Perspective requested.
10 mths ago i was talking to an acquaintance (lives in IN, same age late 20s) and they were having a baby. I expressed my congratulations and during the convo said something like, โ€˜โ€ฆhere i canโ€™t bring myself to adopt a pup and youโ€™re prepared for such a big responsibilityโ€™. Everythingโ€™s cool.
Present: (randomly) they remind me of this and say they understood my intent but want to teach me that I was culturally inappropriate.
Thoughts?

Just wanted to share this with people who would understand. Had 4 IEP meetings last week. When the case manager asked one mother if she had any concerns she said her only concern was that her kindergarten son with autism loved me so much she was afraid of him being promoted and being out of my room. I told her not to worry, in our program I will have him for 2 more years. Boy that made me feel good.

NYC Freelancers! My Medicaid is ending soon and I need to start making health insurance decisions (lame). My current agency is offering me FT and Iโ€™m pretty terrified as I feel like Iโ€™m going to sell away my freedom. Their health insurance is pretty good and allows me to put my partner on it. Iโ€™m trying to also rationalize paying for my own in NYC but itโ€™s so expensive ($500+/mo). I go to the doctor fairly often. Single NYC freelancers (no kids), what do you pay monthly or yearly? Worth it?

I want to brag on my kid, but I donโ€™t want to embarrass him, so Iโ€™m doing it here. My college sophomore found out today that he ended up with a B in his accounting class - which is remarkable, given that he received a 50 on his first exam and a 70 on his second. Iโ€™m not sure Iโ€™ve ever seen him work this hard - and I couldnโ€™t be more proud. The grades that come easily donโ€™t impress me nearly as much as the ones that are hard fought.

Suppose you are 3 months pregnant and interviewing for a job. Would you disclose to the recruiter that you are expecting or is there no need to give that information until after being hired? As for the compensation, if youโ€™ve already been told pre-interview, the salary range for the role, is it appropriate to negotiate a number for the salary if you are asked your desired salary in the first screening interview? Or should you try to hold off on the negotiation after you receive an offer?
