Hi - I have donations given to Team Everest for Nov 2021 with receipt. But IBM AskHR says no support for donations tax exemption on Form 16. Thus, the donation isn't deducted on my Form 16. Can I now update the donation directly on E-filing.gov u/s 80G for exemption or will that cause an issue ? IBM

I have been working in the construction industry for 2 years under a general contractor. I am wanting to get into consulting and my ideal role would be something like an Associate in Major Projects Advisory with KPMG. I’m curious to know which firms/companies have positions and departments like the one mentioned that I could apply for?

That’s all it is. It has nothing to do with how good a teacher is, just on who voted for the most popular friends.

Yes, my thoughts exactly.
I would not like to see this where I work. We are educated professionals doing an important job. Adding what boils down to a popularity contest to our schools makes us seem like insecure teens trying to be in with the popular crowd, not intelligent, hard-working, professional adults. I feel like we should be working towards regaining respect and appreciation for our profession, not playing popularity games. But that is just me. 🤷♀️

Exactly! My thoughts 100%. If it was based on staff voting it might be a bit easier to accept. Of course, it would still be a popularity thing.
I think that would be degrading. Everyone works so hard. I think It would be nice to give recognition to everyone who works hard and puts in the time.

Our county does a teacher of the year at High School, Middle School, and Elementary levels. It is voted on by nominations, but I don't know how the final vote is determined
I get your concern about it turning into a popularity contest. Maybe if it’s tied to specific accomplishments or peer nominations, it could feel more meaningful.

So true! We just had a completion at our school, the tracher who won is super popular among the students (they voted). Other teachers had done a much better job, but the popular teachers won.

I agree with the idea that our would probably be more about the popular teachers more than quality.
