It’s interesting how many ways there are to do things and that events typically are not a turn-key operation. Hearing all input can really help alleviate so called “challenges”. Each event takes different amounts of time to coordinate and plan so be flexible with your schedule. Trash cans are often forgotten about, details matter. Stay calm under all circumstances, especially in front of guests. Develop strong relationships and staying in touch pays off. Probably the most important piece of advice. You may need help later down the line! The events world is small and you will likely see and work with the person in a different capacity later down the line. Coordinate time off so you can be your best! The friends you make along the way you will have for years to come. Welcome and good luck!

If buy the partners you work with regularly a holiday gift, how much do you spend? Usually I get baked goods or food items which you can’t tell the actual amount spent on. This year, though, I’d like to support local restaurants by encouraging people to order takeout—hence, giving gift cards.

How much is appropriate for a restaurant gift card from an associate to a partner?

Need a sanity check here.

When I joined my current company, we were on a quarterly bonus structure with guaranteed payouts each quarter. This was, in fact, how the recruiter said he could meet my salary request.

The company just announced we are moving to annual payouts only, with no payments for 2023 until May 2024. There are no raises happening.

This amounts to 12% less money in my pocket in 2023 plus inflation.

Is this standard, or should I be looking for opportunities elsewhere?
