What's the weirdest thing someone has ever said to you at work? Trying to gauge what I just experienced on the richter scale.

Do managers tend to make a scene while you put your papers?

What are your tips on convincing a fellow employee not to switch agencies? I really don't want to compete with them

I just finished a big jury trial with a senior partner (SP). There were co-parties w/separate counsel. SP mentally checked out, to the point that co-counsel was asking what SP was doing/if SP was okay. I ended up handling most everything. SP did a few parts but went rogue and did things that were offensive/risky/bad for client. It became clear that SP is not performing like SP used to and may be a liability. Do I tell someone at my firm? Don’t want to offend SP or cause drama, but I’m concerned.

Could I pull off asking my manager from J1 for approval of freelancing on the side? It’s quite common anyway for designers I think. And then my j2 can be “freelance” even though it’s full time?

How do you handle rude clinicians in the workplace? I always have an attending talking down to me.

What is the worst reaction you’ve had after giving your notice? I just gave notice and I have never had a boss that tried as hard to make me change my mind as this one. Offered me basically anything I wanted.

My coworker always takes a super long lunch. How does he have the time to get anything done?

A creative team I started working with recently has decided to ignore my every comment. They take feedback from anyone else but me, and whenever I push them to make said changes, they just pick fights and make snarky comments. Anyone have any idea why this might be?

I know HR says you should report it but I’m paranoid that if I report a colleague that’s been harassing me, I’ll be viewed as a rat. (Most guys are immature/harmless but he’s actually being malicious)

Just posting as a reminder to LEAVE that job (within a reasonable time 😂) and go where the money is!

(p.s. I already know some of you have had higher increases in the same amount of time & I consider 6 months minimum is “within a reasonable time”)

Hi Fishers,

What is the best time of the year to be in the notice period?

I mean what is the time of the year where requirements in most of the companies are at pick?

Like in Dec and March you will see less requirement due to Christmas and financial year ending. Similar what is the best period?

Because in my previous switch, 15 days were wasted due to Christmas and in March lot of requirements went on hold due to financial year ending.

Thanks

Amazon Offer- Accept or decline?

Base: 75k
Sign-on: 43k
RSU: 825 shares
TC: 122k

Current TC: 98k
YOE: 6

Received an offer for non- tech CCM role and wondering if I should accept. I feel like I was lowballed and downleved despite having 6 YOE (relevant but not in tech). Not sure it will be beneficial to leave my current role for this offer to get my foot in the door.

I’m at the cap for salary at the level/role and can’t negotiate offer any higher.

Can anyone recommend any good recruiters that focus on the MENA region?

Yesterday’s debate was “a mess”, “a circus”? It was child’s play compared to what is in the WH right now. Or are you forgetting the last 3 years? This is *the* election to Vote Blue no Matter Who.

I just started a new job, they are asking me to lead training. I have no experience in the subject matter. Why me?

If everything is “asap”, nothing is “asap”

Should I read anything into the fact that since being laid off I’m finally sleeping well?

I left my job without having anything else lined up otherwise I would have had a mental breakdown. I’m not even in that great of a financial place, but it was my job or my sanity. I know at least three other people who, in the past few months, have left with nothing lined up. I feel like it’s something we need to be talking more about. This isn’t normal for people to be doing this right?

On vacation and hallucinating the Slack ping sound anytime it gets quiet.

After a year and a half of recruiters not responding and no job prospects I’ve finally got a call back - for a barista job. I guess advertising is not for me. Back to what I did in college

My partner refuses to flatulate during waking hours around me. I feel this lack of intimacy is cause for alarm. I calmly mentioned my concerns and she doesn't feel comfortable speaking about the subject. Any suggestions?

It makes me intensely uncomfortable when I hear people who should know better misusing the word “myself.” As in “please cc Kate and myself on your email.”

I didn’t make dalgona coffee when it was a trend earlier in quarantine and I’m not sure if I missed out on anything...

Gotta love when a client doesn’t catch their own mistakes until the final round and then asks why you fucked it up....
