Went to San Diego last week and have been very sick after. Is there some flu going around? Haven’t been this sick in ages.

Anyone take SHRM? How many hours did you study?

I was approached on LinkedIn for an early career recruiting role in DFW, TX. I don't have direct experience, but I have the university experience/connections from working in career services. This is the first time I've considered work outside of higher education. I said my salary expectations are minimum $90k and that didn't seem to be an issue. Am I asking too little, too much? How can I know I'm getting the best salary and not just settling at the low end of the range?

My dad who lives in Asia just announced that he had a medical issue. I’m starting to enter the age where I’m going to take care of him financially. It’s a $2,000 hospital bill which in the US is nothing compared to what it represents there (which he can’t afford). He’s going to be fine! Just wanted to share with this group as many of you can understand what it feels like to support your parents when they’re old, not the other way around. I feel so blessed I can help him. 🙏🏽

Hi , is the Gym in sab labs Bangalore opened? Also will be open on Saturdays?

I forgot to wear a mask in my apartment building common area. Ran back upstairs to get it but nervous and paranoid that I’ve been exposed. Is there anything I can do but quarantine and wait a few days to get tested? So mad at myself right now

Does anyone have any advice or insight into studying for the Sustainability Excellence Associate (SEA) certification exam? I can’t really find too much information on the test.

Accidentally read the spoilers for this episode earlier this week. Even though I knew it was coming, my blood pressure is still through the roof. So so good

For immunocompromised folks: Are you back to working at your office? And if so, what precautions are you taking in a world in which it seems most people aren’t concerned about getting COVID and then spreading it to others?

Does anyone have experience with t-mobile internet? I'm so sick of dealing with Comcast!

What do you guys think about apps like BetterHelp and Talkspace? I understand they might have real therapists working on their content, but a lot of the marketing I see is so vague and broad that it feels like a lie. Seems like "This app got rid of my anxiety with a 30-minute automated text questionnaire" is the new "This tea made me lose 20 pounds in two weeks!" Just seems a little fad-like and money grabby to me. Thoughts?

How to reduce stress? Provide real workable solutions please. Don’t copy paste google stuff!

What is the average pay for Dialysis Technicians

I have 5 YOE in Analytics... always thought I wanted to be a DS, but every job (even the junior ones) required experience in ML development. Though I am part of the ML project, I'm not the person develop the model. And I have a hard time when the interviewer ask about how I develop the model and what hyperparameters I tuned. I know the thought process and stuff but 'I' wasn't the one who did that part in the project. How to convince them that I could do the job without taking credit of others.

How do you know your value? Throughout my 10 yrs of being in a professional setting, I've had colleagues from various places of employment say, I don't think you know your worth. You're under valued, etc. What exercises/tools have helped you realize your worth and effectively advocate for it? TIA!

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.

Flights cancelled and delayed; spent the whole day in the airport/flying. How do I charge my time?

Just as I'm leaving from work to a planned roadtrip with friends this weekend, I get hit with an email from a partner requesting a draft of a deck by Sunday 5 pm. Wwyd? I'm still a new consultant btw

So this might be a better place to post this and ask this question: Uncle D has announced explicitly that most people won’t get a pay raise & bonus this year except for those promoted and high performers. Amid this crisis, are companies including other big 3, MBB, FAANG, boutique consulting firms still giving high raises and issue stocks? Can you share the impact from your firm?

Shall I disclose reason for leaving a firm during my initial call with a recruiter from said firm, if I was laid off? Are they privy to that information. Ironically being recruited by that same firm

Insights into the best consulting firms for public service/ nonprofit work?

Does anybody have good electric standing desk recommendations? Ideally in the $200-300 range.

Definitely not a fan of Westin's "Eat Well" proposition. I'm working in the room at 2:00 AM and the most appetizing menu item is a cold turkey avocado and arugula wrap. I just want a burger and fries!

Potentially buying house (~ 30 year old ) which has a radon mitigation system put in 2006, the level currently is at 1.6 pci/L. I know EPA recommends below 4, but is this still elevated?

Help - how do I fight claims by scammer healthcare providers?

I recently went to 2 different providers.

Dentist, made appt via Zocdoc to see a dentist that was in network. Another dentist at the location saw me instead who was out of network. I have text evidence they said it would be covered before visit. Claim was denied - asking for ~500 dollars.

Saw a specialist who’s office staff verified my insurance would fully cover the claim. Get the claim, says they are out of network. Owe 600.

Imagine if consultants had to go through polygraph tests in commercial accounts, what would happen
