Being mad at me for a store closure in their area. I am approximately 500 miles away from you and the former store. I’ll gladly pass along your comments, but I don’t have that kind of pull. It was an older lady, so I did understand how frustrating that would be. The next closest location was an hour away. So mix of being annoyed but definitely still empathetic.

"this register isn't working, you're not working." I simply said "ok" and tried my best to help reduce stress in the situation...

I made it to regional manager for a franchise by age 22. Ran a successful financial practice & sold by the age of 33.

I’ve been told I would make a great COO someday and I’m ready to take the next step into leadership. Who/what should I be targeting next?

Hey guys! How difficult is it to get a job in big fours if you are on a dependent visa? ( prior experience of 2 years in big four in India)

Currently a first year staff in Risk Advisory in a Mid-Tier Firm hoping to move to Big 4 for either Risk or Cyber. When would be the most appropriate time to make the change? I heard that Senior Staff in mid-tier would most likely be hired as an “Experienced Hire” in Big 4. So would it be smarter to make the move now as a first year staff since I’ll be considered Experienced Hire anyway?

Hi fishes,

Service bAsed companies are not releasing offers nowadays. I have left looking for offers from any of service based companies. Except TCS, All are frauds and TCS won’t pay much anyway so done. They will lure you to give interviews and later when all rounds are done and docs are submitted, they will come and say we can’t pay you. I have faced the same with capegemini, tech Mahindra, infosys, cognizant. Is this the case with anyone ? Or am I the only one with bad luck

Back when I was getting started in the food world, I worked flipping burgers at In-n-Out. A man came in and said the burgers he had gotten weren’t right. He dumped the food on the counter and then he started throwing them back behind the counter. We gave him a refund and then his demeanor completely changed. He was calmer and he told us to have a great day as he left us to clean up the mess he made.
