rome and Naples with day trips to Tivoli and Pompeii. Is 1 week enough? I feel like reading through 3/4 day Rome and 2 day Naples itineraries, the trip seems rushed. I have unlimited PTO but my SO is limited in time (but luckily he can work extra hrs and then use less PTO). I would say max we could do is 1.5 weeks but adding on 3-5 more days seems almost too much? Thoughts? For reference, I did Venice-Florence-Rome in a week and it seemed okay but it also wasn’t as planned out

Any thoughts on the JW Tucson Starr Pass Resort right now? We had booked a trip to get away from the snow but it looks like it’s half shut down right now.

Hey hey all

What do you hate about BigLaw?
I actually love it. I was a paralegal in BL during law school. Maybe I am use to the environment? What am I missing? Help me remove the rose colored glasses. The cases are interesting, pay is fantastic, offices are beautiful, and the research resources are a big reason why I never want to leave. Sure there are partners/senior associates that don’t respect you or your time. That happens everywhere and would mean you need to move firms or sections. What am I missing?

Deloitte peeps. Just saw a posting for Investment Management & Real Estate Sr. Consulting role. How are the state of things. Are they actually hiring or keeping the pipeline warm?

I've never worked on anything for TikTok and hope I never have to. TikTok is from hell. I was on it one time for about 10 minutes and could feel myself becoming mentally unwell in just those 10 minutes. The human brain is not designed to deal with the sheer amount of sensory overload that app gives you. I'm pretty sure TikTok is one of the main reasons we are constantly hearing about how much Gen Z struggles with mental health.

Hello Respected Novartis fishes,
I don't want to sound repetitive but do we have any updates on the hiring process re-opening?

Newbie trader here - I understand the theory of options but what is the best way to understand / pick an actual platform to use as the decision tool to perform the trades? Not sure if I’m asking the right question, but what I’m trying to say is when I get to an actual site to make a trade I get intimidated so just wondering what everybody uses / what is your actual process method?

First day back in industry! Wish me luck! ❤️

Recently started a new project, everyone’s remote, handful know each other, most know no one. Few newer hires. I want to set-up some kind of laid back happy-hour w/out work but I’m failing to find a way to make that happen with 10ish people and I am trying to avoid the mandatory fun vibe. I’d like to get to know these folks, and welcome in the newer ones, but I’m not sure how to proceed(without it being kind of lame).

Anyone here use vision boards? I haven’t but considering it.. what’s your experience?

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed? Personally I am happy and love the work but fear for my career progression.

A reminder to all: we are going through very difficult times. Please help someone who has gotten laid off if you can!
