As an American Creative, has anyone had success in finding work overseas ?

I'm terrible at saying no, so instead I just say yes or be ambiguous enough that people take it as a yes. And I think it's taking a toll on my work recently. What's your advice? I'm afraid saying no is going to make the other person “lose face”, thus hurting our relationship.

I have trouble turning people down in the streets when they ask me for money. I was approached by some man I didn’t know at a gas station who asked for $20, and I sent it to him on cash app. Is this naive? I kinda felt unsafe in the moment, but also wanted to be a good person.

Trying to decrease my coffee intake. Also, I’d like to avoid dairy and vegan creamers (due to calories and sugars/gums/emulsifiers respectively).

Other that water and alcohol, what do you all suggest I try?

So this free $1000 check thing, who's eligible?

Fellow Desi Fish,

SO filling out passport renewal form. Finished CKGS, however in the form at the Indian Passport site - instead of leaving "PREVIOUS/CURRENT DIPLOMATIC/OFFICIAL PASSPORT" SO filled in a previous regular passport info. (To SO's credit, the phrasing was odd to ask for a previous passport)

SO unable to log back into the Indian Gov Passport site. Is this a deal breaker or would they give this mistype a pass?

Live in Boston. Generally happy but wonder what other cities may be best to settle in the long term. Real estate is very expensive in good school districts. Otherwise very clean and great place.

Moving to the Bay Area fall this year from the east. I’ll be working out of Los Gatos and my wife out of San Bruno we have two kids (4 and 2). Looking at the move to the west as short term (~2 yrs) and looking to rent a place for now (2 or 3 bedroom max). Anyone have recommendations on places around the Bay Area to rent so it’s an easy commute for my wife and me (max 3 days a week in the office) as well as for a family. Thoughts ?

Hi Everyone, need some initial help (and can consult a lawyer after for more information). I am seeing many people switch jobs to Tech despite being in the green card queue. I believe it’s sometimes possible to retain the original priority date despite changing jobs. Barring regulation change, I also have a never ending wait for my priority date to become current. Can you help me understand the factors I should consider before deciding to change jobs from Consulting to Tech? What are the risks?
