I recently ate my first slice of Benny Fierro's pizza (absolutely massive slice)...I'm fairly confident I could win their "eat a whole pie in 28 minutes" challenge. While I mentally prep, I'd like to try other spots. What are some good pizza shops in/around town?

Chris Stapleton might be a cool guy. Maybe he has some good music. But every time I hear him sing “drive on” during a Ram commercial I want to punch him in the face. Ram has overplayed that one.

What would be a competitive earning for a Director of Sales at a SaaS company in Israel?

I have a coworker who keeps spouting comparative odds and situations in regards to the safety of the vaccine. Such as: you're twice as likely to get hit by lightening than have blod clots from JJ. It's very annoying and I find it to be really inapprorpriate, maybe because it's pushy or just I find these comparative things to be a bit irrelevant. How does one handle something like that? Can you shut the person down without starting a spat?

Anyone here know anything about Unify Consulting? They reached about looking for senior roles to build their National Healthcare and Life Science vertical.

Hey Fishes, I feel the RTO policy in not getting enforced rather it is getting imposed it seems (in ZS across offices). Suddenly from being employee centric they have shifted their focus to ZS culture and values. Let the thoughts pour in!

Saw a job on LinkedIn applied for it and the CEO of the startup reached out to me saying he was game to move to the next stage of the process. Spoke to hiring manager and they even offered another position which matched my skills. Scheduled a full panel interview.

Hi everyone, I got laid off today and I am now urgently looking for a job. Anyone hiring Please DM or comment with any recommendations. I have real estate and consumer relations experience and I am looking to get into project management.

I’m maxing out my 401K, traditional IRA and HSA this year and paying for some house improvements. I have about $750K total investments and very close to $2M net worth, but realize that I am behind on investments if I want to do FIRE. I was focused on paying off huge chunks of my mortgage and managed to whittle it down to $75K left. Would you suggest I go ahead and pay that off this year? Or pause and do a mega back door roth instead? I’m mid 40s. Thanks!

Any agencies looking for a junior copywriter? Preferably remote.

Have you walked away from somebody you loved? And why?

First-year tax staff that started end of Q3, and just had my first year-end performance evaluation meeting. Still a blank slate in terms of tax experience, but I honestly do have a slight interest in international tax. Brought it up and I was given some names to find some work opportunities in that area. Besides SALT, any other specialized areas I should try to get some experience in? Also open to any tips and tricks to help tailor my workflow and experiences for the months to come.

Hello friends,

How is stratacent as a company to join?

I am about to finish a 6 month bootcamp and I am a single mum.

Anyone have favorite management books? New manager here 👋

Hi everyone, new here. I read a lot of genres.,mostly science or fantasy fiction (not fan fic 😂). Anyone here read similar genres? Right now I'm rereading the Dresden files and the Iron Druid books. Next up is probably David Weber's Honor Harrington novels.

Anyone else feel guilty about returning back to the same author over and over again? I feel like there are so many great writers out there but I keep coming back to Haruki Murakami.

Just finished Greenlights. Thought it was fantastic, but curious to hear other opinions about it.

As I am close to finishing Deep Work, I am thinking about how to apply its strategies in my own work. Deep Work sounds like I can reduce my overall time spent at work by 25-50% because of all the extra gobbly goo that goes on in corporate bloat. Has anyone done that? What are your thoughts on deep work methods?
